[Q] GPRS Settings for EtiSalat - Afghanistan

Help Needed!
I am currently living in Mazar-E-Sharif (Northern Afghanistan).
I am a current mobile subscriber to EtiSalat. I have activated the GPRS plan and applied the required credit (1000 af) to actually run the service.
I have contacted customer service (888) and the second I mention that I have a HTC G1, they immediately say that they cannot provide support.
Anyways, I told them to activate my GPRS regardless.
Well, 24-hours later, it worked! Like a charm.
About 4-days went by and no problems. Well, as of yesterday, my phone has decided to not even recognize and EDGE network.
So, is there anyone out there that could possibly help me by providing the APN for EtiSalat - Afghanistan?
This is what I got so far:
APN: etisalat.af.wap
Proxy: 10.0.0.172
Port: 80
Thanks in advance.

Need GPRS Settings For ETISALAT Afghanistan
ETISALAT told me to set the APN to etisalat.af.wap
but that so far hasnt worked, does anyone have the full settings? I have a Google Nexus S.
thanks
Dave

Anyone have any luck with this? I'm bought a sim card and am trying to get it to work with my modem, but cannot get the internet portion to work.

Use these settings...
I am in MeS as well.
I unlocked my T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant and these settings worked...but I just got a Galaxy S II from Amazon the other day and of course these settings work for this as well, since it is already unlocked.
Check out this thread on here...these settings work...

Etisalat introduced HSPA+ a few months ago. Truly awesome for this place.

How can it be awesome? The APN settings are keep secret for some reason. I paid for SIM, and data plan. The APN settings they gave me dont work, and their customer service (888) is nothing but a bunch of push 2, push 4 recordings.

Name: web
APN: Etisalat.af.web is all you need.

Thank you for the reply Szadzik. Still isnt working for me. I have tried the following:
I get the Edge symbol with these settings
APN: etisalat.s.wap
proxy: 10.0.0.172
port: 80
MMS Proxy: 10.0.0.172
Port: 80
MCC: 412
MNC: 50
I dont get anything with:
APN: etisalat.af.web
rest default
Im starting to wonder if my Unlocked Samsung Vibrant can handle the freqs Etisalat uses for Data. I am sending text, and making voice calls no problem.

Etisalat-Afghanistan GPRS/APN
I'm at KAIA using an Etisalat SIM that I purchased Jun 2011. Data worked fine the whole summer using the little (overpriced) Samsung BT3410 I had to buy because my old WM5 finally gave up the ghost. Was back home ~1 yr then came back here last month (with the Samsung for local and HTC7 for other stuff). Seems Etisalat changes the settings on a whim and I had a heck of a time trying to find the right info.
So, as of today (2012-11-04), Szadzik's two line response is correct.
-- Set the "Name" to whatever you want (I usu put the APN name).
-- Set the APN ("Access name" on some devices) to "etisalat.af.web".
-- Clear out all the other settings (e.g., Proxy, DNS, UserName, PWD) and save the profile.
Once I did that (and obligatory reboot), all was good, relatively speaking (the phone itself blows so no great loss if it gets eaten by an MRAP).
@lostwhat83 (and anyone else that pulls the settings directly from the AFG Etisalat site), the information posted on the site is wrong!
--==--==--==
On a similar topic, anyone know how good the Etisalat signal/speed is at RC-SW? Heading there shortly...
thx,

MMS not working correctly

I have the following problem on my almost new Desire S.
I browsed the forum, but did not find an answer
i have the correct configuration for both MMS and 3G data.
Test case A)
If I configure only 3g APN, internet is OK, but no MMS (of course)
Test case B)
If I configure only MMS APN, internet does not work (of course) but MMS are perfect.
Test case C)
This is the very strange case...
if I configure both APN for 3g and MMS... internet is OK, but MMS do not work at all...
Sending MMS gives me "generic network error" message
When I receive an MMS, it contains only the text and it display a message saying "can not download"
Any suggestions?

Sorry, I can't offer any sensible advice, as all I can think to suggest would be to do a full reset and then re-setup from sratch, which is probably over the top.
I've never had to manually play with APN's myself. Can you get the VODAFONE website to send you the APN's you need?

I already reset the phone to factory... almost 3 times.
Since 3g APN and MMS APN work fine separately, they are correct.
Yes I get autoconfiguration sms from vodafone, but no chance to have mms and 3g working together

Sounds like a visit to the Vodafone shop or a call to their technical support phone line might have to be your next step.

Try the app: apn global, could be due to apn issues.

APN Settings with working MMS (Skyrocket)

Ok, for those of us that have problems connecting to non-mobile websites, this solution worked for me. I've tried so many combinations- all resulted in internet working, but no MMS. I need MMS!!!
I was also up all night with AT&T regarding this issue (still pending). So after a couple hours, multiple tries, I hung up, they said they'll call me back after they find a solution. Whatever! It was 3:30am, I was trying different combinations until I passed out. I woke up and it was working!!! Powered off & on a few times. Still working. Applied the same settings on the wife's Skyrocket and now it's all working.
Name: attwap (name it whatever you want)
APN: wap.cingular
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Menu> Save. BackButton. Select the APN you created (green dot). BackButton. Done.
Noobs - To get to APN settings: Menu> Settings> Wireless and network> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names. Menu> New APN.

