Xperia L Internet Issues

[Hanaero]

I bought Xperia L yesterday and I have encountered some problems with this phone

1) My phone won't connect to the internet, Wi-Fi working perfectly but I can't connect using data connection, I have tried using another SIM Card but still I can't get through to the internet, my Original SIM Card works well on another phone (Xperia E).

2) The phone only shows Edge signal, I have another Sony phone (Xperia E) and it shows HSDPA network (same provider and I have tried swapping the SIM Card), but my phone only get the Edge signal (sometimes I get 3G/HSDPA network but only for a second).

The second problem doesn't matter but the first one is the critical one, what is the point of having a phone that can't connect to the Internet? Please Sony, Is there any solution for this?

Try the following.

Menu > Settings > Xperia > Internet Settings >  Accept disclaimer > select network carrier.

Once this has been done, try accessing the Internet.

I have done the instructions except for the last one, after I downloaded the Internet Settings it only says "Internet & MMS settings Installed" and then no select network carrier.

fyi, I still could connect to the Internet when the signal shows H+/3G network, but it is very very very rare, is there any other solution for this or is this an hardware problem?

In my case, the "H+" comes on top and then disappears every short while... This is just so infuriating and I cannot do anything with my applications...

Then I used a friend's sim card and found out that it is working perfectly well...

So, I went to my network provider, and asked him to give me a new sim... I found out that, with a tangible feel of misery, that it still did not work...

So, once I came back to my place, I put a different service providers sim card into my phone... And I found that it works PERFECTLY... 

Is it a problem with my phone number??, It is quite inexplicable to me... I cannot find fault with the device as other sim cards worked perfectly in the device... Is it a problem with my network provider... no cos I tried inserting my friends sim (from the same network provider) and it worked but did not work when I took a new sim with the same number (my number)...

@susanshieh - In this case you would be best to speak with your current network provider and have them send the settings through for you.
