Changing Default APNs for 3G Operators?
Hey All, I'm in Ericsson Ltd, and we work closely with 3G Operators in areas of HSDPA modem testing. We test our modems with NetworkManager, and one of the observations we have is that the APNs for some operators (especially the one we test with - Hutchison 3G) are not current. Operator is quite concerned, because in the long run, IF the old APNs are made inactive, it'll affect Linux Modem users majorly. Any idea who I can get in touch with/what the process is for getting this issue sorted in the next release of NetworkManager? --Shriansh Shrivastava Ericsson Ltd. ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
Re: Changing Default APNs for 3G Operators?
This was changed in the last issue of the database because of a fault reported by a user useing a handset as a modem. The correction is in, and awaiting the next release. -- Stuart Ward M +44 7782325143 2008/12/26 Antti Kaijanmäki : > ke, 2008-12-24 kello 13:22 +, Shriansh Shrivastava kirjoitti: >> >> Hey All, >> I'm in Ericsson Ltd, and we work closely with 3G Operators in areas of >> HSDPA modem testing.

Here's the instructions how to > update the information: > http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/MobileBroadband/ServiceProviders this reminds me that the current database format is missing the MCC and MNC identifiers. In the non-roaming case they would actually allow to automatically configure a device (or at least propose one). http://www.nobbi.com/netw_mnc.htm Do you have any plans to add MCC and MNC information to the database?
