mtnceltel For you to be able to enjoy internet services on your mobile phone, it is quite essential for you to configure your mobile phone with the internet settings of the mobile network you  wish to be surfing globacom Nigeria with.
Before you can browse the etisalat Nigeria internet, your  phone, must at least be WAP ENABLED . If you check through the MENU of your phone and you see a WEB or WAP browser, then you should be able to surf the internet with it. 
You can configure your mobile phone by texting SMS command to a special number provided by the operator you want to use in connecting to the internet. If your phone can be configured automatically, within a few minutes of sending the text message, you will receive messages from the operator which will contain the internet settings. All you just have to do is to SAVE the settings. 
If your phone cannot be automatically configured, the operator will notify you through a text message. In this case,  you will have to configure your phone manually . If you cannot configure it manually, you can either call the customer care of your operator or you visit the nearby office of the operator and it will be done for you. 
The different ways by which you can activate and manually configure your mobile phone to surf the internet using MTN, NIGERIA, ZAIN, GLOBACOM and ETISALAT NIGERIA are highlighted below.
