Troubleshooting
Common issues and solutions when configuring Telus APN settings.
- No mobile data after inserting Telus SIM
- Verify the APN is set to 'sp.telus.com' and the APN type includes 'default,supl,mms'. Toggle Airplane Mode on and off, then restart your device. Confirm your Telus plan includes active data service and the SIM is properly activated.
- MMS not working on Telus
- Ensure the MMSC is set to 'http://mms.telus.com' and the MMS Proxy is '74.49.0.18' on port 80. Mobile data must be enabled for MMS to function. Clear your messaging app cache and data, then restart and try sending again.
- Cannot edit APN fields on Telus device

Telus APN Settings FAQ
What is the correct Telus APN?
The correct APN for Telus in Canada is 'sp.telus.com'. This APN works for all Telus 5G, LTE, and 4G devices. It supports both mobile internet browsing and MMS messaging. Some older configurations may reference 'isp.telus.com' or 'sp.telus.com' with different proxy settings, but 'sp.telus.com' without a proxy is the current standard for modern Telus devices.
What are the Telus MCC and MNC codes?
Telus uses MCC 302 and MNC 220. The MCC 302 identifies Canada, and MNC 220 identifies the Telus Mobility network. These values are usually auto-detected when a Telus SIM card is inserted into a compatible device. On unlocked or imported phones, you may need to enter these codes manually in the APN configuration.
Do Koodo and Public Mobile use the same APN as Telus?
No, Koodo and Public Mobile use different APN settings despite operating on the Telus network. Koodo uses 'sp.koodo.com' as its APN, and Public Mobile uses 'sp.mb.com'. Each brand has its own MMSC URL and MMS proxy configuration. While all three share MCC 302 and MNC 220, the APN values must match the specific brand on your SIM card.
Why is Telus 5G not working on my phone?
First confirm your Telus plan includes 5G access and your device supports Telus 5G bands. Check that the APN is set to 'sp.telus.com' with APN Protocol set to 'IPv4/IPv6'. If you are using an older SIM card, visit a Telus store to get a new 5G-compatible SIM. Also verify you are in a Telus 5G coverage area.
How do I fix Telus data issues after switching from another carrier?
When switching to Telus from another carrier, old APN settings may remain on your device. Delete any existing APN profiles, then create a new one with 'sp.telus.com' as the APN. Set the MMSC to 'http://mms.telus.com' and MMS Proxy to '74.49.0.18' on port 80. Save the new profile, select it, and restart your device to apply the changes.
