iphone Power on 3G radios using url request not working

Question

using sdk 3.1.2 on iphone

I am using the following code to activate the 3G connection but it doesn't seem to be working, anyone know what i need to do

NSURLConnection *conn = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest: [NSURLRequest requestWithURL: [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"]] delegate:self]; [conn cancel];

What do you mean by "activate the 3G connection"? Also, accept some answers. You've received 14 answers to your 10 questions and have accepted zero of them. That's rude. — ceejayoz
Hi, I am sorry i didn't realise about accepting the answers. i mean power on the radios as they power off every so often. If using Reachability its the situation where WWAN is reachable but a connection is required so i tried requesting a connection as above and then cancel straight away but it doesn't work. — tech74

Why are you calling:

[conn cancel];

Shouldn't you do:

[conn start];

or something that actually tries to open the connection?
