ARCHIVED: With a BlackBerry, what does the error message "Data Connection Refused" mean?

The error message "Data Connection Refused" indicates that your BlackBerry device is unable to connect to your cellular carrier network, possibly because:

• Your carrier did not correctly set up your device to use the wireless network.
• Your carrier is experiencing network problems.
• Your device no longer has service with your carrier.

To resolve this problem, contact the support staff for your BlackBerry carrier or vendor. If you purchased your device through UITS, staff may be able to assist you in contacting the vendor.
