How to enable EVDO DUN on ANY EVDO capable phone in 10 easy steps!

Step 1

or

Go to the following link. The very first post should be a link to QPST 2.7 build 215. You will have to register in order to download it.
http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/s...&highlight=QPST

Step 2
Download QPST 2.7 build 215 and install it.

Step 3
Connect your phone to your PC via usb cable or via bluetooth.

Step 4
Launch the QPST Configuration Tool


Add the port your phone is listening on. If your phone is capable, you can connect via bluetooth or simply use a USB cable, the choice is yours.


Be sure to specify the correct port.

If you are not sure what port your phone is connected to, try downloading BitPim and using the auto-detect feature to determine which port your phone is listening on.

You'll know that you've specified the correct port once the Configuration Tool has picked up your phone.


Step 5
Launch the Service Programming tool that is part of the QPST Suite.


Step 6
Connect to your phone with the Service Programmer. If you have completed the previous steps successfully, you will see your phone listed.


Step 7
Click the 'Phone' menu, then 'Read from Phone'. Wait for the Service Programmer to read the data from your phone. BEFORE making any changes, click 'Save to File' and BACKUP your qcn file. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!


Step 8
Once you have backed up your qcn file. Scroll to the 'M .IP' tab. Once there, select your entry from the list, and click 'Edit'.


Step 9
You must edit your 'Tethered NAI' so that your phone will use the same login information for both EVDO and CDMA-1X network access. If your mobile number is 1234567890 then your 'Tethered NAI' will read '1234567890@dun.vzw3g.com'. Change it so that it reads '1234567890@vzw3g.com'. Once complete, your 'NAI' and 'Tethered NAI' should be EXACTLY the same. Click 'OK'.


Step 10
Click 'Write to Phone' to write the modified qcn file to your phone.


Enjoy, your 'DUN'!

To use the EVDO DUN service, add an new dialup connect with the following credentials:

Phone Number: #777
Username: MobileNumber@vzw3g.com (ex: 1234567890@vzw3g.com)
Password: verizon

Be sure to select your phone as the default modem for this connection.

BEWARE that VERIZON MAY BE CHARGING YOU FOR DATA USAGE AND NOT AS VOICE MINUTES

DUN = Dial Up Networking.

This means, if you have a laptop, connected to your EVDO enabled phone, you can use it as your wireless modem so you can browse internet at EV-DO speed ~ several hundred Kbps.

Using your minutes, of course, but without having to sign up for a separate data service plan at additional fee.

I haven't tried this myself. Let me know if anybody has success with it.

That is just awesome. I Finially got it to work. I can now teather my Voyager. Will Work Great on my Laptop when im on the go.

[admin_mvu]

It's good to know that it even works on Voyager.

[buzzdar]

I can now do so much more on my voyager than i ever thought i ever could. I can now connect to my laptop for internet. I can stream Music and stream videos over the internet all to my VOYAGER Phone. Best Money i ever spent. I was do for an upgrade so i got an additional 100.00 off the price of the voyager making it 199.99 and in turn selling my Samsung U740 for 199.99 basically costing me next to nothing to upgrade my phone to a much better one.

I guess it's time to update your avatar now.

Awesome! I've been using standard #777 DUN with my U740 and now seem to have a little bit faster connection.

FYI, it shows up on your bill as minutes used, not data usage. The number shows as (777) 000-0000 on your bill.

I do have a problem though. I somehow wasn't able to connect while outside my home area (Seattle). I was in Minneapolis and tried connecting but got an 'Invalid Username' message. Then again in Louisville, same message. Connected fine when I got home to Seattle.
Anyone know why this might happen? I had to pay for airport wifi which I HATE doing. :|

I wonder if EVDO was available in those two cities. I would hope so but EVDO is not completely nationwide yet.

I am pretty sure they have EvDO. I saw full signal strength on both the 1X and EV lines. I thought maybe it just doesn't like to roam or something.

I will try it again next time I am out of town and see if I can't troubleshoot it more. I was just hoping someone had at least seen the same thing and could give me some insight.
