can anyone else confirm or deny that youtube using a blackberry 9700 connected to 3G is working or not working? or is it just me, i get wireless network connection has been disconnected. please try again error but it will work when connected to wifi

I have a Bell 9700, but I'm on Telus towers and it works fine for me.

Telus support via twitter tells me that this is a known issue with my Bold 9700 as of weeks ago with no ETA for resolution

having the same issue

I too am having the same issue. YouTube worked fine on my storm, but my 9700 has the same issue as you. I called Telus, they told me to download a youtube app. Same problem.

Telus then told me that "they only provide the internet, if something doesn't work,it's not their problem". I reminded them that they advertise their smartphones as being able to access youtube. They issues a ticket number over a week ago, but problem still hasn't been fixed. Youtube works fine on the phone when I'm on wifi, which tells me its a problem with their network settings.

Also, if I tether my computer to my phone, youtube works fine, its really weird.

I can only get youtube if I use the wap browser. For some reason the 9700 just doesn't like youtube. I've checked all the settings. No luck other than using wap browser.
