Cellular Phones/CECT P168 internet set up for suncom

Question
I recentley bought an unlocked p168 off of ebay and i love it.  Before purchasing it i fully understood that unlocked meant all of the programs would basically be wiped so i went online and found a website that gave directions on how to set up a user profile which could support the internet function.  I followed these directions but found once i tried to get online the message "GPRS not subscribed" pops up and nothing happens.  I currently dont have a specific internet plan with suncom but i figured that my internet would still work and it would just be expensive. I dont know if that matters but if it does please tell me. I really appreciate your help.

Answer
Hello John,

I would definately recommend for you to get the internet package most carriers charge you a penny a kb now most pages now a days are beween 50kb to several mega bytes now if you do the math that equals a very expensive phone bill. Also as of now since you do not have an internet package you will not be able to get online that is why you do receive that error, please get a internet package this will help you both with your phone bill and it will give you the ability to get online on your phone. I recommend for you to get the unlimited interent pacakge if you plan to use that feature frequently. I hope that I have been of help to you if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your question.
