Vodafone UK APN / GPRS settings

If you're planning on using the internet via your mobile or data card you may need Vodafone's apn settings:

  • APN: internet (or pp.vodafone.co.uk if you're using prepay)
  • Username: web
  • Password: web
  • Session type: Continuous / permanent
  • Authentication: Normal
  • Security: Off

If you're creating a manual dial up entry in Windows, rather than using a connection manager such as Vodafone's Mobile Connect software, you'll need to tell your device to use the right apn. Here's how you enter the settings in Windows:

  • Go to control panel
  • Go to phone and modem options
  • Find your data device in the list of modems (second tab)
  • Click on properties, go to advanced
  • Enter the following in the text box: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"

Now when you connect, just enter web as the username and password and you're away!
