Manually change APN of dial up connection

An Access Point Name (APN) is the name of a gateway between a GPRS (or 3G, etc) mobile network and another computer network, frequently the public Internet.In order to connect through internet,You must have to specify unique APN address depending upon network carriers.Their may be some situations where you want to change APN but no dashboard or PC suit available at that moment. Here I am going to change APN of dial up connection without using daashboars or any kind of PC s

Manually change APN of dial up connection

Steps you have to perform

1. On windows 7, Open start menu, simply type 'device manager' and select first from results.
On windows 8, Open star open start menu, simply type 'device manager' and select from settings section.
On windows xp, Open start menu,click on Run,and then type 'device manager' & hit enter.

2. Select & double click on your specific modem from drop down list of 'Modems' as show below image.In my case it's "Nokia C6-01 USB Modem".

3. New window will open,Click on "Advance" tab.Here you can see command+CGDCONT=,,"XXXXXXX" in Extra initial Command text field.

Here XXXXXXX is your old APN. You have to replace it with new one. Means if your old apn is like +CGDCONT=,,"airtelgprs.com" then to replace new APN you have to modify above command as +CGDCONT=,,"tata.docomo.internet" (only modify which is inside of Double Quotes).

4. Click on ok. That's it.
