Can't set my APN settings properly (Public Mobile, Canada)

General Bug reports

Hello Teracubers,

I already posted these info on another board, but I thought it would be pertinent in this thread also. Please, forgive the redundancy.

Note that this is a possible solution aimed more specifically at Teracube 2e users.

For those using Telus/Public Mobile network in Canada, this is the workaround I used to make my data work:
- bought a second SIM card (in my case Freedom Mobile);
- installed new SIM card in my brand new Teracube phone
- go to: Setting/Network and Internet/Mobile Network
- under TELUS tab, tap Advanced/Access Point Names (last item in the list)
- tap the “Plus” (+) icon in the right hand corner next to the magnifying glass
- go to the following address and enter the respective settings:

  • make sure all settings are replicated without any typos
  • restart phone
  • connect to your data

Et voilà. You should have access to Internet through your data!
I want to thank Sharad and Mark for their precious help.

Hope this helps!

Ongoing data issues with 2e and Telus

Follow up to Lee’s nice follow up comment for Future Readers,

I also had to setup a Teracube 2 with Public Mobile, but I didn’t need another SIM card to get the data working; the other steps that Lee described are perfectly accurate though.

Take care

Hi @franknarf8 - if you did not use a 2nd SIM, then how did you get data working?

#45

Well, I only popped the SIM in and it worked; I had access to the add APN page with the Teracube 2 (which I did not have access too with the old Teracube).

Just popping in to +1 on the steps @Lee provided. I was in a bit of a panic, but I got Public Mobile’s data working, didn’t even have to reboot the phone! Thanks!

And reading this thread warms my heart, amazing support @Sharad and the Teracube team! Loving the phone so far! Will spread the word around, lots of my friends are curious about it!
