How-To-Use-MTN-BIS-ON-Computer

Recently, I shared a post on how anyone can use their BlackBerry device as Modems. From my research I learnt that our MTN BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) cannot be use for pinging, chatting and for other BlackBerry services alone. I learnt that it can be use to browse and download unlimitedly on computers without any limitation. When I found this, I was happy because at least this will save me from some expenses a bit.

Today, I want to share with you the method to use your MTN BIS with your computer. This method will save you from subscribing on your Modem and BB at the same time. The softwares we are going to use for these are UltraSurf and FreeGate. Though there are many softwares we can use for this stuff but am going to be updating the post with new softwares as I continue with my research. Below is a simple explanation on how to use and get the software.
How to Use Your MTN BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS) on Your Computer
#1. You must first subscribe to the MTN BIS. This can be done by sending BBC to 21600 (#1,500 / Month) or BBC WEEK to 21600(#500 / Week) through text.
#2. After that a subscription confirmatory message will be sent to you, then connect your BB with your computer or Insert your Sim card into your Modem.
#3. You need to create a new connection profile on your BlackBerry Desktop Manager or Modem using the following:

Access Point: blackberry.net
Username: web
Password: web

If the above Access Point doesn't work, you can try

Access Point: web.gprs.mtnnigeria.net
Username: web
Password: web

After proper configuration, then connect.
