The Access Point Name (APN) defines your connection to the Internet.
For the Virgin Broadband service to connect, this needs to be: "VirginBroadband".

enable/disable the Pin code

By clicking on 'Enabled' or 'Disabled', you can enable or disable the PIN code on your SIM. For security reasons you will have to provide the PIN code before
you can disable the PIN code. If you enable the PIN code you'll have to enter a new PIN code. (Default PIN is 0000)
Warning: if you enter a PIN code and then enter this incorrectly  times, your service will be disabled. If this occurs you will need to contact us on Customer
Service 00 555 00 to remove the block.

Technology Preference

Setting to the UMTS preferred will result in the best possible speed of connection at all times.
However, local conditions can sometimes make connecting to the Internet difficult, particularly where high-speed network coverage is not available. In these
circumstances you can try forcing the data connection on to "EDGE/GPRS Preferred".
