The correct APN settings for TIM Italy LTE (4G) in 2025 are as follows:
- APN: ibox.tim.it
- Username: (leave blank)
- Password: (leave blank)
- Authentication Type: PAP or CHAP
- APN Type: default,supl (for general data); default,supl,hipri (for gaming and prioritized traffic)
- APN Protocol: IPv4 or IPv4/IPv6 (try IPv4 for best compatibility)
- Bearer: LTE
- MMSC for MMS: http://mms.tim.it/servlets/mms
- MMS Proxy: 213.230.130.89
- MMS Port: 80
For Android phones:
- Go to Settings → Mobile Network → Access Point Names → Add Access Point, and fill in the fields above [1] [2] [4] [8].
For iPhone/iOS devices:
- Go to Settings → Cellular → Cellular Data Network, and set:
- Cellular Data APN: ibox.tim.it
- MMS APN: unico.tim.it (optional, for MMS)
- MMSC: http://mms.tim.it/servlets/mms
- MMS Proxy: 213.230.130.89:80 [4] [8].
Alternative APNs (rarely required):
- wap.tim.it – Sometimes used on older devices or for fallback if the main APN is not working; also used for specific network scenarios or to bypass tethering restrictions [2].
- tel.tim.it – Used on iPhones in isolated cases when LTE data does not work [2].
If you experience connection, VoLTE, or hotspot issues, try toggling Airplane Mode, re-creating the APN entry, or switching between ibox.tim.it and wap.tim.it APNs as some network areas apply dynamic restrictions [2].
Always leave username, password, proxy, and port fields blank unless explicitly required above. Only enter values in fields specified above—otherwise, keep as default.
These settings are the standard and most stable for TIM LTE service as of 2025, compatible across most devices [2] [4] [8].
