Glo 3GB BIS on Android have been a long serving servant for us before the advent of Airtel 3GB BlackBerry plan for N1000 came in place. A huge number of queries asking if it’s possible to use Glo BIS on PC via modem and not sharing via hotspot? I told them it not possible because IMEI changing is involved and there is no say you’d change your modem’s IMEI number. The case have been different and settled now because a solution to Glo BIS on PC have emerged… You can now comfortably use Glo BIS on PC via modem with you just little modifications to your modem’s network configuration settings.
Step 1: Subscribe To Glo CoMonth
This is surely the first way to go about it…
Get an active Glo SIM. Insert the Sim in a Blackberry OS7 device for those subscribing for the very first time, (If you’ve subscribed for this plan before, ignore and move on to step two) Recharge N1400 Navigate to SMS, Type and send COMONTH to 777 or Dial 77721# or Dial *777# & follow the prompt. After subscribing, wait for activation message. (This should take some time, when activated you should get a message to removed your battery) Immediately after activation, Dial 7770# or send STATUS to 777 to be sure of activation
Step 2: Setting Up Your Modem
After BB CoMonth activation, Insert the GLO SIM into your Modem (Could be any modem, so far it has been [email protected] to use multiple network) Slot the Modem into your PC (This should automatically open its connection manager)
The connection manager should load automatically, but if not.. Open the Modem’s connection manager and configure its APN (Access Point Name) as it is below.
APN: blackberry.net Dialup number: *99# Username: Blank Password: Blank
Save and activate the new network configuration and make sure you set connection to HSDPA only (HSDPA will ensure very fast connection).
Exit and go back to connection manager home and click CONNECT.
Next is to, launch browser and start surfing!
