Going to ITALY - Wind or TIM for data

Effendi · 19-12-2011, 16:41

TIM has 3 APNs:
- wap.tim.it = mobile surfing
- blackberry.net = blackberry
- ibox.tim.it = tethering, usb-bundles, internet on PC

So if you get a TIMxSMARTPHONE you have to use the wap.tim.it (mobile surfing), while if you get an offer for Tablet or PC surfing you have to set the ibox.tim.it. The same if you want to use the data bundle both for mobile surfing and tethering.
You must send the SMS to activate the option you choose. If you send no SMS you get the standard rates (not good for surfing).
