In the Additional intialization commands field, type *99***1#.

and got a (fast) connection.

BUT:
It does not matter, which URL I put in, I always get directed to

https://my.t-mobile.com/Login/?rc=&d...2fDefault.aspx

Here, I may connect to (my) account informations, but that's it!
There is no "options" or something like that to activate data service...
Have you tried using your phone's data connection instead? I'm not sure if standard phone data will work on a laptop w/ these new plans, hence they mention separate mobile broadband plans below.
