I did do it through installer. What I mean is, after installing "T-mobile T-Zones Proxy" from the Surreal Networks source via installer, it screws up my wifi connection on the iPhone. The result is when I try to load a page in Safari, I get the message "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server". I also get other failure messages from all of the other apps that require an internet connection. I don't get edge where I'm doing the mod so I don't know if the mod works in that respect. I've tried turning wifi off and then back on again.

Now I guarantee I will not be the only one to have this problem. If you look at the preferences.plist file you'll see it is quite a bit different from the original. I'm using 1.1.2 so that's the preferences.plist I'm comparing it to. The original is about a third larger in size. I think something is either changed or missing that is needed to get it to work with my router. If that's the case, I suspect people will find they run into trouble other places, even if it works at home.

I was able to get everything working correctly by removing the preferences.plist that the this mod uses and replacing it with an edited version of the original. I followed the edit instructions here: http://limitededitioniphone.com/t-mo...-edge-settings

After editing preferences.plist I needed to change its permissions to 644 in order to get it to work. Just to check, I uninstalled the "T-mobile T-Zones Proxy" mod via Installer and reinstalled it to see if maybe it was a permissions thing. I did find that it installs with 0 permissions so that alone would seem to make it not work, but changing the permissions didn't fix it. Re-installing my edited version of preferences.plist fixed it.

End result, after walking half a mile to a location where I get edge, test confirms it works with my edited preferences.plist combined with the proxy.pac that the mod in this thread installs.
