I guess by now your should be asking yourself "why do I need to bother myself using the Blackberry Internet service (BIS) when there are various data bundles available for your Java / symbian smartphones?".
Well, the need varies, If you are an internet Geek that spend lots of time on the net, you will realise this internet data bundles will not cover up much of your data usage except if you are ever ready to keep spending more. But i wonder why the need to spend more when you can get it at a cheaper rate.
In the case of a blackberry mobile user, it is very possible for you to get access to the internet with unlimited data for a whole month at a very cheap rate, whereas on the normal data bundles you will be allocated a certain data size (mostly 200mb/month) which is so unfair.
So because of this, we have to take our chances and enjoy the blackberry subscription plan on our mobiles too.
All you need is just to subscribe for the BIS normally like a blackberry user then move to your phone (symbian) configuration and set it as follows:
(using MTN Nigeria as case study)
Connection name : bobo wap
Data Bearer: Packet data
Access point name: blackberry.net
Username & Password : web
Authentication: Normal
Homepage: www.facebook.com
After filling those, then click option >> Advance settings
Network type : IPv4
Phone IP address : automatic
DNS adress: (primary: 8.8.8.8, then secondary: 8.8.8.8)
Then save!
Thats all. Then you can connect all your mobile application to use this new configuration you have just made. Its as simple as that.
Settings had been tested on
*Opera mini and Opera
*Ucweb
*2go messenger
*Netquin antivirus
*In-built Browser
And many other mobile applications that requires the internet.
