With the current Internet speeds, it will soon be possible for you to surf the net very cheaply and at your convinience. Now allow me to take you through some of the current packages which our local telecommunication companies are giving us and how to activate them.
So, starting with MTN.
First of all, to activate the internet you need to have a GPRS enabled phone...(this applies to all phones)
The APN for MTN is "yellopix.mtn.co.ug"
Now if you do not have settings u can send “Yellolive” to 188 and wait for a confirmation sms, save the settings and u'll be able to start surfing.
Next, dial *150# and follow instructions.
1 hour = 20MB(not 60 minutes in a day, but 1 hour e.g from 10a.m-11a.m) at 500/=
I day = 100MB at 5000/=
I week = 350MB at 15,000/=
I will look at the Orange options soon. The above is for your mobile, not the MODEM...more to come later.
thanks big-time sam. i love the idea of Sam's techshare. 500 @ hour, thats cool
ReplyDeleteHey Cleric, you're welcome. The 500 @ hour can only be renewed after the data hour is done i.e if you exhaust the 20mb before the hour elapses you will need to wait for the hour to game. Also, it is advisable to load 500/= airtime to avoid the scenario of MTN using up your remaining airtime once your data bundle is over...
