Banglalink 4G Internet Settings for Android — Complete APN Setup Guide

Banglalink 4G Internet Settings for Android — Complete APN Setup Guide

Banglalink 4G Internet Settings for Android — Complete APN Setup Guide

The correct Banglalink 4G internet settings for Android require a single APN value: blweb. That one field, entered correctly in your phone’s mobile network settings, is all that stands between your Banglalink SIM and a working 4G connection. This guide covers the automatic SMS method, step-by-step manual APN setup for Samsung, Xiaomi, and stock Android devices, MMS configuration, 5G APN settings, and every common fix for when the internet still does not work after setup.

Most Android phones receive Banglalink APN settings automatically when you insert the SIM and restart. The manual process becomes necessary after a factory reset, when switching to a new device, or when automatic settings fail to apply correctly. Either way, the configuration takes under five minutes once you know the exact values to enter.

Banglalink APN Settings for Android — Complete Values

The Banglalink APN for 4G and 5G internet on Android uses the following configuration. Enter these values exactly as shown — leave any field blank unless a value is listed below.

Name: Banglalink-WEB. APN: blweb. Proxy: leave blank. Port: leave blank. Username: leave blank. Password: leave blank. Server: leave blank. MMSC: leave blank. MMS Proxy: leave blank. MMS Port: leave blank. MCC: 470. MNC: 03. Authentication Type: None. APN Type: default,supl. APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6. APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4. Bearer: Unspecified.

The MCC value 470 identifies Bangladesh as the country code. The MNC value 03 identifies Banglalink specifically — do not confuse this with Grameenphone (01), Robi (03 on a different MCC combination), or Teletalk (04). If your phone auto-fills the MCC and MNC fields after you select the SIM, verify the values match before saving. The APN field blweb is the only value that critically affects whether 4G data works — every other field can remain blank for standard internet access.

How to Get Banglalink Internet Settings Automatically via SMS

The fastest way to configure Banglalink internet settings is to request them directly from Banglalink via SMS. The network sends a pre-configured settings message that installs the APN automatically without requiring manual entry.

To receive automatic settings, open your messaging app and send a new SMS. For a pay-as-you-go data connection, type p1 and send it to 3343. For a subscription-based data plan, type p2 and send it to 3343. Banglalink will send a configuration message within a few minutes. When the message arrives, open it and tap Install or Save — the exact label depends on your Android version and device manufacturer. After the settings install, restart your phone to activate the connection.

This method works for both prepaid and postpaid Banglalink SIMs. If the configuration message does not arrive within ten minutes, check that your SIM is active and has sufficient balance for SMS, then try sending the request again. If the automatic method fails entirely, proceed with the manual setup below.

How to Manually Set Up Banglalink 4G APN on Android

Manual APN setup follows the same core path on all Android devices but the exact menu names differ between Samsung One UI, Xiaomi HyperOS, and stock Android. The steps below cover all three.

Manual APN Setup on Samsung (One UI)

Open Settings on your Samsung device. Tap Connections, then tap Mobile Networks. Select your Banglalink SIM if you are using a dual-SIM phone. Tap Access Point Names. Tap the plus (+) icon in the top right corner to create a new APN. Enter the name as Banglalink-WEB and the APN as blweb. Set MCC to 470 and MNC to 03. Set Authentication Type to None and APN Type to default,supl. Tap the three-dot menu in the top right and select Save. Back on the APN list, tap the radio button next to Banglalink-WEB to activate it. Toggle mobile data off and back on, or restart your phone.

Manual APN Setup on Xiaomi and Redmi (HyperOS / MIUI)

Open Settings on your Xiaomi or Redmi device. Tap SIM cards and mobile networks. Select the slot where your Banglalink SIM is inserted. Tap Access Point Names. Tap the plus (+) icon or Add APN. Enter the name as Banglalink-WEB and the APN as blweb. Fill in MCC 470 and MNC 03. Set APN type to default,supl and Authentication type to None. Tap the save icon or the three-dot menu and select Save. Select the new Banglalink-WEB entry from the APN list to make it active. Disable and re-enable mobile data or restart the device.

Manual APN Setup on Stock Android (Google Pixel and Others)

Open Settings and tap Network and Internet. Tap SIMs or Mobile Network. If you have two SIMs, select the Banglalink SIM. Tap Access Point Names. Tap the plus (+) icon to add a new APN. Enter the name Banglalink-WEB and APN blweb. Set MCC to 470, MNC to 03, APN type to default,supl, and Authentication type to Not set. Tap the three-dot menu and save. Select the new entry to activate it, then toggle mobile data or restart.

