can't connect to the internet anymore

hi there,

i've got a jailbroken 1.4 iphone working on an orange contract in the UK.

everything was working fine but now i can't use any of the internet services.

i think it may have started after i connected to wi-fi at my work. for a while safari kept going to the user login page rather than google. so maybe i didn't logoff or close it down properly?

i've turned of wi-fi but i don't know how it's trying to connect or what's going on.

it often gives me the error:

''safari can't open the page because the network connection was lost''

this maybe a reception thing but it never seems to work wherever i am.

can anybody tell me what's gone wrong?

cheers

Settings/General/Network/EDGE

Check that the correct Orange settings are in there
