  No worries! You're welcome and I'm glad it worked for you. To be fair though, @pelujhonny@pelujhonny deserves the credit. 

 

  Have a good weekend! Smiley

Hey amerkhankan!

 

Welcome to the Community! 

 

If I understand correctly, your unlocked Nokia Lumia 520 is a Rogers phone, right?

 

From the specification of that model, it appears that you'll only have access to 2G and 3G on your phone, not LTE. 

 

You can use these settings for your data and MMS APNs: 

 

Data

 

Name: Fido Internet/MMS
APN type: default
APN: fido-core-appl1.apn 
Username: <not set>
Password: <not set>
Authentication type: <not set>
Proxy: <not set>
Port: <not set>
 
MMS
 
Name:  fido mms
APN:  mms.fido.ca
MMS proxy:  205.151.011.013
APN type:  mms

 

Let us know how it goes! Smiley

Hello Amerkhankan,

 

  Welcome to the forums!

 

  Well, it seems like that phone lists some of the settings differently. Luckily, I found this post here. So you can try this:

 

Internet APN:

APN  : fido-core-appl1.apn 

User Name: 

Password:

Authentication type : 

Proxy server (URL) : 

Proxy port: 

IP type: IPv4v6

 

To Add MMS APN, I have to fill the following:

Add MMS APN:

APN: mms.fido.ca

User name: 

Password: 

Authentication type: 

WAP gateway (URL): http://205.151.11.13

WAP gateway port: 80

MMSC (URL): http://mms.fido.ca/

MMSC port: 80

IP type: IPv4v6

 

  Fingers crossed that it works for you!

 

Hope this helps! Smiley
