samba dongle

As samba has gone out of business I wondered if it is possible to use with another provider. Its a zte mf190 and I have put a sim in and the green light comes on but it doesnt connect to the net.

I came across this site with settings for other providers http://www.mobilez.org/support/apns/uk/ is there anything else I can do ?
Thanks

Assuming is unlocked you will need to setup the appropriate APN, and user name and / or password if required. As per the site you linked too.

As I said it doesnt connect to the internet with the logon and password from this site even though the light is green

Vodafone or EE? Those setting appear to be for the now defunct Vodafone service from Asda.

That's a mobile phone SIM, but you can try to get it working using the settings here:

APN Description Name: - type in your own personalised description here
APN name: everywhere
Username: eesecure
Password: secure

If a dial number is needed, use *99#

Once complete, set it as the Default.
