m.youtube.com from ATT/Cingular
While putting together the YouTube linking support on Mowser I noticed something odd. If I bring up a video from m.youtube.com while using the cellular connection in my N95 the flash player errors out before the video starts up, but if I connect over wifi the video plays through no problem. I don’t want this to turn into yet another carrier behavior rant, so I’m just going to ask if anyone knows why that would be and what I need to do to get that fixed.

I wonder if your default settings for Real (presumably set to WiFi) are not switching over when you are connected from ATT…

You could be right Jonathan, the default access point was set to the AP with a proxy (configured by the Nokia online configurator). I swapped it to the proxyless one I have configured everywhere else and it seems to be working. I wonder why swapping the access point to wifi within the web application made it work however, but the setting for the cellular access point didn’t carry over?

Think it’s because that proxy is seriously lame. I use a modified proxy myself… seems you are much better off without it unless you need access to the ATT WAP site which is only available through the proxy.

Miker, I tested m.youtube.com with the N75 I have around (3G). I am using a “Proxyless” access point and it seems to work just fine.

Its fixed, Friday is was still down and I just checked again. Looks like the wap gateway was having trouble these past few days. The wap.cingular APN pipes traffic through the GW, looks like an RTSP issue.
