How to Configure Mtn Ghana internet settings access on your device

This is the first method and it is the easiest option available. Please note this method might not work on all phones.

1. Just dial *686# and send
2. Wait for the confirmation message from Mtn on the receipt of your request.
3. If you phone can’t be configured through this method, you would receive a notification message.
4. If on the other hand, you phone can be configured using this method, mtn will send you’re the configuration settings. All you need to do is to open the message and click install. Follow the prompts to successfully get your phone internet connection enabled.

The second method is for other phones or devices that can’t be configured using the first method. This method is a bit difficult but you can do it. Let’s proceed on to the tutorials

1. Search for your device internet settings. You will mostly find it at Menu -> Settings -> Internet Settings or Connectivity or Phone Settings
2. The next important thing you must look for is Access Point Name (APN). The APN for Mtn is internet.
3. Go on and fill in the homepage field, and leave the rest blank. If it asks you for authentication settings, select none. Don’t fill in the proxy or ip settings, but if you are not able to connect to the internet, you can fill it in later. Mtn proxy or ip setting is 175.17.3.5 Port 80 or 8080.
4. Save your settings and configure your browser or apps to connect to the internet through the new internet profile you’ve created.

If you are finding difficulties in manually configuring your mtn Ghana internet settings, just dash your way to any MTN service provider and they will assist you to do it.
