DO ANYBODY KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO www.nigeriabuyonline.com?  It was a site hosted from Ibadan that sells Dollars on the net.  Kindly tell me what you know, I missed working with the group.

Which of the Networks are you on?  Likewise, what do you need to activate?
 
If you are on GLO, visit www.gloworld.com and following the instruction alternatively I have copied the necessary data for you.  Simply following the instructions.
How do I activate this service?
Step 1: requesting for the service Send a SMS in the following format 'Activate' to '927' An acknowledgement message will be sent back to you. Alternatively call Customer Care on 121 or walk into any Glo world outlet and request for the glo mobile internet service.
Step 2: setting up your handset You will be sent a SMS containing the configuration settings. Simply save the settings. This will enable you to use the glo mobile internet service. Please note: It may take up to 24 hours to have your line activated for the glo mobile internet service. Automatic configuration is handset dependent.
Step 3: You may wish to store some 'bookmarks'. These make it easy for you to access your favorite WAP sites.
How is glo mobile internet charged?
glo mobile internet is charged on the basis of volume of data that you download in terms of Kilobyte. A Kilobyte of Kb is 1024 computer characters such as letters, numbers and symbols. This simply means that as you open up a WAP page, you will be charged for the size of that page.
Examples of popular WAP sites are;
Portals
News
Business
  • Financial Times (FT Mobile) - http://wap.ft.com
  • Wall street journal - http://wap.wsj.com
Entertainment
  • Esato - http://wap.esato.com - download screen savers and other multimedia content.
  • SonyEriccson - http://wap.sonyericsson.com Club Nokia - http://mobile.clubnokia.com
Search Engines
However, if you are on V-mobile, get back to me or visit their site, i.e. www.vmobile-nigeria.com and follow the relevant instruction.
 
Wishing you the best.

Hi,

Vmobile has been trialing free GPRS for months now. The problem
is the GPRS symbol does not show on a phone. This deceives a lot
of people from registering and enjoying the service.

On my trip to Lagos last week, I cracked the case!

What you need to do is send an SMS with the word "wapgprs" to
184 EVEN WHEN NO GPRS IS VISIBLE ON YOUR PHONE.

The SMS is what activates your account for GPRS. You will
receive several SMS from vmobile (I have received around 19 so
far) all saying the same thing... "Welcome to Vmobile WAP
etc..."

After sometime, the GPRS symbol will appear on your phone.

Next Problem: GPRS settings.
----------------------------

Unlike the other networks, Vmobile does not send any OTA
(Over-the-air) GPRS settings so you will have to do it manually.

To do that, visit this site:
http://domainstandard.net/mobility/vmobiledatasettings.php

There is some modification U need to do depending on your
phone... which I will send later.

Good luck!

Vmobile WAP is still free and VERY FAST. It also has MMS but I
have not tried it yet.

It is available in Lagos and Abuja. I am not sure of the other
states.

stay blessed,

Adam
