Hi Skinny.

In Ozz at present. This time rather than buying a Optus SIM card I decided to use Slinny roaming. I logged into my account and set the $20 roaming package and was able to make and receive calls but no data. Changed from Optus to Telstra no different. The data APN was the default wap.telecom.co.nz which is put there when the SIM card is activated. However I found on your help page it should be wapaccess.co.nz. I entered this and it worked. Why didn't the original entries work?




Regards,

Old3eyes

wapaccess.co.nz is the correct Skinny data APN and has been for many years now. 

 

Putting a SIM card in a phone won't necessarily override default APN settings, so unless you updated them when you put the SIM in they're always been incorrect but still worked inside NZ where from memory any APN will work on Skinny.
