YouTube doesn't have a downloadable app for the E63 yet, so I have to watch videos through the browser.

When I'm connected through a wifi hotspot, the videos are playing fine. However, if I try to do it over UMTS, when I click the link to the video, it starts Realplayer, hangs for a minute, then evenutally errors out saying "Unable to connect".

Anyone else have this problem? I don't think it's a timeout problem, UMTS should be fast enough.

That's the different between an Access Point (wifi hotspot) and BTS (Base Transceiver Station) for cellular communication (bts are usually mounted up in towers).An Access Point is only to handle a single communication,DATA.While at the same time a BTS have to handle up to 3 communication,VOICE,TEXT and DATA.Since providers main bussiness is VOICE communication,thay always put it as first priority.This mean if at the same time a huge numbers try to make phonecalls,DATA (internet) connection will defeated to let Voice goes through BTS.Voices are connected,and Data disconnected.
