Thank you for the reply,

I am using the default APN that comes with Windows 10 I guess. Had no issue working on my Verizon SIM card.

What do you mean by "broadband"?

Since Windows has a default APN I guess I will have to created one for ATT right?
Not sure what to enter on the empty fields.

That should work but it might need to be a lowercase B?

If your using it on a Windows machine, you may also want to try Skylight Manager to configure the APN.

There was a time we were building PC's with MC7455 to act as media centers and the Skylight Manager worked well for controlling the MC7455 modem.
