How to Connect Micromax Q7 to Internet access using GPRS

Micromax Q7 ezpad comes with bundle of satisfaction to users as it is fully enabled with basic plus applications. Basically Q7 is Wi-fi GPRS enabled mobile which also has Qwerty keypad. Micromax Q7 can be connected to Internet through any mobile network connection. Here we will deal with GPRS-EDGE internet connectivity of Q7 with Tata Docomo and Airtel.

Connect Micromax Q7 with Airtel GPRS:

First of all you should have Airtel SIM card with balance more than Rs. 10 and any of the Internet plan activated check *567# for all Plan tariff.Q7 comes with pre installed Airtel Mobile Office GPRS setting, if not then Once you Switch On the mobile with the Airtel SIM inside, you will be asked for the setting to install. Please install all the settings as directed.

Step 1: Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Select SIM
Now here select the SIM slot where the airtel sim is, say SIM2, press Ok now.

Step 2: : Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Profile>>SIM 2>>

Here you will see various Internet settings of Various Telecom operators. Here you have to select “Mobile Office” and Activate it.

Step 3: : Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Data Account>>GPRS>>

Now surf the list and you will get Mobile office , if not then create new as:
Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Data Account>>GPRS>>Option>Add>
Account name: Mobile Office
APN:  airtelgprs.com
set  remaining field as it is. Save the settings.

Now you are done and are ready to use Internet through default browser or Opera Mini. If still the problem persist check whether you have activated data account or not as:
: Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Profile>>SIM 2>>Mobile Office>> Option>Edit>>Datat Account>> here ‘select’ Mobile office from list.

Connect Micromax Q7 with Tata Docomo GPRS:

You will notice that Airtel connects easily for the Internet unlike Tata Docomo. Really telling you guys Docomo can be pathetic some times for using GPRS! Once again Insert Docomo Sim and switch On the Mobile , you will be asked for the setting to install and do as directed. If still you didn’t get the setting go to your message box and type “INTERNET” and send it to 52270 (toll free).

Step 1: Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Select SIM
Now here select the SIM slot where the Tata Docomo sim is, say SIM1, press Ok now.

Step 2: : Goto -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Profile>>SIM 1>>
Again you will see long list of the settings. If you installed the received Docomo settings properly you will see here “Virtual Proxy”. Activate it through ‘option’ menu.

Step 3: -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Profile>>SIM 1>> Virtual Proxy >> Option>Edit>>Data Account>>TATA DOCOMO INTERNET.

Step 4: -Menu>>Connectivity>>Wap>>setting>>Profile>>SIM 1>> Virtual Proxy >> Edit>>Data Account>>Connection Type>>HTTP>>

Use proxy     : Yes
Proxy Address  : 010.124.026.094
Proxy Port      : 8799
user name     : leave blank
password      : leave blank

Now you are ready to use the GPRS via Opera mini or default browser. Please be patient while surfing the NET as it is very pathetic to get connection established. Just keep trying for 10-15 times to get connection , you also can restart the phone to trouble shoot connection problem.

One can also connect the Micromax Q7 ezpad and access Internet using Wi-Fi, So read How to access Internet connect Micromax Q7 to WiFi I will update you to proceed for the same trick soon.

    Hey Sumeet Do you have problem with Facebook only? Are you able to access Internet? For using Facebook and Nimbuzz you have to activate Vodafone Internet through their settings…..

I am using aircel network of Maharastra with Q7. My wap is configured properly.
But I couldn’t open Opera mini as there is no “network Selection” option available with Opera Mini or Facebook unlike Q5. Q5 shows network selection option in these in built applications. Please help to configure.

    Nitin - August 13, 2010

    Hi Kumar , so are you being able to access Internet through “Default Q7 Browser” ? which “network selection” you are exactly talking about?

    You can try step1- step4 mentioned above here in this posts and I am sure you will be through with your problem

      Nitin as I said, I am using aircel network. I am running my wap default browser with the GRSsetting, sent by aircel. Issue is I am not able to open Opera. Also there is no “network selection” option provided for Opera, Face book which is being used in Q5 & others. Please help how to configure setting for Opera so that it should run properly.

        In Q7 “network selection” option is not associated with the opera mini it . Now download opera mini again from Micromax official website here:

        http://www.micromaxinfo.com/downloads/others/Opera_Mini_4_2.zip

        Goto>>Application>>Java setting>>select SIm

        select the sim & profile where your Aircel GPRS is activated.

    Hi shuvang,

    Need to check if the wlan is enabled.

    if yes what setup do u use DHCP or static IP.

    DHCP than need to change the settings in Q7 as default Ip: 0.0.0.0.is configured.

    connectivity>>>> paired networking>>>> edit>>>>>> TCP/IP>>> use DHCP select yes
