VPN on Vodacom 3G

How to setup Vodacom 3G VPN

The 3G does not neccesarily come configured to use with a standard Microsoft or PPTP VPN connection. You will need to:

• Call Vodacom on 082 155 and ask them to switch you over to the 'internetvpn' APN, from your current 'internet' APN.
• Depending on what phone or card you have, you may or may not have to set the setting manually on the phone or in the card's software
