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!

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
Let us know how it goes!

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!
Cheers
