APN settings not correct

I have an unlocked tmobile sidekick 2 and i have at&t service. it keeps telling me GPRS is not available and im thinking its because the APN address is for tmobile and not for AT&T. it says to contact the carrier before changing that address or i might lose connection, but i dont have connection as it is!!!

Network data

Dont be stupid... you dont have to call anyone... ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS, hold the top left button (the one one that looks like three little bars) and with the screen flipped open press the letter L on the keypad. So while holding the top left button hit the letter L.
