Hi farmertom

First off, what do you mean by "copy" of a Samsung Galaxy s3 ?
Also, is this your first time using a 48 sim in your handset or have you been with 48 for a while ?
Is your phone unlocked and have you registered your sim online ?
If you could reply with a little more information ill gladly try help with your sim problem !

Does your handset use android ?
If not, setting up Internet settings may be a little tricky as we are not familiar with fake handsets.
When you go into Internet settings, is there an option to change the APN?

Hi farmertom

If you tap settings>more settings>mobile networks >access point names > 48>

The list of Internet settings should appear for you to change.
This is how you change the settings on a legitimate Samsung Galaxy S3 so I presume if your device is running the same OS it should be the same.

I hope this works,

See if Tweakker APN can configure your settings automatically maybe?
