Excess Telecom APN (Access Point Name) is a setting on mobile devices with Excess Telecom SIM that wishes to receive network services and connect to the internet. An internet connection requires a data plan and users to be within network coverage. Excess Telecom uses the T-Mobile network infrastructure so coverage should never be an issue.
An APN is essentially the name of the gateway on the network. It comes with a host of other configurations that allows devices to connect to the network and receive network services like MMS, internet and more. I have provided settings for Android and iOS/iPhone below and you can use them with any other operating system once you locate the APN settings location.
