[Sean_D]

Hi there,

For APN settings please see our dedicated Help page at https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile/fix-problem/Managing-APN-settings.

This Help page will give you the link to download the correct APN settings for your device. It will also give you a step-by-step guide for the most modern devices.

Below is a list of EE APN settings for manual input if you need them.

@grsdevThank you for this! Just a quick note, on my Pixel 8, I had to leave the APN type blank (this was a text field) otherwise a radio button to select the new APN didn't appear after saving.
