Like the other network providers, Glo has configuration
settings which its subscribers can use in gaining access to the internet.
Basically, you’re supposed to receive automatic internet settings on your
internet-enabled phone. However in certain situations, your network provider
may fail to recognize your phone as an internet-enabled device.

If you don’t have suitable internet settings on your phone,
you may be unable to access the internet even after subscribing to a data
bundle. In order to browse the internet, you need either automatic or manual
configuration settings for your phone.
As implied earlier, you’re expected to receive automatic
internet settings from your network operator after inserting your SIM into an
internet-enabled phone. But due to a number of reasons, Glo (and other network
operators) might not send you the automatic internet settings. This could occur
if your network operator is yet to recognize your device for internet browsing.
Regardless of the reason for this, you can still request Glo to send automatic
internet settings to your internet-enabled device.
As a tutorial, this very article will guide you on what to
do in order to receive automatic internet settings from Glo. But if Glo fails
to send you automatic internet settings after following the steps outlined
below, you can click HERE to use Glo’s manual internet settings.
