How to Browse with Glo BIS on your Nokia Phones

Recently, I shared how to use Globacom Blackberry internet subscription on computer , iPad/ iPhone and Android devices. Since then, I have received several mails and texts from Nokia users, asking me if the Glo BIS can also work on their Nokia phones. 


Well, as at the time of publishing this, the Glo BIS works perfectly on Nokia phones. If you can set up a personal configuration , using blackberry. net as the Access Point Name (APN), you will be able to browse with the Glo BIS on your Nokia. 

HOW TO BROWSE WITH GLO BLACKBERRY SUBSCRIPTION ON NOKIA PHONES 
=> Subscribe to Globacom BIS with your Glo SIM. Text coweek to 777 for N400/week plan and text comonth to 777 for N1400/ month plan.

=> On your Nokia phone, go to Settings ; Configuration Scroll down till you seePersonal Settings. Select it. 

=> After that, Click on Options, select Add New. Choose Access Point, You will see :Account name and Access Point Settings

=> Enter Glo BIS or any name as the Account name, Thereafter, Select Access Point settings, then Bearer settings. You will then see a list of settings you can change. Just edit them as listed below:
