BSNL GPRS Settings for Nokia 3230 (and other S60,2nd Edition Mobiles)

·

·

Update:
BSNL has changed Access points for many regions.It’s supposed that they are using a unified access point for all India regions.For example,the access point for northern region is no longer ‘gprsnorth.cellone.in’ bus it’s now “bsnlnet“.So kindly use the updated access points if you are unable to get GPRS by using the older access point.

Here manual settings for BSNL GPRS access  is presented for Nokia 3230.These settings will work on other mobiles with Series 60, 2nd edition Feature pack 1 platform which include Nokia 7610,6670,6260 and 6620.

You are advised to put manual settings only when you fail to get Internet access using automatic configuration.Before manual settings read  automatic configuration settings and FAQs.

If you have already messed up with settings ,then it’s also advised to reset your phone to factory defaults after taking backup.Now here are the settings for BSNL GPRS access.BSNL GPRS Settings

      By default ,SBI mobile banking app uses SMS as the communication channel,so all transaction are done by SMS .You can change the channel to GPRS in settings.

      just go to settings-connectivity/connections-packet data- packet data settings-active access point and select any of them.
      then go back to packet data.
      then go to edit active access point.
      and Edit alias for access point into “BSNL” and save it.
      And Then Go Back To Edit Active Access Point”
      And enter gprsnorth.cellone.in
      save it.
      it should work. and if not, change “gprsnorth.cellone.in” into “bsnlnet”
      regards!
