FG621-EA Modem esim support

Hardware

According to:
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/spaces/ROS/pages/30146563/LTE#LTE-ModemeSIMmanagementsupporttable

esim is supported but does not work with empty profile.

Please provide more info on how to get this going.

Have tried:

/interface/lte/esim> provision interface=lte1 sm-dp-plus=smdpplusXXX.com matching-id=XXXXXXXX

status: couldn’t communicate with eSIM

There is no esim chip on that modem.
So you must use a physical SIM card which can handle esim profiles and you need to program the first profile separately before inserting that SIM into the device (e.g. from your phone).

Have a look at esim.me.

After that, you should be able to use the esim commands.

Thanks @holvoetn.
Is the module from esim.me known and confirmed to work?

No personal experience yet.
I have been looking at similar offerings to try it myself but I didn’t get there yet.

Some other suggestions:

  1. esim.me $35
  2. esim.5ber.com $25
  3. sysmocom.de $24
  4. .9esim.com $24
