In recent times, it has become kind of the norm to automatically have your network providers’ wap, gprs, mms and internet settings configuration delivered straight to your phone when you insert their SIM into your new phone.
This is known as OTA (Over-The-Air) configuration and as far as I know Airtel Nigeria, MTN Nigeria and Etisalat Nigeria still offer this automated service. Unfortunately sometimes, it fails to deliver and that is why Airtel Nigeria launched a platform where you can send the proper internet configuration settings to your phones in a snap.
If you’re dire need of Airtel Nigeria’s phone internet settings, here’s how to get them in 1 minute 
.
Go to Airtel’s DMC page and enter your phone number and click OK as shown below.
Select the Brand for your phone, wait a few seconds for the available models for that brand to load then select the appropriate model of your phone. In this tutorial, it is the Nokia 6080.
One you’ve selected your Phone’s brand and model, click in OK and then select all the options as shown below. Click on Start to begin sending out the configurations to your mobile phone,
Confirm your previous selections and then click on Start again.
One by one, you’d have to click OK repeatedly to send all three settings to your mobile phone. Save the settings as soon as they arrive on your phone and if you’re asked for a password, use 0 and if that doesn’t work use 0000.

NOTE: If you don’t have an Airtel Data Plan you’d be charged @ 15k per KB of data transferred. Also if you still can’t connect to the internet after saving and activating these settings, I suggest you text internet to 232 to activate full internet service.

Hello Friend! Your internet setup steps is so easy, the best so far, but unfortunately, I was unable to push the GPRS/MMS settings to my Nokia 5130c-2(XpressMusic), after many attempts. I was made to understand that the setting for my mobile is not available. If there’s any other thing I should do or any other way you can assist me, please let me know, because, I can’t wait to browse with my cool Airtel sim(08087537565). NICE JOB, Thanks. >07061836529.
