MTN Network Issues (not Accessing Google Website & Apps) by santaclaws(op): 3:25am On Aug 19, 2024
I've observed for a few days now that MTN doesn't open Google and their apps like YouTube from time to time. Sometimes it opens, sometimes it doesn't.

I experienced the same thing tonight on MTN and when I switched my connection to Airtel, it was connecting seamlessly...

Has anyone else experienced this? 🤔

Yes ,it happens with certain phones and I can't explain why. You'll notice this anomaly when the mtn SIM is right inside your phone and that's how you get data, but once you put same SIM in a router, you stop experiencing it.

However , try to update Google carrier services in playstore , that may help

Wow... I knew it had to be a network issue. My device is fully updated as I used it on WiFi and recently updated all apps, I reckon it's strictly an MTN issue...

just go to your phone network settings, create a new apn(don't edit the former one), create a new one. Then just name it mtnvpn, and also put the APN as mtnvpn only
