I have a mofi 4500 sim 7 router. I installed a t mobile tab sims card also tried LG stylo 5 sims card. The router see the sims card but will not connect to internet. What can I do?

I'm not familiar with the MOFI firmware. Is there a place to check SMS messages? Tmo sends text messages some times that tell you some info. Even to the tab lines

Where did you get the SIM from?
Did you get it activated?

I have a t mobile tablet sims card and LG phone tmobile sims card. I have tried both.

Need to do more than just pop in a SIM. Can you explain what you did for the setup of the MoFi?

Make sure you have the correct APN is selected (Access Point Name )
For T-Mobile its “T-Mobile (New) (fast.t-mobile.com) (USA)"

See this YouTube video for clues https://youtu.be/fdWDO2an8o4

Yes I used that but cannot get to internet

I used the set up instructions that came with mofi.

TTL of 64 for TMobile

I am not sure about 64 will check when I get home.

It’s getting harder to a 4G modem/hotspot onto a carriers network with the iPad SIM trick.

Sadly they are onto that game. I have setup a MoFi 4500 SIM7 with T-Mobile, but used an after market MVNO the SIM/plan that cost a $100 month for 900Gig of data.

I hope you can get the iPad SIM trick to work!! If you do please share the information.
You can play with the TTL setting ……… Good luck!

TTL (time to live) is a setting that tells the DNS resolver how long to cache a query before requesting a new one.

A mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) is a wireless communications services provider that does not own the wireless network infrastructure over which it provides services to its customers
