How to Set Sky Mobile APN on OnePlus

Navigate to Settings → Wi-Fi & network → SIM & network → Access point names. You will see a list of existing APN profiles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Sky Mobile APN name?
The Sky Mobile APN is skydata.sky.com. This is the exact value to enter in the APN field on your OnePlus. On some devices the field is case-sensitive — enter it exactly as shown in lowercase.
Do I need a username and password for Sky Mobile APN?
For Sky Mobile, the username is blank and password is blank. If your device shows Authentication Type, set it to PAP or CHAP. Leave blank if your device does not require it.
Why did my Sky Mobile APN settings disappear?
APN settings can be cleared by a factory reset, a network settings reset, or a carrier update that pushes default profiles. They can also be overwritten if another app modifies network settings. Re-enter Sky Mobile APN values manually after any reset.
