Come configurare l'APN sul router?
For Vodafone routers in 2025, the APN (Access Point Name) settings you use will depend on your region and your Vodafone plan (Pay As You Go, Pay Monthly, or for VI/Vodafone Idea connections). The settings below are the most commonly recommended for Vodafone, with sources from 2024 and 2025:
For Vodafone UK (router or mobile broadband):
- APN (Pay As You Go): wap.vodafone.co.uk [3]
- APN (Pay Monthly): pp.vodafone.co.uk [3]
- Username: wap [3]
- Password: wap [3]
- MMSC: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms [3]
- MMS Proxy: 212.183.137.12 [3]
- MMS Port: 8799 [3]
- APN Type: default, mms, supl [3]
For Vodafone India (Vodafone Idea / VI):
- APN: www [4] [1]
- Username: (not set) [4]
- Password: (not set) [4]
- Proxy/Port: Not set [4]
- APN Type: default, supl [2]
- APN Protocol: IPv4 [2]
- Bearer: Unspecified or LTE [2]
- To get automatic internet settings by SMS, send "ALL" to 199 (for VI/Vodafone Idea) [2].
You can enter these values in your router’s APN settings page. Usually, only the APN field needs to be filled in (e.g., "www" or "pp.vodafone.co.uk"); username and password fields may be left blank unless otherwise specified.
How to change APN on a Vodafone router:
- Go to your router’s settings page (usually via browser).
- Enter the APN exactly as shown above.
- Leave username and password blank unless required.
- Save and reboot the router.
If you are using a Vodafone router in a different country, settings may vary; the most common APN for Vodafone worldwide is either "internet", "web", "www", or the country-specific option [8] [7], so always check your local Vodafone support if the above does not work.
If you have a Vodafone Idea/VI connection, the APN is typically "www" or "portalnmms" [1] [2] [4].
Caveat: Some settings, such as advanced MMS or Proxy/MMSC, are usually not required for normal internet use on routers; these are more relevant for mobile phones.
If your connection still does not work, try resetting the router, or check with Vodafone for updated APN values, as they may update periodically for 5G and new mobile technologies [2] [1].
