You can use the Wap APN also for normal navigation with your computer, but with some limitations (no pop3/imap and other things).

All options are available only while in Italy using TIM network.
Outside of Italy the normal roaming rates apply.

HOW TO ACTIVATE THE OPTIONS?

Just send an SMS to the short number 40916 (free while in Italy, roaming rate when abroad) writing (text in orange):
- Internet Senza Limiti: PRO INTERNETSENZALIMITI

In case you want to deactivate the option just send another SMS to 40916 writing "OFF" instead of "ON" in the above mentioned activation strings.

All options will renovate automatically every month. When your credit goes down to 0€ you won't be able to use the option anymore until you refill. Consider also that TIM will go on debiting the options also with no credit, so it's important to deactivate the option if you are not using them for a while.

You can activate 1 option only every month.
