How can I set the APN settings? - APN settings

APN stands for "Access Point Name" and refers to the settings configured on your smartphone to connect to the cellular network. An APN defines the network address through which your smartphone sends and receives data. 


Each mobile operator has its own APN, which includes specific settings such as the access point name, protocol, authentication method, and other parameters.
