Configuring Roaming and APN Settings on ZTE Routers

There are two ways to access your ZTE router's settings and update the roaming and APN configuration: through the ZTELink app, or by connecting to the router's webpage using its IP address. Both methods require you to be connected to the router's own WiFi network first.

Screenshots may vary slightly between ZTE models, but the settings values are the same across devices.

Method 1: Using the ZTELink App

1

Download the ZTELink app

Install ZTELink from the App Store or Google Play.
