Can't get Verizon to work in a router
Posted: Sun Apr 12, 2020 12:08 pm
Hello,
I have a mofi4500 sim4 as of right now, (I'm going to return it and build my own after reading through this site), and my current service is at&t. I put a Verizon sim card from someones phone into the router to test if it would work, and I couldn't get it to connect at all. I tried changing the firmware to verizon and generic, and I also tried changing the apn to verizon and auto. The cell mapper website told me that the verizon tower is very close to the at&t tower, but I adjusted my yagis anyways to see if it would help to no avail.
As a side note, the phone the sim came from gets great service here, so I'm wondering if Verizon doesn't allow their sim cards to go into routers maybe? Does anyone have experience with this?
