Faiba APN Settings for iPhone and Android Devices

APN (Access Point Name) settings refer to the configuration that allows your Android device to connect to a cellular network such as 4G or 5G. These settings specify the type of connection, the server address and port number, and other technical details required for the connection to work properly. By default, most devices come with pre-configured APN settings, but you may need to change them if your carrier has updated their network configuration or if you’re experiencing connectivity issues.

Jamii Telecommunication Ltd introduced 4G only broadband service in Kenya with better than the average price per gigabyte. To be in a position to connect to the internet or use voice-over LTE (VoLTE), you will need Access Point Name (APN) settings. You can get Faiba 4G data bundles by dialing *111# and APN settings by manually inputting the settings below.
