NOS Portugal 4G LTE 5G APN Settings for Android, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 16, iPhone 15, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Xiaomi, Oppo, Motorola, Huawei, Honor and 5G WiFi Router.
Settings last verified: October 2026.

Quick answer: the NOS Portugal APN is umts, with no username or password.

NOS sends the APN to the phone automatically and can replace a manual entry, so set it by hand only when there is no data. The APN umts carries data and MMS; internet also works for data.

NOS 5G APN

NOS uses the same APN on 5G as on 4G LTE. To use 5G, pick it in the phone network mode:
Samsung Galaxy: Settings -> Connections -> Mobile networks -> Network mode -> 5G/LTE/3G/2G (auto connect).
iPhone 12 or later: Settings -> Mobile Service -> Mobile Data Options -> Voice & Data -> 5G Auto.

NOS APN Tips

  • In a 5G hotspot or router open the web admin page (usually 192.168.1.1), go to the connection settings and create a profile with the APN umts or internet.
  • If your phone keeps switching back to umts, leave it: that is the NOS default.
