lg dare setup

diggla · 10-07-2009, 08:32 PM

I am trying to setup with phone to dial out. I have the dial number set to #777, user name is xxxxxxxxxxxxxx@vzw3g.com, also tried xxxxxxxxxxxx@dun.vzw3g.com . password is vzw.

here are a couple of screen shots. Am I missing something?

Did you activate tethering on your plan? If not it will do exactly this.

diggla · 10-08-2009, 06:47 PM

Or just reset the dun username to the default username

but that would probably violate your contract

Just make sure you use the usb driver and setup as DUN. everything else is correct. This is the route I took and it works great.

I dont know for your carrier, but it is something generic. Like CINGULAR1, that sort of thing. Nothing that tied to your personal info like phone #. Google might help here.

No its exactly that - phonenumber@vzw3g.com, password: vzw, number: #777
Disable all hardware features of the virtual modem....and ACTUALLY PAY FOR DUN ACCESS.

how is the default something like that? That seems like what you would use if you paid for the service. But a cell phone is already a dialing device so it seems stupid to pay for it again. Which is why if you connected by the true default you should be able to dial out like normal, or tether the data connection through the wired connection.

I've yet to figure out how to get around verizon's tethering service without paying on my Dare. I'd love to know how, since as 2k1Toaster likes to point out, I already surf the web with the damn thing, screw the $60/month for tethering. I could do it on my verizon windows mobile phone I had from work, but I haven't made it work on my dare.

the dun settings is exactly that, i hacked the phone for the free internet but cant get this.

justchat_1 · 10-09-2009, 04:54 PM

Because they assume data usage for a tethered connection will be far higher then a regular device (which is true) so they charge an extra $15 for it (i think thats the price i last heard).

And yes a cell phone is a dialing device but your not actually dialing anywhere.....your logging in to use their internet connection for "high speeds".

Of course there are ways to do this for free but its pretty easy to destroy your phone doing it, get sued etc. Not to mention against forum rules here - so

I've done it on my Blackberry and I used to work high level support at the carrier as well. The most common error I see people make is not switching their default modem. They would have their phone all set up but it would still try and dial out of the internal modem in the computer, not get a dial tone and hang up. I'd get them to switch it over to their phone, redial and voila. It worked.
