Public bug reported: Asda Mobile APN settings take precedence over Vodafone UK in MBPI. This happens because both operators have the same (MCC, MNC) tuple and Asda appears first in serviceproviders.xml.
This is a problem for ofono, as it always takes the first found operator by default. This will be solved in the future as we will use the Android APN DB instead of MBPI, and we will also provide a way to edit the APN (see LP#1225174). However, for the moment we should move <name>Asda Mobile</name> <gsm> <network-id mcc="234" mnc="15"/> <apn value="asdamobiles.co.uk"> <plan type="prepaid"/> <usage type="internet"/> <username>web</username> <password>web</password> </apn> </gsm> to somewhere below <provider> <name>Vodafone</name> <gsm> <network-id mcc="234" mnc="15"/> ... </provider> in serviceproviders.xml, as there are obviously much more users with Vodafone UK than with Asda Mobile UK. ** Affects: mobile-broadband-provider-info (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mobile-broadband-provider-info in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1253586 Title: Asda Mobile settings override Vodafone UK APN settings Status in “mobile-broadband-provider-info” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Asda Mobile APN settings take precedence over Vodafone UK in MBPI.
