Lumia 1520 windows 10 no apn settings

My HK 1520 never had apn settings in 8.0 but I could use access point which was removed in 8.1. I upgraded to W10 but the add apn option is still missing. Is there any other way to add apn in W10? How come the apn option is missing from my 1520?

Hi, if you go to settings > Network & wireless > Mobile & SIM > click 'SIM settings', scroll down and there is and option to 'Add an Internet APN'.

Unfortunately my 1520 is missing that setting. Is there anyway around that?

What Win10 build version are you running?

10.0.10586.318

Bump. Anyone got any ideas? I'm guessing apn is disabled for the Hong Kong firmware for some stupid reason.

Hi, I'm using an L1520 and I once encountered that problem on one of the Redstone builds, a hard reset fixed things for me but the build was trash and unusable so I went back to win8.1 and updated to the Threshold builds and have never encountered it since. Try hard resetting and see if it still unavailable. Are you able to connect to the internet regardless of the setting missing? If so, I wouldn't worry much about it.
