Browse Unlimitedly on MTN with just N70 via Simple Server (Updated)


MTNWith just 100 Naira, you can browse unlimitedly with your PC for 24 hours via MTN BIS which works with simple server. This has been working since last year and I don't see it stopping anytime soon. This is a useful tweak for heavy downloaders as the 1-day BIS plan @ #70 has an unlimited data cap. So you can download as much as you want.


TOOLS
  • A Modem (Either MTN or other Unlocked ones)
  •  A PC
  •  Mozilla Firefox (works with other browsers too, its just easy to set up with Mozilla)
  • MTN SIM with active BIS
Download Latest  Simple Server 2015 (Just wait for 5 seconds and skip the Ad)
