Maybe it happened to you when you went abroad, or if you’ve changed operators, you can’t connect to the internet or can not send pictures. If that is the case, it is probably because of the APN configured on your Micromax iOne. So we therefore decided to draft this post to resolve this trouble. We will initially find out what a APN is. We will see in a second time how to configure an APN on your Micromax iOne. Finally, we will see in what situations you should modify the APN on the Micromax iOne.
What is an APN
The APN means Access Point Name. The APN consequently represents a set of connection data. This connection data allows your Micromax iOne to connect to the internet and receive MMS. An incorrectly configured APN can so prevent your Micromax iOne from receiving MMS or connecting to the internet. You should know that each operator has a different APN of their own.
How to configure an APN on your Micromax iOne
If you desire to set up an APN on your Micromax iOne, you must go to the Settings menu. When you are there, go to Network and Internet and Mobile Network . You will need to go to Advanced Settings and finally Access Point Names . When you are there, you have to click the three dots at the top right of the screen and choose New APN . You may then access a form that you must 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 net and copy it into the form. Almost always, the APN of each operator are quickly findable. You have to do it again two times the operation on your Micromax iOne. In truth, you need an APN for internet and an APN for MMS.
In which case should you set up an APN on your Micromax iOne?
Typically, you will not automatically need to configure an APN on your Micromax iOne as it’s usually done automatically. However, there are a few cases that need the configuration of an APN on your Micromax iOne. This is for example the case if you purchased your used Micromax iOne and that the person who sold it to you was with a different operator than yours. This could also be the case if you are traveling abroad and consequently change your SIM card.
