About that using glo line as a modem for laptop internet connection,i just set up the connection manually on the laptop as usually(using *99# as the dial up number) and i made glogwap my default browser setting on my mobile and it was up.however,i didnt stay up for long cos i didnt want glo to whip my cash... Although i think they charge #20 per kb 12am-6am.<reference_gosmartmobile.com>* % note% i think you have to call glo customer care to demand for the service for full internet connection using phone as modem;i m not sure cos i didnt request for it myself,the glo line i use for surfing was given to of by a friend. Probably,he had done that but i dont know sha,though i l try it when i get another line sha... Peace alllll... |

The line you used is most def a postpaid line cos prepaid lines can't connect to PC. |

About the manual configuration stuff,for phones which cant get the push message automaticaly,it is no big deal.once you know the settings,its just as easy as imputing the settings on the phone yourself. What people still dont understand is that you might have correctly put the settings on your phone but your glo line might not have been provisioned for the service. So it is necessary you call their customer care service to inquire if they have provisione ur line for the service.(unlike mtn that you l just send a text "settings" to 3888. Talking about manual configuration,some phones cannot be manually configured for browsing services other than the company's service. Some might give room for other manual settings but of which you must enter the company's homepage first before accessing ur bookmark or entering your url... Other types can allow for any line of settings(mostly nokia,samsung etc...)... Most nec phones i have seen cannot be configured manually with other settings. |

hi all...still on that last discussion i think the settings for glo full internet differs from the usual wap setting...see gosmartmobile.com for further details.. |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by mamba(m): 7:07am On Dec 11, 2005 |
The settings for glodirect is diffrent from glowap.. Maybe you should check your own settings and post it here, let's do some tweaking and see if we can browse on PC with it.. I heard a rumour that glo is planning to start free night browsing.. |

Hi all...mamba sorry for the break in com,the settings for the glo on pc is the same as that on the previously written site...a friend of mine had got it set up for quite a while but i dont like using glo for the surfing now since i still got a free option.,but its connection rate is quite cool... talking about the general status of the gprs connection speed on all the lines,i think we have to reverse our previous statement about mtn...they have been doing really fine for about a month now.with very little hassles...glo still remain as usual,undisputed for now,as for v-mobile,i actually just arrived from school and there is no vmobile signal there, so i m just trying to access its own speed,although i m posting with it now...still no news from mtel now.those who claim to have the settings for it should be proud to come out with it 1st,else i believe its a blatant lie for now...............*some news for seun-i have noticed for long now that one cannot login with mtn,but can do with the rest. |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by dennizman(m): 7:41pm On Dec 18, 2005 |
Hi all...it seems the formally hailed vmobile is now f***ing up. Their service is either too slow or completely unavailable...as for mtn,they are far better than before but of recent the case is always "http error:connection timeout."...the service no doubt is available,but it is always sending the above server error...all hands are still up for glo. No news still for the proposed 3g dreamers who havnt even got their normal gprs to work, mtel"...we are still waiting for our rumour mongers |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by dennizman(m): 7:49pm On Dec 31, 2005 |
Hi guys its been quite a long time. Our service providers have been trying i would say at the moment. Mtn is not doing bad,so is glo and vmobile is also far from the rest,only that it sends too much of errors when trying to access some sites. No words still on mtels claim of gprs service,or is anyone having any clues...not lies sha! |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by dennizman(m): 7:56am On Jan 03, 2006 |
guys vmobile at the instant is as fast as flash...perhaps its because its just some minutes to 8am ,and there is less traffic now...glo still has its hardly-interrupted gprs signal on, while mtn is also cool but fluctuating...good day all nairaland users. |

Hello Everyone, I use a Siemens CX65 and currently having problems sending mms, I have requested for mms activation, and the settings have been sent to my phone but it still doesnt work. My gprs is working quite fine, have been wapping since the day it got activated, but it's just the mms. The only data missing in the settings is the "Relay Server URL" . I looked up a MTN MMS profile and found this info was there but on the Vmobile MMS Profile it isnt. Can anyone heeeellllpp? |

Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by ncpat(m): 4:36pm On Feb 11, 2006 |
there is a mistake some people who which to configure glo sim card to browse is making generally, first, your sim card must be activated to browse by glo network before your phone can work with those configuration, formally to activate you send "ACTIVATE" TO "927" for GPRS and "ACTIVATE" to "667" for MMS and wait for a confirmation sms that will take more that a month, mine took me almost two months but now you can do that on glo website,click on glomobile internet and fill the info. and just a week your sim will be activated, mostly if you are using nokia you will see a G sign on top of your phone sreen indicating presents of GPRS and this will only occure when your sim is activated, http://www.gloworld.com/GloMobile/?Cn=GloMobile |

http://www.vmobile-nigeria.com/wap%20settings.htm hi there, i have all the wap settings for vmobile on my phone(nokia 3120)but i still can't browse. i called vmobile and was asked to send sms to 184. i told them i already have all the wap parameters on my phone but the person that attended to me still insisted i should send the sms. well, any suggestions? |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by Seun(m): 6:13pm On Mar 07, 2006 |
Why not send the SMS and see what happens? Does your phone indicate GPRS reception? |
Re: Comparing Vmobile, MTN, Glo and MTEL GPRS Browsing by gentleone(f): 4:08pm On Mar 08, 2006 |
