Introduction
Before you can connect your Pro Controller to the CCS Server via a cellular network, you must set the APN information for the cellular provider you are using.
Please note that this guide pertains only to BoxScore 1.26 and BoxScore 3.0.4 or lower. For instructions for BoxScore 3.0.9+ (TPC-31) click HERE.
Remember that you must use a data ONLY plan from a GSM carrier.
Finding APN Information
The first step to setting the APN information is finding the correct APN to use. A quick Google search of "(your carrier) data APN settings" should yield results. What you're looking for is the APN settings for the company's data-only or hot spot plan.
