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!
