IPhone 4 has 3G connectivity but can’t access internet

cellular-dataiphone

Just last week, my access to the internet over mobile data networks has stopped working. I've already talked to my operator, and they gave me a new SIM card and tested that 3G works in another phone with it.

Basically the operator is expecting this to be an antenna failure, which seems odd as I still get full connection bars, WiFi works flawlessly and my 3G does transport e-mails, just nothing else (like opening websites).

I do have 21M/2M speed, so the connection isn't just clogged.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

If nothing comes up, I will probably have to get a new antenna and install it myself.

I've discovered that SSH connections are working on 3G. This is becoming really weird…
