Current Set-up

MultiModem GPRS

Currently I am using a MultiTech MultiModem GPRS (approx $120) with a KM SIM crd and $20.00 prepaid card.  On my screen, you are looking at Frontline SMS.  Here's what I did to set it up:

  1. Ordered the MutiModem from Ebay
  2. Set up the SIM card with the prepaid card for unlimited texting for $2.50 in another phone FIRST by following the instructions at the back of the KM card (you can't do this from the MultiModem) and then place the SIM card in the MultiModem
  3. install the driver inside windows 7 (or Vista, or XP) by following the instructions from the MultiModem GPRS CD that comes with the package.  If you are running windows 7, you will need to access the device manager to do this directly. 
  4. Download Frontline from http://www.frontlinesms.com/flsms-wp/resources/download/ and install
  5. The Frontline SMS software should detect the Modem after 2-3 minutes. 
  6. Do a test by sending a text to a nearby cell phone, or ask your friend to reply if they receive a text.
