Tethering a Syma Mobile: how to configure the APNs? Solved

Question

Hello,  this message is not a question but a contribution. My father is a new Syma Mobile subscriber, and I spent over 3 hours trying various APN settings to make tethering and MMS functional. I intended to publish this message as a supplement to the already rich discussion on the site http://forum.lesmobiles.com/symacom/syma-mobile-partage-de-connexion-impossible-t115935-20.html but I couldn't register (didn't receive the email for address validation)... So here is the functional configuration I set up on a Chinese smartphone with stock Android Nougat 7.0.  There are indeed 2 APNs to register, the other fields are set to "undefined".  1) Name: Syma APN: symamobile.com MCC: 208 MNC: 01 Authentication type: PAP APN type: default,supl MVNO type: IMSI  2) Name: Orange MMS APN: orange.acte Username: orange Password: orange MMSC: http://mms.orange.fr MMS Proxy: 10.168.010.200 MMS Port: 8080 MCC: 208 MNC: 01 Authentication type: PAP APN type: mms APN protocol: IPV4 Roaming APN protocol: IPV4 MVNO type: IMSI  Cheers  Configuration: Windows / Firefox 84.0

Thank you for your comments, it’s nice to see that this contribution is useful and functional for you too! It’s still crazy that this operator can’t manage to provide this information on its website...

Super, thank you! Thanks to you, I was able to share the connection with my mother after 2 days of hassle! I don't understand why Syma doesn't provide this information on their site, it's really important...

Thank you, with a Chinese phone, I was in the same mess. The Syma site is really not up to par. Kudos for your helpful contribution.

paul · Answer

Hello, Try to create a APN for "default" then an identical one for "supl" and finally a third one for "mms"  In my humble opinion, it should work.

Hello  Thank you so much for your willingness to share your Syma Com experience with us. I'm also having connection difficulties, which means I often experience "random disconnections." Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  The same goes for sharing the connection. Sometimes it drops on my second device, showing "Wifi connected but NO Internet."  And then I have to wait; there’s absolutely no logic behind everything that happens. I called customer service, we tried some things, it worked, and then we hung up. Five minutes later, the same issue.  I’m waiting a little longer, and as soon as it disconnects again, I’ll try your method. I’m using a Samsung S7 Edge (SYMACOM), an S9, and a desktop PC.

Update: I tried with the above settings: sharing is working again but with a very, very slow speed; I'm not even getting 1 Mbit. Yet I am in an elevated position and in a place where all networks have at least 40 Mbit reception.  I'm really disappointed... and I'm really fed up.

Hello  I'm still having trouble with a Samsung A3  Do you have the same issue with the screen?  1 - no icon to select MMS Orange  2 - You can only select one APN at a time  Are you skipping the one from SYMA?  Thank you in advance  https://nsa40.casimages.com/img/2021/04/27/210427024930237001.png  [URL=https://www.casimages.com/i/210427024930237001.png.html][IMG]https://nsa40.casimages.com/img/2021/04/27/210427024930237001.png[/IMG][/URL]

No one, a SYMA subscriber, can send me a screenshot of their access points?  There's nothing confidential and no private data ;-)  Thanks in advance.
