What is an APN
The APN means Access Point Name. The APN consequently represents a set of connection data. This connection data allows your Crosscall CORE X3 to connect to the internet and receive MMS. An improperly configured APN may therefore prevent your Crosscall CORE X3 from receiving MMS or connecting to the internet. You have to know that each operator has a different APN of their own.
How to set up an APN on your Crosscall CORE X3
If you’d like to configure an APN on your Crosscall CORE X3, you must navigate to the Settings menu. When you are there, go to Network and Internet and Mobile Network . You will need to navigate to Advanced Settings and then Access Point Names . When you are there, you should click on the three dots at the top right of the screen and select New APN . You will then access a form that you must fill in with the data of your operator.
