Hi All:
I've reviewed most if not all doc and threads on specifying networks for http connection. (Special thanks Peter Strange)
I need clarification on behavior if no suffix is provided (example: Connector.open("www.blackberry.com")
This is supposed to default to Connector.open("www.blackberry.com;deviceside=false") - an MDS/BES connection
On my Storm V4.7.0.75, no suffix works but ";deviceside=false" does not work.
Since my Storm is not part of enterprise network neither should work....
Am I missing something?

Solved! Go to Solution.

Verizon is an exception, they have a direct TCP stack available on the device.

Yes the Storm is on Verizon.
Exceptions... exceptions...
Oh what a wonderful world!
Thanks, RexDoug

Stevie,
You are asking a much broader question.
Look at Peter Strange post on first page of this forum for
threads that address your question.
I don't have enough experience to give a "best practice".

Use CoverageInfo to determine the best connection, as outlined in Peter's post.
You will still prefer BES if available, or BIS-B if you are approved to use it. Otherwise, you would select ";deviceside=true" with no APN info (for this particular carrier).