Banglalink MMS Settings for Android

If you need to send and receive MMS messages in addition to internet data, you need a separate APN entry for MMS. The Banglalink MMS APN uses different values from the internet APN and must be saved as a second entry — do not overwrite the blweb internet APN.

Create a new APN entry with the following values. Name: Banglalink-MMS. APN: blmms. MMSC: http://mmsc.banglalink.net. MMS Proxy: 192.168.97.55. MMS Port: 8799. MCC: 470. MNC: 03. Authentication Type: None. APN Type: mms. Save this entry separately and keep the Banglalink-WEB entry active for internet. Android will automatically use the MMS APN when sending multimedia messages and the internet APN for all other data.

Does Banglalink Support VoLTE?

Banglalink supports VoLTE (Voice over LTE) on its 4G network in Bangladesh. VoLTE enables HD voice calls over the 4G data network rather than the older 2G or 3G voice channels, which improves call clarity and allows simultaneous voice calls and data usage without dropping to a lower network. To use VoLTE on Banglalink, your device must support VoLTE and have it enabled — go to Settings, then Mobile Networks, and look for a VoLTE or Enhanced 4G LTE Mode toggle. Most mid-range and flagship Android phones released after 2020 support VoLTE on Banglalink’s network bands.

Banglalink 5G APN Settings

Banglalink’s 5G network uses the same blweb APN as the 4G network — no separate APN configuration is required for 5G. If your device supports 5G and you are in a Banglalink 5G coverage area, the network will automatically use the 5G connection with the existing blweb APN. To ensure your phone connects to 5G when available, go to Settings, then Mobile Networks, then Network Mode, and select 5G/4G/3G/2G Auto or the highest available option on your device. Banglalink 5G coverage is currently concentrated in select urban areas — check Banglalink’s official coverage map to verify 5G availability in your location.

How to Set Banglalink as Default Data SIM on Dual-SIM Android

If you are using a dual-SIM phone and your Banglalink internet is not working despite correct APN settings, the issue is often that the other SIM is set as the default data SIM. Open Settings and tap SIM cards, SIM Manager, or Connections depending on your device. Look for a Default data SIM or Mobile data setting and select the slot where your Banglalink SIM is inserted. Save the change and toggle mobile data off and on. All internet traffic will now route through the Banglalink SIM.

On Samsung devices running One UI, go to Settings, then Connections, then SIM Manager, and tap Mobile data to select the correct SIM. On Xiaomi devices, go to Settings, then SIM cards and mobile networks, and tap the Mobile data option to switch the active data SIM.

Troubleshooting Banglalink Internet Not Working on Android

If you have entered the correct APN settings and Banglalink internet still does not work, work through the following checks in order before contacting support.

Check your data balance first. A depleted balance or expired package is the most common reason for no internet access even with correct settings. Dial *121*1# to check your remaining data balance. If the balance is zero, purchase a new internet package before troubleshooting further.

Confirm that mobile data is enabled. Open the quick settings panel by swiping down from the top of the screen and check that the mobile data toggle is on. Some Android versions require you to also enable data in Settings under Connections or Mobile Networks.

Verify the network mode is set correctly. Go to Settings, then Mobile Networks, then Network Mode, and select 4G/5G Auto or LTE/WCDMA/GSM. Selecting a mode that locks to 3G or 2G only will prevent 4G from connecting even with correct APN settings.

Delete duplicate or incorrect APN entries. If multiple APNs are saved, having the wrong one selected will break connectivity. Go to Access Point Names, delete any entries that are not Banglalink-WEB, and confirm only the correct blweb APN is active. On some devices, resetting to default APNs via the three-dot menu and then re-entering the blweb values manually produces a cleaner result than editing existing entries. Apps that help manage your app cache on Android can also clear corrupted network-related data stored by browser and connection apps that sometimes interfere with mobile data behaviour after an APN change.

Remove and reinsert the SIM card. Power off the device, remove the Banglalink SIM, reinsert it firmly, and power back on. This re-triggers the network registration process and often resolves persistent no-service situations that APN changes alone do not fix.

Check for network outages in your area. Banglalink occasionally performs maintenance that temporarily affects data services in specific zones. Call 121 from your Banglalink number or check the Banglalink Facebook page for service announcements before assuming the issue is device-side.

