Here’s the fix for your Singtel Gomo Intermittent Internet connection
The intermittent Internet connection issue when using your SingTel GOMO SIM Card is happening mostly due to these 2 reasons: 1) you are running out of your Internet quota / mobile data or 2) you are using the wrong APN (Access Point Name) a.k.a the gateway setting to the Internet. Check out the steps below on how to fix it.
1) Check your Singtel GOMO Internet Quota / Mobile Data Leftover
a) Install Singtel GOMO app if you have not installed it previously. Here’s the link to get SingTel GOMO app.
b) Open Singtel GOMO app. Ensure you are not connected to Wi-Fi when you are opening the app. If you are now connected to Wi-FI, please disconnect Wi-Fi and ensure your GOMO cellular data is turned on.
c) Once the Singtel GOMO app is opened, you should be able to see the leftover mobile data that you have.
In any case it has reached zero MB, that’s the reason you can’t connect to the Internet. In that case, wait for your next cycle or top-up your Singtel GOMO data.
2) Check and Setup Correct Singtel GOMO APN Settings
APN (Access Point Name) is the “gateway” between your phone and your telco operator (in this case SingTel), to enable you to connect and browse the Internet. On most cases, Singtel GOMO default APN setup is the wrong one – not sure why – hence resulting you can’t connect to the Internet / intermittently get disconnected from the Internet while browsing.
Follow these steps to check and setup the correct Singtel GOMO APN Settings.
On Android (the steps & menu may vary on different Android devices):
a) Go to Settings > Mobile Network > Access Point Name.
b) Tap on New APN or edit existing.
On iOS (iPhone / iPad):
a) Go to Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network.
On both Android and iOS:
a) Enter the following settings for Cellular Data / Internet.
| Item | Cellular Data / Internet |
|---|---|
| APN | hicard |
| Username | <leave blank> |
| Password | <leave blank> |
b) Enter the following settings for MMS.
| Item | MMS |
|---|---|
| APN | hicard |
| Username | <leave blank> |
| Password | <leave blank> |
| MMSC | http://mms.singtel.com:10021/mmsc |
| MMS Proxy | 165.21.42.84:8080 |
| MMS Max Message Size | 307200 |
| MMS UA Prof URL | <leave blank> |
Once you have setup the APN settings like above, try opening your browser and key in your favorite website (such as https://jilaxzone.com) – if you have Internet quota / mobile data leftover, after changing the APN to the correct one you should now be able to connect and browse the Internet.

Hi, came across your site while trying to figure out what’s wrong with my iPhone connection. Glad it is not the phone itself but Gomo plan, I’m trying your method and will see if it works for the next few days. But really thanks for this article! My holy grail
Hi Karen,
Hopefully the method can work good on you.
Hi,
So far so good leh…no issues as yet 🤞🏻
U r a saviour!
Hi Karen,
Glad it works great for you.
Hi, fixed my iPhone connection problem with your APN settings and it worked for a while. However, it’s now again back to “Waiting for Network” when I switch to data. Tried restarting phone and removing/inserting SIM card again – doesn’t work 😓
Thanks for this!
I did the above and my issues still exists.
Certain locations I will get bad or no conection at all.
I have change sim card and various troubleshooting methods source from youtube and google
It only happened after I change from 4G tp 5G gomo plan.
The only thing I havent done is do a hard reset.
The next course of action is of cos to change my mobile provider… just wondering if you have any other tips for mroe testing?
Hi Edwin,
Likely your phone is stucked on 5G while there’s (likely) no 5G recepetion on the area.
Try disabling 5G and only connect to 4G – at least to test out whether the defect is with the new SIM Card, with the phone or just with the reception area.
Hope the issue is just the 5G reception area.
I solved this problem with GOMO guide but one fine day, hicard does not work anymore. Then I reset the mobile data setting which goes back to eideas and it worked. The next day, it failed again and I had to go back to hicard. I am totally lost at this point.
a check with Gomo Chat(Zenmo), it should be:
e-ideas for local
hicard for oversea roaming
