    I need advise
    When I play one off the games on my phone when I want to play multilayer it always says SERVER DISCONNECTED AFTER A FEW SECONDS? SO OBVIOUSLY I NEED THE SERVER SETTINGS TO ENABLE ME TO DO THIS.. BUT WHEN I HAVE LOOKED IT UP ON THE APN SETTINGS YOU SAY THAT SERVER NOT NEEDED.. SO COULD YOU TELL ME WHAT TO PUT IN THAT PART OF THE APN SETTINGS AS I DO NEED THAT PART AND I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO PUT IN THERE? THIS WOULD BE HELPFUL I THINK… ITS A HUAWEI P20 ANDROID PHONE I AM USING.. PLEASE THANKS
