Please help

I have a Rain sim and would like to use it with a Vodafone mobile router.
however I am struggling to configurate the APN etc.
What is the IPv4 + IPv6 APN ? and the IPv4 + IPv6 APN DNS1 ? it will not allow me to go further without this information.

Or is there another way around this ?

Please help

Yes you have to add them under APN settings or you won't have data. Most android phones do mot have apn settings for Rain build in so the apn settings are blank.

I think go to mobile data, or LTE setup. One of them should have APN settings
 
Please provide with the APN settings or setup, what do i put on APN, name, password?
 
Got the activation email today, ive set the APN as Rain, but no dice, not connecting or showing any signal bars. Im using an "older" Vodafone MiFi device, but it used to connect to Vodacom 4G so I reckon it should be sufficient.

Spoke to soon, reboted the router and its connected now. Cant say im overly impressed with the speedtest results though, 40ms ping, 7mbps down, 10mbps up.
 
Rain sim cards only work on 4G enabled routers.
I tried the settings on a Vodafone R209-Z router and the settings did not work.
After contacting Rain support I was advised at the aforementioned.
 
- EDIT - Below works... plugged the device into a new USB port and restarted the app...

I have to leave "Network Type" on auto or it finds no cell towers...

But from Friday it started going off totally I have to go to out in the street to look for internet connection. I've tried adding a now APN but its not helping. I even inserted the sim on a different device, still no luck.
