Good day all,

I am trying to setup the Unrestricted APN for my Vodacom R206-Z.

I have so far:
1. Sent the application and copy of my ID to vodacom.
2. I have confirmation that this service (unrestricted apn) has been applied to my telephone number.

The issue though is when I am trying to setup the APN settings, it is asking me for IPv4 Number (which out this field it will not let me save the APN settings).

I have two options (seen in screenshots) -
1. "Vodacom" - this has default settings
2. "Custom" - this is where I am assuming you change the APN to unrestricted.

When I use "Custom" I am told by the technical folks at 082155 under APN name = Unrestricted but then when we get to finding out what IPv4 number to use we get a blue screen by the technical guys. They "never heard" of this and after being put through 4 different numbers, I thought I would revert to the smart guys here.

IPv4 does not accept a IP address format x.x.x.x it needs just a numeric number. I have tried 0 and saved the settings rebooted everything but still DDYNS, Remote Desktop etc doesnt work - so I dont think 0 is the correct guess.

I would really appreciate some pointers.
