    How Reliance Jio Changed The Way I Work

    I love to write about tech and also build websites. Been writing for more than 5 years and self-learned web development couple of years back. Developing websites is a time-consuming task and with my full-time job as a Digital Media Executive doesn’t give me the time to work on independent projects. Well, you might say, you can always work after reaching home. But trust me, it’s not easy. You don’t feel like working after a 8 hour long office. All I want to do once I reach home is watch my favorite TV series and have a beer or two.

    Because of this work started to pile up. So I decided to visit a cafe near bt after work and work for 2-3 hours a day before going home. The cafe provided free Wi-Fi but it was slow as it was a public hotspot. They gave me an option for high-speed internet for a monthly subscription. Decided to sign up for it. Paid connection was giving me pretty decent speed but soon the manager approached me and told me that I can’t use their Wi-Fi as I was consuming a lot of bandwidth. What were they expecting from someone building websites? I don’t like developing websites on local instance I rather host it somewhere and work on that.

    I was about to buy a higher package from them. But Reliance announced Jio and they were proving unlimited data. Now why should I pay for decent internet when I can get around 17Mbps?

    Got myself a Jio sim through my company. Had to get a new android device as I have an iPhone 5S which didn’t support Volte. It’s easy & affordable to get an android device with Volte support. A quick search on Google for best phone under 25000 in India did the job. Got a MI device and started using it as a hotspot. The speed is so amazing that I now work for around 3-4 hours after work. Testing websites is not a difficult task now. I completed around 8-9 websites in a month. I am really impressed with the speed and pricing.

    Steps To Configure Jio Internet on Rooted OnePlus (CyanogenMod13) - Viral Media Today

    OnePlus’ OxygenOS was so buggy on my OnePlus Three and I had to somehow get rid of it. So rooted my device and installed CyanogenMod 13. This was my first rooting experience and it went pretty well. But things weren’t that good after installing CyanogenMod. The first issue I faced was that CyanogenMod didn’t retrieve Jio internet settings, so I had to manually enter the data. Below you’ll find the data I used. Another issue is that CyanogenMod doesn’t support VoLTE yet which Jio uses. But you can still use Jio internet through LTE technology. Hopefully, Cyanogen will include VoLTE support when they release CyanogenMod 14. For the time being use the below setting to connect to Jio internet using your rooted or non-rooted OnePlus device using CyanogenMod.

    1. Go to Settings.
    2. Tap on SIM cards.
    3. Tap on Mobile Data
    4. Tap on Jio 4G(Sim name might be different so make sure you select your Jio SIM).
    5. Under Mobile Networks settings on the same page tap on the SIM1 or SIM2.
    6. Turn your mobile data by sliding down the notification panel from the top and tap on the network icon and slide the button to turn it ON.
    7. Assuming you are still in SIM cards settings page Tap on SIM1 or SIM2 under Mobile Networks.
    8. Turn on Data roaming.
    9. Tap on ok.
    10. Tap on access point names.
    11. Tap on plus icon.
    12. Tap on Name and enter Jio and tap on OK.
    13. Tap on APN and enter jionet and tap on OK.
    14. Tap on Server and enter www.google.com and tap on OK.
    15. Tap on authentication type and tap on none.
    16. Tap on APN type and enter default and tap on OK.
    17. Tap on APN protocol and tap on IPv4.
    18. Tap on APN roaming protocol and tap on IPv4.
    19. Tap on bearer and tap on unspecified.
    20. Tap on MVNO type and tap on none.
    21. Tap on the hamburger icon on top right and tap Save.
    22. Tap on Jio profile to make as default.

    Jio internet will start in 2 minutes. If it does not start, restart your device and in most cases, the internet should start.
