For
Nokia &
Sony Ericsson phone, find out your handset IMEI number, by pressing *#06# on the phone’s standby screen or by checking the same from phone’s body panel under the battery bay.
The IMEI number may be of 15 or 16 digits - identify the first 15digits and send an sms to 52586 with text as S < space >1st 15 digits of the IMEI number
After sending the above sms, send “VMC” as an sms to 52586 to get the OTA settings, and save the setting you receive.
If you do not have a Nokia or Sony Ericsson phone, you´ll need to set your phone manually with these details:
Vodafone Mobile Connect: Internet through Mobile Phone as Modem | Delhi
Vodafone has changed the process a little bit (atleast here in Mumbai) - now you dont need to figure out your IMEI number.
All you need is to send VL or VMC to 52586 and they will figure out your IMEI/Handset make and send you the GPRS settings.
Thanks tech_help. Got it fixed. How do I use my phone as a modem for browsing the internet using Vodafone VMC? I currently use MTNL Triband and set up a second connection as a dial-up connection, using the instructions within the link:
Vodafone Mobile Connect: Internet through Mobile Phone as Modem | Mumbai
My phone SE W902 is of course 3G and has a tethering option.
Few tips to remember
1) Just ensure you have VMC activated on your phone (Vodafone Live will not work for browsing from PC)
2)
Windows drivers for USB modem should be installed
3) DO not set any proxy
rest is already explained in the link ...if you get stuck at any particular step ...let us know ..we can guide you.
