how to use SIM slot in CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+

Hello,
Is anyone around who is using a SIM in the CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+?
I have just put in standard SIM, which worked well in my phone, in the SIM slot but nothing happens.

Its specification says:

Number of SIM slots 1 Smart card (Mini SIM)

but Interface in SMS or LTE Scanner shows unknown.

So what to do?

http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/add-lte-sim-card-to-ccr1009-7g-1c-1s/150787/1 reads not that good…

do I need extra hardware?
like mentioned in

With usb 3/4/5G modem! The router have sd slot and smart card slot only!

Wow that was a quick answer :grinning_face:, so the smart cart slot can read smart cards which have the shape of a mini SIM?
So the description is bit misleading…

Anyway, so I need a usb modem and an adapter for mini usb


By the way, what is a smart cart used for in a ccr?

Projects that have been abandoned by mikrotik, such as vpn tunnel crypto keys, etc.

thanks for the information
