Configurazione APN TIM

The recommended APN for TIM Italy 3G (as well as 4G and 5G) in 2025 is:

• APN: ibox.tim.it
• Username: (leave blank)
• Password: (leave blank)

To configure this on your device:

• For most Android phones: go to Settings > Mobile Network > Access Point Name > Add Access Point, and enter the above settings in the APN field. You can leave other fields at their default or blank values unless your specific use case requires otherwise ^{[2] [4] [7]}.
• The same setting works for iPhone, iPad, and most other devices. Just ensure the APN field says “ibox.tim.it” ^[2].

Some Android devices might also prompt for MCC and MNC (mobile country code/network code), which TIM Italy commonly uses as:

• MCC: 222
• MNC: 01

Keep in mind that in Italy, as of 2025, TIM (Telecom Italia Mobile) has largely shifted its focus to 4G and 5G. However, many SIM cards and phones still rely on the ibox.tim.it APN for data access across 3G/4G/5G where available ^{[2] [4] [7]}.

If you see fields like "Proxy," "Port," "Username," or "Password," these can generally be left blank. For best results, ensure your APN type is set to default (or internet), and the APN protocol is set to IPv4/IPv6 if prompted ^[3].

For MMS or hotspot settings, additional configuration may be required, but for regular data, the above APN is sufficient ^{[2] [7]}.

If you encounter persistent issues, check if TIM has recently sunset any 3G frequencies in your area. Italy is progressively retiring 3G in favor of newer networks, which could impact connectivity for older devices ^[8].

In summary:

• APN: ibox.tim.it
• Username/Password: blank
• APN type: default/internet
• Protocol: IPv4/IPv6 (if listed)
