Frequently Asked Questions

What is the your network APN name?

The your network APN name is shown in the settings table above. On most your network SIMs in the UK, the APN is pre-configured automatically when you insert your SIM.

Why is my your network mobile data not working after entering the APN?

After entering the your network APN settings, restart your phone to apply the changes. If data still does not work, check you have selected the correct APN and that your your network plan includes mobile data.

Do I need to enter APN settings manually on your network?

Most your network devices configure APN settings automatically when you insert your SIM. You only need to enter them manually if your internet or MMS stops working after a factory reset or SIM swap.

What is the your network MMS APN for picture messages?

The your network MMS APN settings are included in the table above. Make sure the MMSC, MMS Proxy and MMS Port values are entered exactly as shown.

Can I use the same APN settings for 4G and 5G on your network?

Yes, the your network APN settings work for both 4G and 5G connections. You do not need a separate APN for 5G — the network upgrades automatically where 5G coverage is available.
