Thanks for the info about APN. I tried google, but it's still not clear to me. I have the iPhone 6, and I don't see the APN settings anywhere. I understand that there's an app available at unlockit.co.nz, but I'm reluctant to download. My iPhone 6 is unlocked. I was hoping to pop in the SIM and it will work seamlessly.
I'm an Android guy myself, but I put one of these into an iPhone 5s recently and the settings automatically populated. To verify that's the case for your 6, insert the SIM, check Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network and make sure the APN field says "internet" or "orangeworld". If you're on Sprint or Verizon, you won't be able to see the APN settings until you insert the card. (You'll want to disable data roaming in the Cellular menu before inserting the SIM if you're still at home to avoid immediately burning through the credit on your SIM with expensive international roaming.) If it's blank, set the APN to "orangeworld", and the username/password to "orange".
