Those who are using Ncell ( telecom operator in Nepal) which is providing its telecommunication services to more than half of Nepal’s population is providing Wikipedia browsing and full-functionality twitter access at absolutely Zero cost. This means user can browse these sites even they have no balance at all.
At its own default APN settings given by Ncell, you can browse only Wikipedia.org via its tunneling. But for your notice the wiki Foundation has lots of open source platform that can boost your productivity.In this post I am tech you how to tweak the APN settings slightly to browse other sites under Wiki Foundation. So, by the end of this simple and easy to follow post, you will be able to access the following sites in Ncell absolutely free:
