Troubleshooting
Common issues and solutions when configuring Boost Mobile APN settings.
- No data connection on Boost Mobile
- Check your SIM card type. Boost Mobile T-Mobile SIMs (orange or white) use APN 'wireless.dish.com'. Boost AT&T SIMs (black) use APN 'ereseller'. Using the wrong APN for your SIM type will prevent data from working. Toggle Airplane Mode after entering the correct APN.
- MMS messages not working
- Verify the MMSC URL is 'http://wholesale.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc' for T-Mobile SIMs. For AT&T SIMs, use MMSC 'http://mmsc.mobile.att.net'. Ensure mobile data is enabled and restart your device after making any changes.
- Boost Mobile APN keeps resetting
- Some devices overwrite custom APNs after updates. Reset network settings on your phone, then re-enter the Boost Mobile APN values. If the problem continues, contact Boost Mobile support to push a carrier configuration update to your device.
