THE BEST APN Settings for Rogers
Upon receiving my OnePlus One (OPO) today, I encountered poor LTE/4G connectivity. Following a solution similar to TonyMTL’s advice, I made the following adjustments:
- Navigate to Settings > Mobile Networks.
- Choose ‘Access Point Names.’
- Edit ‘Rogers LTE’ by selecting it.
- Modify the following:
- MMX Proxy: mmsproxy.rogers.com
- APN Protocol/APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/IPv6 (original setting was IPv4 only)
- Save changes by tapping the three vertical dots at the top right corner and selecting ‘Save’ (which returns to the APN screen).
- On the APN screen, select the circle next to ‘Rogers LTE.’
- Exit settings and restart the phone.
By replicating the settings from my Nexus 5, which still had the SIM card installed, I managed to resolve the issue. If successful, your LTE connection should now be significantly improved. I’ll provide speed test screenshots to confirm the improvement.
When to Configure APN Settings
- New device: When using a new device on the Rogers network, it might not automatically configure the correct APN settings.
- Switching carriers: If you’re switching to Rogers from another carrier, you’ll likely need to update your APN settings to connect to their network.
- Mobile data/MMS issues: If you’re experiencing problems with mobile data or MMS, checking and potentially updating your APN settings could help resolve the issue.
Required Information
Before configuring the APN settings, it’s helpful to have the following information on hand:
- Device model: Knowing your specific device model can help you find accurate instructions for accessing the APN settings.
- Operating System (OS): Whether you have an Android or iOS device will determine the specific steps involved in configuring the APN settings.
- Additional information: In specific situations, such as needing a Public IP address, you might need to contact Rogers for additional information to configure your APN settings correctly.
Configuring APN Settings
Android
In my experience setting up Rogers APN settings on an Android device, here are the steps I take: TO Setup any Apn on android, here’s the detailed guide with screenshots.
- First, I find the “APN” or “Mobile Networks” settings on my device. This can vary depending on my phone and Android version, but I look for options like “Wireless & networks,” “Mobile data,” or “Network settings.”
- Next, I add a new APN profile or edit an existing one if I already have a Rogers profile configured. There is usually an option to “Add APN” or create a “New APN” that I use.
- Then, I fill in the key details as follows:
- APN: ltemobile.apn
- MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
- MMS Proxy: mmsproxy.rogers.com
- MMS Port: 80
- I leave other fields blank unless Rogers provides different instructions.
- Finally, I save the changes. This might involve tapping “Save” or selecting the newly created APN profile as the default on my device.
iOS
For iOS devices, in my experience the Rogers APN settings are usually configured automatically. However, if you do encounter issues, I recommend contacting Rogers for assistance.
Manual configuration of APN settings on iOS is possible but not something I advise unless Rogers specifically instructs you to do so. The carriers like Rogers optimize the settings for their network and iOS device compatibility.
If you are told to manually configure the APN by Rogers support, here are the steps I would follow:
First, I would go into the Settings app, then Cellular > Cellular Data Network. Next, I’d tap on the APN section.
Then, I would fill out the details provided by Rogers, which may include:
- APN
- Username
- Password
- MMSC
- MMS Proxy
- MMS Max Message Size
- MMS UAProf URL
After entering the APN info exactly as specified by Rogers, I would save the new configuration.
But in my case, I’ve found the Rogers APN settings are already pre-configured properly on new iOS devices. So unless you are having cellular data or MMS send/receive issues, I suggest leaving the default APN settings untouched on your iPhone or iPad.
Beyond Common Sense Facts About Rogers APN Settings
Fact | Explanation |
---|---|
Custom Proxy Settings for Speed Optimization | In my experience, setting a custom proxy (proxy.rogers.com ) in the APN configuration improves data speed in urban areas where the network is heavily congested. This tweak isn’t listed in Rogers’ documentation but works wonders. |
Legacy APN for VoLTE Issues | A friend of mine couldn’t get VoLTE working on their Rogers device. After trial and error, switching to the legacy APN (internet.com ) resolved the issue. Surprisingly, Rogers doesn’t openly provide this solution anymore. |
APN Type ‘ia’ Unlocks Hidden Features | I discovered that setting the APN type to default,ia rather than just default can enable carrier-specific features like MMS compression and enhanced VoIP support, particularly on older Android devices. |
DNS Override for Stable Connection | By manually overriding the DNS settings in the APN (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 ), I noticed a significant improvement in connectivity stability. This tip worked especially well when switching between LTE and 3G networks. |
Split APN Profiles for Multi-SIM Devices | If you’re using a multi-SIM device, creating two APN profiles (one for data and one for MMS) instead of a unified APN helped me maintain seamless connectivity on Rogers without disruptions when switching SIMs. |
Why These Facts Matter
These settings are the result of real-life testing and exploration. Rogers doesn’t openly document some of these configurations, which makes them highly valuable for users seeking a better internet experience.
