APN Settings

We have listed some of the common APN settings below for you to use with your  3G / 4G Router.

If none of these standard APN settings work for your SIM card then you will need to contact your SIM card provider for your APN settings as we will be unable to provide these.

Please note that if you are using a Fixed IP SIM Card then your Fixed IP SIM provider will provide you with their own APN settings and you should not use the common APN settings below.

Unlimited Data Fixed IP SIM Cards

We are often asked if there is such a thing as an unlimited data fixed IP SIM card because many users see the cheap unlimited data SIM cards from 3mobile for example, costing just £20-30 per month, but when comparing this to a Fixed IP SIM Card which can cost £30 per month for just 5GB of monthly traffic it can seem that the idea of an unlimited data SIM with a Public IP address would be a great solution to prevent overage costs (typically £15.00 per GB) when using a Fixed IP SIM.

APN Settings for eSIM Router

An eSIM router will not need to be configured with any APN settings as the router itself will be activated directly by the eSIM network provider.

APN Settings for 5G Routers

If you have a 5G Router and 5G SIM and need to know the APN settings then these will be provided by your 5G SIM network provider.
