It may have happened to you when you went abroad, or when you have changed operators, you can not connect to the net or can not send pictures. If so, It’s presumably because of the APN seted up on your Doogee T5. So we decided to draft this article to fix this issue. We will first observe what a APN is. We will see in a second time how to configure an APN on your Doogee T5. Finally, we will see in which situations you need to modify the APN on the Doogee T5.
What is an APN
The APN means Access Point Name. The APN therefore represents a set of connection data. This connection data allows your Doogee T5 to connect to the net and receive MMS. An improperly seted up APN may therefore prevent your Doogee T5 from receiving MMS or connecting to the internet. You should know that each operator has a different APN of their own.
How you can configure an APN on your Doogee T5
If you wish to set up an APN on your Doogee T5, you will need to navigate to the Settings menu. When you are there, go to Network and Internet and Mobile Network . You’ll have to go to Advanced Settings and finally Access Point Names . When you are there, you have to click on the three dots at the top right of the screen and select New APN . You will then access a form that you will need to fill in with the data of your operator. One example is, if you are at Vodafone , you must find the Vodafone APN data on the internet and copy it into the form. Almost always, the APN of each operator are quickly findable. You have to repeat 2 times the process on your Doogee T5. Certainly, you will need an APN for internet and an APN for MMS.
In which case should you set up an APN on your Doogee T5?
Generally, you don’t necessarily need to configure an APN on your Doogee T5 as normally, this is done automatically. Nevertheless, there are some circumstances that need the setup of an APN on your Doogee T5. This is for example the case if you purchased your used Doogee T5 and that the person who sold it to you was with a different operator than yours. This can also be the case if you’re traveling abroad and therefore change your SIM card.
