If you do configure your phone or modem with internet settings of different networks, then the word "APN" should not be new to you. You will always need the Access Point Name of the network you want to use to surf the internet whenever you want to configure your phone, modem or even if you want to create prov files.
If for example, you want to use your phone to surf the internet using MTN data-ready SIM card and you fail to configure your phone with the APN of MTN, the phone might not connect to the internet at all.
The APN of the major internet providers in Nigeria are stated below:
APN of Etisalat : etisalat
APN of MTN : web.gprs.mtnngeria.net [Username = web, Password = web)
APN of Zain : internet.ng.zain.com
APN of Globacom : gloflat (for modem) [Username = flat, Password = flat)
APN of Globacom : glowap (for wap browsers)
I hope this short info helps....

ReplyDeleteIt is has been observed that some MTn modems doesnt support Glo SIM. One of the reasons I prefer Glo Modems now because you can use all SIMs with it..
