It used to connect, but now says The page you are looking for cannot be
found.
Tried a bunch, like google, yahoo, a few others I view regularly.
Its on Telusmobility.
It shows I'm connected, just wont access any pages.
Any Ideas what is going on?

The best way to find out is to install VXUtil Personal from  
http://www.cam.com and check. You can check what is the IP address you are  
receiving from the network: maybe for some reason you are not connecting  
properly. After that, you can try to ping the sites and see what response  
you get.
 
Best would be to contact Telusmobility support.... maybe they have changed  
something in the network or in your account.

Follow Helio's advice and download VxUtil. Use it to ping a known host  
(www.wired.com for example). If it works then you can probably try  
recreating a couple of configuration files on your Pocket PC - these have  
funny names and sometimes are deleted by mistake.
 
On your Pocket PC open File Explorer and browse to \Windows
Find welcome.exe and tap on it to execute
Follow the instructions
Soft reset the device and try again
 
Also, make sure your account is enabled to use data services - contact the  
operator for this.
 
Good luck

Ok, tried a soft reset, that worked. Still wonder why it did that.
