Guys and Girls,
I don't know whether this TRICK has been posted before (I didn't see anything using the SEARCH engine)
I dont know whether I am allowed to post this, but, WHAT THE HELL
So here it is:
You need a PC or a Laptop and the required connectivity tools ,ie.,
Serial/USB cable OR Infrared Device OR Bluetooth dongle
1) Activate Airtel Live! ( It's FREE so no probs)
2) Create TWO Airtel gprs data accounts (yep TWO) and select the
FIRST as the active profile.
3) Connect your mobile to the PC (or Laptop) and install the driver for
your mobile's modem.
4) Create a new dial-up connection using the NEW CONNECTION
WIZARD as follows
Connecting Device : Your mobile's modem
ISP Name : Airtel (or anything you like)
Phone Number : *99***2#
Username and Password : blank
5) Configure your browser and download manager to use the proxy
100.1.200.99 and port 8080.( My advice is to use Opera since you
can browse both wap and regular websites)
6) Connect to the dial-up account. You will be connected at 115.2
kbps (but remember, that is a bad joke).
7) Pick up your mobile and try to access any site. You will get "Access
Denied..."(except for Airtel Live!). IT DOES NOT MATTER.
Keep the mobile down.
8 ) On the PC ( or Laptop) open your browser, enter any address ,
press ENTER and.......WAIT
9) After a few seconds the page will start to load and you have the
WHOLE internet at your disposal.
10) Thank Spartan117
This method is working for me using my beloved F500i. I have downloaded more than 350 MB of stuff and I have not been charged
a single paisa.The download speeds are decent.
If you have any problems please feel free to contact me, I will be glad to help you
If you have problems with P2P applications contact me.

did u try the diagnostics of the modem? If not it's in Control Panel -> Phone and Modem Options -> Modems -> ((Your phone, i.e., 6610i)) -> Properties -> Diagnostics -> Query modem.

Dear msum,
I'm pretty sure, you have installed the modem to a wrong port. In XP, you can't install modem to COM1. Another mistake you have done is you haven't selected the Nokia Modem from the list while creating Dial-up connection.
In majority of Nokia Phones(as far as I know), only *99***1# works. If you try other numbers, you get errors like the error you shown in the screenshot.

Dude,
You are really lucky. But here in Karnataka, we still have to pay 600/- monthly and the service is not available for Prepaid.
