All USA service providers APN setting for Android- list. APN setting is necessary when you want to run internet on your mobile phone using the services provided by your Cellular Network service provider (Carrier). In general, APN setting is being provided by Cellular Service provider but if you have any problem associated with the APN settings received then you can also set it manually with ease. Almost all APN settings have same fields but the value corresponding to those fields may differ based on some parameters.

Here I will discuss about what the APN setting fields actually mean and why they are required. It is not necessary that you cannot use them without knowing them. Of course, you can but in my views if you go though the definition and usage of them then it will be easier to use APN setting no matter which cellular mobile network you are using.

So let us discuss the terminologies of APN settings in detail in order to have a deeper and clear understanding.
