This setting option is not available for the iphone 5s. So I cannot configure the settings manually. Maybe that is whats wrong with my internet connection? Do you have instructions for the iphone 5s?
Mandy, Please read this POST https://apn-settings.com/ios-7-data-not-working-mms/
I just don’t have a tab called Cellular Data Network. There is one called Cellular Network Data but that is under Usage so doesn’t apply here. Any suggestions?

Hi. I use an iphone 5c, and I’m currently a T-mobile customer. I tried following the steps listed above; however, I couldnt find the Internet Tethering option. Under Cellular Data, I have LTE Setup and MMS. Is LTE same as internet tethering? Also, video streaming is very slow on my iphone, is there any way to speed it up?
Hi Amreen.. which apn settings have you setup on your phone?
