Often we find connecting a dongle to our Tablet PCs a big task set in front us. But it is very simple as you will know it shortly. Here are the easy steps to connect a dongle to an Android tablet.
Note : In few tablet on connecting the dongle. The tablet automatically set the APN. So it recommended to wait for 5-10 minutes after attaching the dongle to tablet. Also disable the sleep mode in tablet.
1.First connect the dongle to the tablet and wait for it to read the dongle automatically, if not follow step 2 onwards.
2. Now go to Settings in your tablet and select the More option which appears next.
3. Select Mobile Networks -> Acess Point Name[APN].
4. Then select New APN option.
5. All you have to do now is make the following changes in the bracketed entities [ Name, APN and Dial Number]:-
-> Set the network name. Eg:- For Tata photon just write Tata or TP or anything, as you like it.
-> Set the APN, search the net for your service provider’s APN. Then write it precisely.
-> All the dongles come with dial number. Check your dongle purchase paper or the manual or just search it Google. And then fill the same here as the Dial Number, save and you are done. eg. For Tata Docomo it is #999 and Reliance it is #777.
NOTE:
- After plugging the dongle, a default APN gets created in the APN setting’s page.Try to feed the settings by creating a new APN.
- Karbonn, Samsung Galaxy and Lenovo A1000 & A3000 tablet does not support dongle.
