Quick 2 Net and Nationaccess on VZW America's Choice

Apparently this was(is) correct. I've been trying to research this as well, but haven't gotten enough information on it yet. Apparently, your account needs to have something called EN MOU or something along those lines for you to be able to use it. That's as much as I know right now; any more info would also be appreciated from my side.

 

Could you please let me know exactly how you did this and how you set everything up???
Thanks,
Andy

 

Thanks for your help; I will certainly take a look at it!

 

I've been using Mobile Web with VZW for 28 days now and none of the airtime I use has been showing up!! I wish there was a way to check it out!

 

I'm sure it will show up on your bill...maybe not??? That would be awesome.
Hey, guys, I went to a VZW store today for a sec, cause I didn't have a lot of time at all, and all I saw was the Mobile office Kit; is that what you guys got?

 

Thanks Gonz, does MObile Office Kit=Quick 2 net?

 

Mobile Web= browsing the internet with the built in web browser on your phone (depending on which phone model you have some phones will connect at 14k aka "qnc...quick net connection" some will connect at 60-80k average with a peak of 144k this would be NationalACCESS) there are even newer phones that will connect at BroadbandACCESS speeds (Audiovox XV6600 "HTC Harrier" and another new LG).

As for connecting with a mobile office kit you don't need to have mobile web, but you would need to have the NationalAccess feature on your account.

Your connection speeds will depend on which numbers you dial and what you use for your password (the Verizon Mobile Office kit will automatically configure this for you.)

14k QNC Quick Net Connect (or quick 2 net) uses your airtime
60-80k with 144k peak (NationalACCESS) users are currently able to access this speed by using airtime with mobile office kits. Newer PDA's and Smartphones are requiring a data feature to be added, primarily because these new devices can create an "always on" connection to the internet, where your PDA will be connected to the internet at all times (although in a dormant state) to allow quicker email syncs and access to webbased content and features. without the data feature a phone could rack up thousands of dollars in overage.

The data plans for PDA's are "ala carte ".015 cents per k, or $24.99 for 5 MB or $44.99 for Unlimited Usage.

Since National Access is considered a premium service in the future the Minutes of Use option may go away, from what I hear there will be NO way to get a Minutes of Use plan for Broadband Access its pay for it or don't have it, which makes since considering the Billions of dollars VZW is investing to roll this out.

But for now, Happy Browsing.

 

I've heard that just about any data cable will work. I've got a generic vx6000 cable that can be set up as a modem. I haven't tried connecting yet, but here are the configuration settings I've seen for creating a dial-up connection.

dial: #777
id: your10digitnumber@vzw3g.com
pw: vzw
modem initialization string: AT$QCMDR=3

This webpage has more information.

Thanks, I guess I will get a Mobile Office Kit then and call Tech Support and hope they will activate the National Access feature on my account??

 

Thanks Gonz, so I guess I will head to a VZW Store to get a Mobile Office Kit.

 

I finally used my phone with Express Net. Off-peak hours, of course. Andy, I'm using a generic non-charging cable. Don't pay too much for the VZW branded cable at the store.

 

thanks for the heads up but doesn't the quick2net software(which I would need, correct?) come with a data cable???

 

Did you see this? I don't use any VZW software. I set up the dial-up connection manually. Do you use Windows? I could give you detailed instructions.

 

Yep, I do use Windows, I'd appreciate it if you have the time to give me detailed instructions
I can also give you my email if that would work out better for you...
Thanks a lot!!

 

These instructions will work for WinXP. There shouldn't be much difference for older versions.

Once your VX6000 is installed as a modem (LG CDMA USB Modem) and connected to your computer...

My Computer
Control Panel
Phone and Modem Options
On the Modems Tab, select you LG CDMA USB Modem, click Properties
On the Advanced Tab, enter AT$QCMDR=3 as the extra initialization commands
Hit OK twice to get back to Control Pannel

Network Connections
Create a new connection
Next
Connect to the Internet, Next
Set up my connection manually, Next
Connect using a dial-up modem, Next
ISP Name: VZW EN (or whatever you choose), Next
Phone number: #777, Next
Set for your user or all users, Next
User name: ##########@vzw3g.com (replace ### with your 10-digit phone number)
Password: vzw
Confirm password: vzw
Choose other options as needed, Next
Finish

Now you should be able to re-enter your username and passowrd and connect.

From my experience, I was able to get about twice the speed of dial-up.
Your battery should last about as long as making a call (I think).
The #777 number shows up on your bill as (777)000-000 just like data for WAP.

 

Thanks for you guys' help. I will get a USB cable soon and try it and let you know what I find...Again THANKS A LOT!
Andy

 

Well-I just got off the phone talking to tech support, here's what happened.
He said that just adding the EN MOU code to someone's account is not the right way to use this feature. He says this feature is also used for Mobile Web???
So basically he didn't add this feature to my account, but he said I could use Quick2Net without problems... what can/should I do???
Thanks,
Andy

 

Gonz, wgray, where are you guys?? I need your help, lol.
Andy

 

I didn't call tech support to get started. You should be able to connect without making any changes to your account.

 

But you had mobile web on your account, correct?
The tech said something like if you have mobile web on your account then that feature code would automatically be on your account...well I guess I'm gonna search ebay for a usb cable and just try it out the way you told me...
Thanks,
Andy
