Blackberry UMA mode, list of error codes, and suggestions

My TMobile Blackberry 9700 Bold, and previously Blackberry 8320 Curve support UMA from TMobile. This is an interesting service that allows you to connect to a WiFi Access point and pretend you are on a cellular network. In other words, calls, SMS, email etc, all use the WiFi.

For me this is great for when I visit my parents in Toronto, and I can make US calls from their house, using UMA over their WiFi.

However, I find that it suddenly stopes working for no apparent reason and I get a plethora of different error codes. Most often that it cannot get the DNS name of the UMA server. But of course I can.

I find I need to reboot the router to get it working. This issue has happened through my Dlink 614+ router and Buffalo NFiniti new router.

Anyway, I was wondering if there was a list of the various error codes, with their meanings, and possible resolutions.

Answer 894

I had same issues with my UMA on same phone. I have since switched to a Netgear WNDR3700 and connection has been very stable since.
