HTC Wildfire and Meteor WAP settings

I set up my friend's Wildfire a few weeks ago after he couldn't connect through the mobile network.

Just go to Settings>Wireless & networks>Mobile network, turn that on, and don't bother messing around with another settings. That worked for me.

I went to Meteor yesterday and terrible service "Looks like the antenna is damaged" to "Oh your running 2.2 firmware, 3G wont work on that you have to get it put back to 2.1" WTF. So rang HTC (Local number) couldnt be more helpful got it sorted in 5 mins. Up and running :D

The phone i got was sim free so it had no settings on it, and at the time I didnt understand where to go about getting the settings. I did try the setting that were on the link in my first post, but still didnt get it going. HTC got me to Access Point Names and to make a new new APN and then from there put the setting in and to put the APN Type to "Default"
