    Create a Customized APN Profile

    Create a customized APN profile.
    An Access Point Name (APN) defines the network path for cellular data connectivity. APN information is required to connect to a cellular network. An APN could be generic or customized. Generic or default APN configuration is automatically detected when the device connects to a carrier network. The device connects to a carrier network using the
    Auto APN
     profile option.
    Auto APN supports all major carriers in the following countries:
    • USA
    • Canada
    • Japan
    • Australia
    • Taiwan
    • Philippines
    • Thailand
    • Cambodia
    • Vietnam
    • Hong Kong
    • Korea
    • Qatar
