Several opportunities come up every time as a result of the rapid growth of the use of GSM in Nigeria. Here I will show you another opportunity you can leverage on for free.

With the improved technology in mobile communication, like the 3G, the use of mobile phones cannot only be limited to the conventional making and receiving of calls, mobile phones have evolved into mini computers and mobile offices. The internet can be accessed on mobile devices these days that means someone can actually browse the net 24/7 with a GSM phone any where in Nigeria.

With over 30 million mobile subscribers in Nigeria, the internet penetration can be improved in the country through the use of mobile internet. Most Nigerians have started using their phones to browse the internet while many do not know how to do it but desire to have it. There is definitely a demand for mobile internet which brings another business opportunity for smart entrepreneurs. The mobile internet will actually remove the high cost of internet equipment, installation, high subscription fee and other charges which are associated with getting connected to the internet here in Nigeria.

You can also browse the internet on your laptop or PC using the GSM internet SIM card at an affordable price, you can also make money helping people to configure their internet SIM card. This offers you the opportunity of browsing not only with your mobile phone but also on your computer or laptop. This is the aspect I want to show you how to do, having it in mind that GSM offers the fastest internet connection using the GPRS and even faster with a 3G technology.

To start offering this service to your clients, all you need is a special internet SIM card , a GSM installation software CD, and a GPRS modem. the special SIM card is what you need to subscribe from the service providers .The installation software is optional depending on the network, but for MTN you will need the software, the modem is connected to the computer. Although you can still connect to the computer with your handset but I recommend you use a modem. If you are using a handset, it has to be a GPRS compliant handset with the PC software installation CD.Using handset has its faults, like power depletion problem while you need a connection cable to get a good connection against using the infrared link. But with a modem, you just insert it into the computer USB port so the power comes from the PC.
