It is expensive to use a mobile phone only to make calls and exchange SMS messages. It is much more profitable to communicate by e-mail, use ICQ, Jabber and Mail. Ru Agent. To do this, you need to correctly configure Internet access in your phone.
Instructions
Step 1
Make sure your phone has a dedicated access point (APN) to access the internet. If the device supports work only with an access point designed for WAP, it is not profitable to use it to access the Internet. This phone should be changed immediately.
Step 2
Make sure you have an Internet access service connected. If you are not sure about this, call the operator's support service and ask the corresponding question to the consultant. If necessary, tell him who the number is registered to and ask him to activate the service.
Step 3
Even if your phone supports an Internet access point, it may be configured with WAP access settings by default. Check it out, and if it turns out that your concerns were not in vain, the phone will have to be reconfigured.
Step 4
The easiest way to reconfigure your phone is to request an auto configuration message. To do this, you will also have to call your carrier's support team. Explain clearly to the consultant that you need the settings specifically for the Internet, and not for WAP. When the consultant sends you a configuration message, open it and activate the settings. Then make sure they really match the APN for the internet and not the WAP.
Step 5
Some phones are provided with lists of ready-made access configurations for different operators. In most cases, options for both WAP and Internet settings are given for each operator. Choose the one that matches your operator and APN for the Internet. Then make sure that the configuration you choose actually meets this requirement.
Step 6
Finally, you can set up an Internet access point yourself. The recommendations necessary for this can be obtained on the operator's website. They can also be dictated to you by a support consultant. In this case, you also need to make sure that you have configured an access point specifically for WAP, and not the Internet. Remember that for some operators, if there is an error in the configuration, access to the network still works, but they are charged according to WAP rates.
Step 7
If the GPRS still does not work after the correct configuration of the phone, restart the device.
Step 8
Ask if your operator provides unlimited access for a small monthly fee. Activate this service if desired.