How to Test Your Banglalink 4G Internet Speed

Once your APN settings are configured and mobile data is working, testing your actual connection speed confirms whether you are getting the 4G performance your plan supports. Open a browser and go to Speedtest by Ookla or use the Speedtest app. Select a Banglalink or Dhaka-based server for the most accurate result. A healthy Banglalink 4G connection in an urban area should produce download speeds between 15 and 50 Mbps under normal network load. Speeds below 5 Mbps in a covered area suggest either signal interference, congestion on the local cell tower, or a device issue rather than an APN configuration problem.

For ongoing speed monitoring and comparison across different locations in Bangladesh, the internet speed test tools covered in the best internet speed tests provide more detailed diagnostics than a single Speedtest result. Checking your speed at different times of day also reveals peak congestion periods on your local Banglalink tower, which helps you plan data-heavy tasks like video calls or downloads for lower-traffic hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the APN for Banglalink 4G?

The APN for Banglalink 4G internet is blweb. This single value, entered in the APN field under Settings — Mobile Networks — Access Point Names, is all that is required for 4G data to work on Android. The MCC is 470 and the MNC is 03. All other fields in the APN form can be left blank for standard internet access.

How do I get Banglalink internet settings automatically?

Send an SMS with the text p1 (for pay-as-you-go) or p2 (for subscription plans) to 3343 from your Banglalink number. Banglalink will send a configuration message within a few minutes. Open the message, tap Install or Save, then restart your phone to activate the settings.

Does Banglalink support VoLTE on Android?

Yes, Banglalink supports VoLTE on compatible Android devices. Enable it by going to Settings, then Mobile Networks, and turning on the VoLTE or Enhanced 4G LTE Mode toggle. Your device must support VoLTE on the frequency bands Banglalink uses. Most Android phones released after 2020 are compatible.

What is the Banglalink 5G APN setting?

Banglalink 5G uses the same APN as 4G — blweb. No separate configuration is needed. Set your network mode to 5G/4G Auto in Mobile Network settings and your phone will automatically use 5G where coverage is available. Banglalink 5G is currently available in select urban areas only.

Why is my Banglalink internet not working after entering APN settings?

The most common reasons are zero data balance (check with *121*1#), mobile data toggle disabled, wrong SIM set as default data SIM on dual-SIM phones, network mode locked to 2G or 3G only, or a duplicate incorrect APN entry remaining active. Work through each check in order — most cases are resolved by one of the first three fixes without needing to contact support.

Can I use the same Banglalink APN settings on a Samsung and a Xiaomi phone?

Yes. The APN values are identical across all Android devices — blweb, MCC 470, MNC 03. The menu path to enter them differs slightly between Samsung One UI, Xiaomi HyperOS, and stock Android, but the values you enter are the same. Both devices will connect to the same Banglalink 4G network once the correct APN is saved and activated.

How do I check my Banglalink data balance?

Dial *121*1# from your Banglalink number to check your remaining data balance. You can also check balance and active packages through the Banglalink My BL app, which shows real-time usage, expiry dates, and available recharge options. Knowing your balance before troubleshooting internet issues eliminates the most common cause of no connectivity — an expired or depleted data package — in under thirty seconds. Managing your Android device efficiently, including knowing how to free up storage space, also helps apps like My BL run smoothly without cache-related slowdowns.

Conclusion

Configuring Banglalink 4G internet settings on Android comes down to one value: APN blweb, with MCC 470 and MNC 03. Everything else in the APN form can be left blank. Send p1 or p2 to 3343 for automatic setup, or enter the values manually under Settings — Mobile Networks — Access Point Names on any Android device. Samsung, Xiaomi, and stock Android all use the same values with slightly different menu paths. The same APN works for 5G connections — no separate configuration is needed when 5G coverage is available in your area.

If internet still does not work after correct APN entry, the fix is almost always one of three things: zero data balance, mobile data disabled, or the wrong SIM selected as default on a dual-SIM phone. Check those three in order before deleting and re-entering APN values or contacting support. For ongoing connection quality, run a speed test after setup to confirm you are receiving expected 4G speeds and identify whether any persistent slowness is a device issue, tower congestion, or a coverage gap in your location.

Banglalink’s 4G network covers the vast majority of Bangladesh’s population and continues expanding its 5G footprint in urban centres. With correct APN settings in place, your Android device will connect reliably to whichever network generation is strongest in your current location without requiring any further configuration.
