MiFi Devices:
We can confirm that your ‘Japan Tourist’ data-only SIM card can be installed in any fully unlocked device (such as a phone, tablet or MiFi device etc) that supports the required 3G Band 1 (2100MHz) / 4G Band 1 (2100MHz) frequencies.
If you have installed the SIM card in a MiFi device, please be advised that (in most cases) you will be required to configure the APN (Access Point Name) profile using the settings below:
APN: ppsim.jp
Username: pp@sim
Password: jpn
On the majority of MiFi devices, you would configure the APN by accessing the admin site:
- Open a web browser on a device you have connected to the MiFi network and enter the relevant IP address in the address bar (For example on a laptop, open Internet Explorer and enter 192.168.1.1 in the address bar).
- If prompted enter the admin username and password for your device.
- Access the “Settings” menu to find the “APN” (Access Point Name) section and then enter the required settings shown above.
If you are using a portable WiFi device that has a built-in screen however, you may be able to access the “Settings” menu this way instead and then enter the required APN settings.
Note: The steps above are generic and are provided as a basic guide only. You may need to refer to the manufacturer’s user guide for your specific device if the instructions above are not correct for your device.