I dont know if "wap.cingular" is faster than "phone" (other APN), or vice versa. I tried speedtest on both, same ballpark in my area. The point is that the internet and MMS is working. I will "settle" for this until AT&T fixes this problem. LTE not yet available in my area. They said the PTA network is brand new and they're still working out the kinks.
Hope this works for you, too.

Works great man, I spent a lot of time on this last night couldn't get both internet and mms to work.

Ditto, I ended up going back to pta because I couldn't get MMS to work on anything else.

I'm glad it worked for you guys too. I was a bit annoyed switching back and forth whenever I had to send an MMS. The trouble was my wife couldnt- didnt know how. Now life is good... for now...

Well LTE is suppose to roll out to NY in the near future so hopefully we only have to use this work around for a bit more.

APN Differences?
Thanks Mike-
Works great! Data is constant now throughout all the sites I visit, no data loss. Also MMS works! And through speedtest app my DL is very close to the other APNS here in my non-LTE market in Harrisburg, PA.
Can somebody explain or point me in the direction of the differences between the APNS: pta, phone, and wap cingular?

looks as though you can't even use the phone apn along with the those mms setting in the same profile anyway.

Worked for me also.

Seems to work for me too. I don't know much but, all this cingular stuff wouldn't suggest we are using a different network would it? And we get a bill for roaming or something lol

Cingular is AT&T.

Oh that's right lol I forgot

Got up this morning and no data. Had to restart the phone. apn still set with new settings.

After restart, did the data come back on? No problems here. Both phones working fine.

Yeah the data came back on but it just stopped working during the night for some reason

Dont think it's an APN issue. "wap.cingular" is widely used. Maybe the phone just needed a restart. I treat my phone like my computer, leave it on all day, but reboot it every once in a while... and of course, back that thing up. (I dont mean the song)

is this supposed to fix the network issue well when loading non-mlbile sites? i tested my rocket with a friend that has the htc vivid and i was completely humiliated because his thing is blazing fast.

I changed my settings and still don't have mms plleeeeasse help

No, not fix. Its just a work around to get your internet working with MMS still active. Not supposed to make things faster, better or orgasmic... just working.

Did you do everything in the instructions? Including selecting the APN (green dot)?

[Q] APN and Data Help

Hello, Im hoping someone could help me.
I live in a rual area in Arizona. We only have one carrier and its Cellular One. From my understanding its totaly
different than the Cellular One on the East Coast.
All the phones they sell are unbranded. Wether its a cheal flip Nokia or the GS3, their unbranded and most are the
International versions.
I like to use unlocked phone's from either tmobile or att. However I always have a problem with data.
Cell One offers 2 different Internet packages, here are the apn's for their data.
Basic Internet-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Smart Phone Internet-
apn= isp.cellularoneaz.net
no proxy or port.
MMS-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
mmsc= mmsc.c1neaz.csky.us:6672
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Here is where my problem is. Lets say I enter the basic Internet setting and the MMS settings in the phone. My internet
will work and so will pic msg's. However I cant download anything or i cant login to Facebook. Every site I try works except
Facebook.
Now if I change the apn's to Smart Phone Internet then all data works downloads, facebook etc. But picture msg will not work.
It only happens with unlocked att or tmobile phones. If I use one of their phones its not a problem.
Sorry the post is long... hopefully someone can help me figure it out.

AW: [Q] APN and Data Help
Asked the Hotline to send you a message with the right apn settings? They send a text message that sets all the required inputs. Or add one apn with the mobile Internet details and another one with the mms settings.

Help with s6 edge data

Hello,
Am having problems with my sprint s6 edge after I updated it to marshmallow. The data has not shown up so I cant really use my data if am far from wifi and my network operator doesnt show up. Can anyone help me with files to get it working as I love my s6 edge.
Is it possible that if I root the Sprint s6 edge and install a custom roms, the data will be back working? If that will work, can I get the files to root it and the possible available roms I can run on it. Plz help. Tnx

You need to setup APN. Go to Setting -> Mobile networks - >Access Point Names then click Add
In here you can config your APN infomation, the APN information you can ask your telecom network service.
Example my APN (i'm using Viettel in Vietnam):
Name: Viettel
APN: v-internet
no user name and no password.
Remember, that is my APN information from my telecom network service.
It's not work for you, you must ask your telecom network service for that information.

The APN is not showing up
The Apn is not even showing up at all. Does that mean it is locked or what? Kindly help me out. Tnx

APN will not show automatically. You need to add new APN by yourself. Follow my guide to do that.
