Boost Mobile i415 for internet
My Boost Mobile Motorola i415 phone that I used for where/youat finally
decided to cooperate and tether to my laptop so I can have (slow)
internet access. The speeds aren’t anything exciting, but it’s better
than nothing. A few tricks that may or may not be required for anyone
trying to do the same:
Install the Motorola iDEN USB Modem drivers
Leave the username/password blank
Phone number is S=2#777
In the modem configuration turn off all hardware features.
Under the Networking tab of the connection settings, hit settings and
disable LCP extensions and enable software compression.
Make sure you can send an MMS message from the phone.
Make sure you have a good signal. 🙂

Just try searching for a “boost mobile i415 data cable” I snagged mine off of ebay along with the car charger for cheap.

I’ve got this phone too and was wondering, what is an MMS message? How do you activate it/send it? Also, do you just create a new connection and put the phone number you gave into it? How many Kbps do you get?
