what is the difference between setting apn on device and setting ;apn=blackberry.net in application.

When I am doing this setting in application, the connection fails every time, but when I am setting this on device advance settings TCP/IP APN, the application flawlessly works.

Condition: My APN is coupled with the site. NO OTHER SITE is going to open with this APN and My site will NEVER open with any OTHER APN.

This device setting also will not effect other application during the connection, as the device chooses appropriate connection settings.

The question hence should be how to set the APN within the Application.

Regards and Thanks in advance.

The reason we badly need to set APN in our application through program, is that in near future we need to use two different APN. Separately for a separate functionality.

Hello, this is very urgent, otherwise I have only one option left, and the workaround is to promptly persuade the user to set the APN manually on the settings, though it does not affect the functionality of other applications.

You also need ";deviceside=true" along with the APN data, if appended to the URL.

Otherwise, both should work equally well.

Don't forget that the APN data is carrier-specific - what works on one carrier will not always work on another.

The conditions for my bb app to run:

1. My Operator Op_A gives me APN Apn_a by default, but it also gives Apn_b that is not visible to client.
   
2. Apn_b is meant to run my application (embedded web site). It will not run on any other APN.
   
3. Any site: that is Google for example will not open using Apn_b.
   
4. Blackberry does the polling to connect the sites internally.
   
5. When I set the APN from my handset's tcp/ip advanced settings, my application runs.
   
6. When I disable the above setting, and use APN=Apn_b, the logger shows the this APN is being used, but the connection does not happen.
   

What I want to know is that why does the APN accepted in the device setting, and what I have to do from my application to get it connected?



Summary of settings:

public static final String urlSuff = ";WapGatewayIP=w.x.y.z;WapGatewayPort=x_1;tunnelAu thUsername=x_2;tunnelAuthPassword=x_3;wapGatewayAp n=blackberry.net;apn=Apn_b;interface=cellular;devi ceside=true";

I append this with the URL I have to browse.

Regards.
