Set up APN for GPRS Service
Access Point Name (APN) is a protocol that typically allows a user's device to access the internet using the mobile phone
network. It is a network identifier used by a mobile device when connecting to a GSM carrier. The carrier will then examine
this identifier to determine what type of network connection should be created.
For uploading the data to a web server, a set of GPRS APN from your GSM network is required. Various GSM network

of APN are indefinite or showed in blank, just leave the parameters empty (no space). User can follow the Setup Format
