Cellular Cards figured out?

Hi,

I’ve tried (3) different cellular cards (1) VZW data only and added in the correct name, (1) ATT data only and added in correct name and (1) VZW voice/data and all failed. I would like to use this unit, however, I can’t keep trying new cellular cards/providers. Have any new releases fixed this issue where it connects for a few minutes then disconnects?

Hello and welcome to the AutoPi community.

We recommend T-Mobile or AT&T normal sim cards.
Regarding the ATT data only SIM: the modem is fully capable of a 4G connection but ATT’s system considers it to be a 3G only modem and as such it will not activate it for usage.
