GPRS, WAP and MMS Settings for Mobitel

Dec 20th, 2007
by Kavinda.

Yesterday I found out that Mobitel (Sri Lanka) don’t have their GPRS/MMS settings online like Dialog GSM. Even Google couldn’t find them for me! After a little bit of searching online, I finally gave in and called Mobitel’s customer support. After listening to a few songs and a recording that kept reminding that the call was valuable to them and will be attended to soon, I was finally able to get the settings from them. So to save you the pain here they are:

GPRS Settings:
Access Point: ISP

WAP Settings
- Data bearer: Packet data
- Access point name: isp
- Authentication: Normal
- Homepage: http://wap.mobitel.lk
- Network type : IPv4
- Phone ip address : Atomatic
- Proxy serv. address : 192.168.050.163
- Proxy port number : 0

MMS Settings
- Connection name – MobitelMMS
- Data bearer – Packet data
- Access point name – wapmms
- Authentication – Normal
- Homepage – http://192.168.50.165
- Network type : IPv4
- Phone ip address : Atomatic
- Name  server : Atomatic
- Proxy serv. address : 192.168.050.163
- Proxy port number : 8080

Now that Mobitel is supporting 3.5G HSPA technology I’m sure they would add this information to their website soon.

    I used both ‘isp’ (port 0) and ‘java’ (port 8080) as apn. Both worked well. But yesterday i tried but could not connect to! Also, 2 of my friends said that they could not connect to any website via GPRS. :(

    Darshana, I’m not sure about the specific instructions on configuring your PDA. However, some of my friends have bought HTC TytnII PDA’s and the only thing that needed to be set for them to access the Internet was the Access Point Name (APN).

    I heard that Mobitel was doing some configuration changes/setup on their network, and due to that their 3.5G network was down for some time. This is what we were told by Mobitel support staff at the call center. So if your mobile device doesn’t connect to the Internet all of a sudden, it may be a good idea to call your provider and ask.
