To Activate GPRS , you have to submit an application to your local telephone exchange .

but i called bsnl customer care centre and they told me to send a sms "PORTAL" to 3733 and its free to activate BSNL'S GPRS i.e. i would n't have to pay any price to activate my GPRS. I also wanted to know if I can browse any side after activation of my GPRS (BSNL SERVICE)

hi,
outside kolkata means rest of west bengal.in that case,u ve 2 send GPRS to 3733 to activate,rs 50 wud b deducted.no monthly charge,only 10 paisa/kb download.u can access all sites.
but,in kolkata only portal service is thr.only one site is accesible,no mms,no activation charge,but the download charge is same.the application form is required in case of postpaid(i guess).bsnl is very lazy 2 send the feedback,so u must keep patiance.
(whether its settings or whether its activation acknowledgement,contact with the customer n tell them 2 give the settings manually).i did the APN given by them wz wrong.but u must try n give us here the feedback.
u can try the url
