Inventions in telephony have brought about an era of mobile internet, whereby GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) acts as a lifeline for phones, enabling them to access the internet. The GPRS allowsmobile carrier networks to exchange IP packets, thereby allowing users to access the internet. Generally, mobile carriers such as Hutch, BSNL, Idea or Airtel provide GPRS settings at the time of installing the SIM card. The required settings can also be installed manually, depending on the service provider. These manual settings for GPRS require a couple of important details such as access point, proxy server address, proxy server port and authentication type. Users can also set a custom home page while installing the manual settings.
