I have even connected my p910i to my PC via a cable and using my phone as a GPRS modem.....
MTN has finally woken up o!!!

Yesssso its working everybody, but i observed it depends on your sim, not all sim has the gprs activated, i want you all to do something, check your sim code, mine has PHC, this means Port Harcourt, it is not gprs activated, my sisters own has LAG, which means lagos and i browsed with it all weekend. If your code is Lagos, then recharge and check your browsing.

does it work everywhere in nigeria or in a few cities?

we don't know yet but i'm sure it's suppose to work everywhere there's MTN coverage

How is the tariff? Is it only through another pc we can browse the net or we can also browse through the mobile phone like glo? How do we connect our phone with a cable to the pc? What type of cable and what brand and type of mobile phones? I mean what are the facilities such phone must have? pls let us more into it

Hey guys, I don't seem to know how to configure this yet.

@mamba & Angelgirl, could you guys help me out with it. I use Sendo SV663 phone.

Pls don't let this pass me by.

There should be information from MTN in order to update customers.
If the SIM is with LAG code can it work anywhere?

For instance, Can my SIM with LAG code work in any of the MTN coverages?

Does the GPRS covers everywhere?

Give out the configuration. i know of the Circuit Switch Data CSD (GSM Data)
That I have been using to browse. The tariff is the same as making call. it is either per second or per minute charging.

I was in lagos over the weekend, I saw a flash of gprs in my hand set but I could not make calls with my sim until I got out of the coverage area. MTN Why? Please I need help.

i got a glo line and used it for wap browsng l8r i was told that i was owing hw can i check mw much im owing

does it work if u dont have any credit on yur phone but have access days?

It's in the paper! and it is working!

I looks like the great Liars were telling the truth after all

Yes its in the papers but i'm yet to receive my configuration settings so its not uhuru yet

MTN cannot configure some phones, its so annoying they make this business seem so strange in Nigeria.

About the MTN GPRS setting, in my girlfriend phone, though she use Motorola V (Something) Flip Phone and not camera, but it is GPRS enabled. We sent the word (SETTINGS) to 4777, and you will receive a message welcoming you into MTN Sightz and Soundz. They would instruct you to save the setting and to send an MMS to your own phone first so as to enable you receive MMS in future. And as am typing, the service is free.

She has downloaded some ringtones and Pictures. And I myself has also check my box from the phone and it was ok.

Please help us beg Vmobile to follow trait.

4777? I thought the number was 3888.

yeah 3888 and 4777. you can use either.

Vmobile are currently working on their own gprs.

Have u heard about Voffice: A means of using ur sim card to browse.

I don't have much information yet but i read in one of their article recently. I will pass the information across as soon as i get it.

Pls can anyone help me with the csd settings of mtn...i need to see its own ways browsing related-.peace

all sagem phones read the presence of gprs services, wether on your own network or not.mtn is stricktly 2g, and can never have gprs wihtout upgrading to 2.5g like glo.

well the mtn gprs is not fake perse,its just slow and difficult to connect...i hav tried it and it worked okay on my phone...

MTN GPRS is not fake . It actually works on most nokia phones but not samsung.

Yeah it works better with Nokia phones

I pray that mtn should wake up be like other network so that we all can enjoy it.

yanky man, out of these 3 networks in terms of mobile internet. the best is MTN while the worst is (***). u know why?  MTN is 24hours free. but glo, u might be browsing, fine, your credit does not go immediately,after it shows N0.00 maybe if you stayed there for long. someone would think its all over. the next time, you recharge your glo line lets say with N500 and the next thing you see is N85.20 course someone you would be suprised on seeing that. so what i'l say is that
I pray that others should wake up and and be like MTN so that we all can enjoy it.

Hi ppl this is my first post. I hav tried all the MTN settings for GPRS but my phone still wont browse. I even tried the "setting- 3888" but got no reply. Surprisingly when i change the sim to Vmobile my phone detects GPRS even without the settings installed. Can anyone pls help coz i plan to change my SIM coz of this. By the way i use an LG G5600/ L3100.

yes, browsing with MTN SIM  card on your PC is true, but pending on your sim card which even MTN does`nt know the course and the code problem b`because I have 2 mtn sim with the code ABJ which is abuja but one of them is working and the other does`nt work but my observation is that it is only the the 2G sim card that is working and the 2.5G sim does`nt work now but they were all working initiacially when MTN started the GPRS service so therefore there is no GPRS SERVICE available except WAP SERVICE which is suitable for 2G SIM, so for those of you that are lucky having the GPRS service, here is the setting on your computer operating with window XP.
Go to control panel and click NETWORK AND INTERNET CONNECTION
2.CLICK NETWORK CONNECTIONS
3.CLICK CREATE A NEW CONNECTION
4.A WINDOW WIZARD WILL SHOW THEN CLICK NEXT
5.CHOOSE CONNECT TO THE INTERNET THEN CLICK NEXT
6.CHOOSE SET UP MY CONNECTION MANUALLY THEN CLICK NEXT
7.CHOOSE CONNECT USING A DIAL-UP THEN CLICK NEXT
8.ISP NAME : TYPE ANY NAME FOR THIS CONNECTION (eg  mtn access)
9.PHONE NUMBER:*99# (THEN CLICK NEXT)
10.USER NAME:web PASSWORD:web CONFIRM PASSWORD: web (click next)
11.thick add shortcut to my desktop then click finish
12. A CONNECTION WINDOW WILL APPEAR THEN CLICK DIAL AND YOU CONNECTED AND FEEL FREE TO BROWSE THE WEB AS IT IS FREE FOR NOW. FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL ME ON 08065942445

MTN WAP doesnt work on the new 0806 numbers I tried it and no luck
