[HTC Inspire 4G] Jasoninaz:
One APN to Rule your settings.

Hello XDA Members,

Give me thanks for this, I've done a lot of work on this and I'm happy to tell you about it too.

I've spent more time on this then I should but the issue is I was NEVER happy with the speeds I got from AT&T but I'm thinking these adjustments will work with any provider and the correct homework.

These are Operational Mobile Network Codes. I'm a big fan of not having more code then I need. I'm going to shoot for having only 1 APN. I'm currently running only MMC310 and MNC410

So here is what my APN looks like. I named it big hammer google because I'm using google DNS as the proxy. Now the mms has to go through vdispwap2.mycingular.net and I used to have the IP address but it was not as fast and looking deeper I found it resolved to a table of IP's and just not one.

I think the type is kinda odd of using a star because what does star mean or equal?
