I have a non-Consumer Cellular phone. How do I set up messaging and web access?

Consumer Cellular’s Access Point Name (APN) will need to be installed in the phone in order for it to connect to cellular data.

APN SETTINGS FOR AT&T NETWORK

To create or edit an APN:

Please note, the location of the APN settings is dependent on the make and model of your phone. These are general directions that will apply to many phones, but the verbiage may vary. In general, APN settings are found by navigating to your Menu and these subsequent sections: Settings > Wireless and Networks > More > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names.

From Access Point Names, tap the “Menu” or “Options” button then “New APN”, “Create APN”, or a circle with + to add an APN.
