    Hi there,
    Is it possible to turn on a E5830 and connect it to a PC via WiFi ie without a physical connection and bring up the web admin page?




    Setting up another network


    1)Turn on your device (not connected to your computer), connect via Wi-Fi and bring up the web admin page (type http://192.18.1.1 in to your browser)


    2)Log in (default username and password = “admin”


    3)If you have managed to successfully unlock your sim card you should a green light next to “SIM” at the top right of the page.


    4)Click on “Advanced Settings” then “Dial-Up Settings” then “Profile Settings”


    5)In order to create a new profile just over-type the current “Profile Name”


    6)Enter the Username, password and APN from the list I have linked to below (flexispy)


    7)For example, Vodafone UK prepay uses “web” as the username and password with “pp.internet” as the APN


    8)I left the “Dial Up Number” as it was (*99#)


    9)Click “Save” - You should now see a screen confirming your changes


    10) Click “Advanced Settings” - > “Dial Up Settings” again now select “Connection Settings”


    11) The default profile is shown (with a D next to it). Change it to your new profile and click “Apply”


    12) If you switch between SIM cards you will need to do this last step each time before you can


    browse.
