@skipo87:Ayo i was rather surprised.i nver know u were d one.long time.hw ar u doing?i do see Babs once in a while in RCF.ar u still on IT?i was just wondering who is dis person shouting my name.we got to gis more.what is ur yahoo msg id?

ok honsule i got a new celtel sim and tried the procedure u gave me using a friend's phone,n yes it worked! but there's a problem,it actually browsed on my friend's phone(se k700) but when i put the sim on my fone and i entered d apn: wap.ng.celtel.com, d Browser icon came up but my phone does not browse,i tried opera mini but no show.now i'm 100% sure d sim is active but i think i need to input web settings and not wap settings on my phone since has only web browser.honsule pls can u help me wit d web settings i need it very badly.thanx

u cannot use opera mini to browse with wap setting,am having the same problem.for your info the only difference between wap &web setting is d APN:internet.ng.celtel.com.i stand to be corrected.but the major issue is that,your line MUST be internet enable.read the thread under MOTOROLA C975 by skipo87.check your wap setting very well.in fact post your wap setting so that i can see whether it is correct.or better still use the web setting that Lotuken sent to your email.

Is this really true? hummmmmmm!

@bimbor: you can try using your APN as access!wap, thats wat a friend of mine using the kind of your fone is using and his browsing with his fone.

@honsule is rigth you can only use internet gprs to for those heavy apps.

remeber setting your proxy port to 8080.

@bimbor were do you stay in slere cos i stay tthere to . infact i stay at aguda to be precise.

@honsule tx d settings jare i can browse and all for free and it's even more faster than b4

Can you believe that i have sent the text to +232, they gave me a setting but the line is not connected, WHy i said the line is not connected is because i can't see G) icon. Can you give procedure to activate only the line (My phone has the setting so no need.

@honsule. What do you mean by kudos to SKIPO87. Is that what i will text to +232 because i have use my phone model they send me setting but the line is not activated.

@bimbor

try this: for the phone setting.
Access name: Access!WAP
Access point: wap.ng.celtel.com
proxy: enabled
proxy post number: 8080
ip address: 172.018.254.005
home page: wap.ng.celtel.com
after imputing this settings on your phone then activate it 4 your web.

i have recieved the settings even though i do browse before but the G has not shown on my phone must i wait for another 5mins as you 've said earlier
