Damn. Read your post and got optimistic. No such luck. Still getting the #4 error, here in Los Angeles

Except for getting a lousy signal on Monday in places I usually get good ones, I've been able to connect fine throughout LA, particularly the South Bay/LAX area. You're frustrated, I'm sure, especially since the reg 4 error [if I remember correctly] is just an IP reassignment - which requires contact w/ YY. I feel for you.

Is LA OK?

convbcuda and pusfarm, you've both given me a morsel of hope. My trip on Friday (for which I need my wireless connection) is to LA. If you got connectivity there, maybe I will too.

Yada not nada

I actually spoke with Eric Nix this morning and he helped reset my IP address. Now I am back up and going. I still have trouble getting the Yada browser to connect consistently, but things are going.

He told me that Yada and ATT had to work something out, and their systems are back up.

I still personally have mixed feelings as to whether YY will be around in another 2-3 months, but for now I am a loyal user.

There are beginning to be many more alternatives out there for CDPD service. I spoke to an ATT person and they told me of about 5 of them. But every day there seems to be more coming on board. I am not sure I know why since there will be a much faster service out there next year that will make CDPD as it is now obsolete. I guess these other providers want to get customers to switch over to this other services later.

How did you get in touch with him, i.e. how long before he called back? I tried e-mail a few days ago and left a message with the answering service first thing this morning. I'm sure a change to my IP setting would solve the problem.

Never mind

Just got the call from Eric :-) My problem was slightly different as I've got Verizon service and not AT&T. Apparently someone assigned by IP number to someone else on 4/5. But now that that's fixed - I'm all good to go. Great normal connection from the South Bay/LAX. Yay!!!!

Called YY this afternoon.

Got a phone call back 10 minutes later. Eric on the line.

Verizon seems to be the culprit, we reassigned to an AT&T IP address, I was up within seconds. Hmm, just to think I was going to call Verizon for direct service.

Again, I am very happy to have service from YY (since I have become numb to the Fatal Exceptions)

Yada 4.0

BTW, Eric told me that they were probably going to upload the flash version of 4.0 tonite, so that you could replace the version on the Minstrel

Until I get my E&B case [sometime this year, hopefully!] I've been using the cheap Visor slip case. I put the antenna in "head first" [so that the screw base is sticking out] along the side and then slide the Prism in. The screw base is even with the Prism and is not too obnoxious.

Problem

I have called YY numerous times and left messages with the answering service. No one had called me back yet!
I hope to hear from Eric soon!!!

Reg Error 4

If you receive this error (Reg 4) you must call Yada Yada and have them reset your IP address. This is a problem with AT&T and not Yada Yada. The company is not going out of business.

Hooray!

Hallelujah!

Me too. Just called 1-800-yadayada and Eric answered the phone. I told him that he's a hero here on the discussion board. He reset my IP address (apparently he's been doing hundreds) and now I'm up and running too!
I'm VERY happy.
(P.S. He said the head of Yada has sent a message to Visorcentral today about the state of the company, but it probably hasn't been posted yet. He says they're still open for business. So news is coming...)
