Inability To Browse Using Airtel Mobile Internet On Nokia C2-01 by Kolping: 4:32pm On Jan 11, 2012
Hello All,

I'm unable to browse on my Nokia C2-01 phone using Airtel's mobile internet data plan. Anytime I attempt to use the Opera Mini. I have sent the required message to Airtel's number 232 - internet nokia c2-01 and used the configuration settings they sent.

The error message I got from Opera Mini was: Failed to connect to the Internet.

Could anyone help me out?

Thanks for your reply.

This is the path I took:

Settings->Connectivity->Packet data->Packet data conn.->Always online

Settings->Connectivity->Packet data->Packet data settings->Active access point->Access point 1

Settings->Connectivity->Packet data->Packet data settings->Edit active access point->Alias for access point->Access point 1

Settings->Connectivity->Packet data->Packet data settings->Edit active access point->Packet data access point->internet.ng.zain.com

Is there anything else I'm missing out?

I've also used the following settings:

Settings->Configuration->Default config. sett. -> ZAIN NIGERIA

Settings->Configuration->Act. def. in all apps.

Settings->Configuration->Preferred access pt.->Zain Mobile Internet

Settings->Configuration->Personal config. sett. ->(empty)

Also

Internet->Web settings->Configuration sett.->Configuration->Default or ConfigContext or ZAIN NIGERIA? Which one am I to choose out of the three?
