Configuring Your Cellular Internet/APN Settings

Motorola moto g play on Android 7.1.1

If your device does not automatically set up your carrier's APN on the device after inserting the SIM card, you may need to manually enter your carrier's APN settings.

  1. Note: You can verify that your settings are working by turning off Wi-Fi and accessing the internet using your cellular network. If it does not work, restart your device. Often rebooting the device is necessary for new APN settings to start working.
