Is there a way I can use eSIM with Mikrotik?

Another solution for those that need to regularly swap SIM cards could come from esim.me :slight_smile:

esim.me it’s classic SIM card that has embedded space for up to 15 eSIM profiles :slight_smile:

At the moment managing/activating the SIM cards is done via an app on a mobile phone,
but maybe they (esim.me) will be open to help with AT commands on how to manged this process from CLI …
and save people climbing up the roof and trying to fiddle with the SIM cards there :wink:

Only downside of eSIM is that it needs “Internet” connection in order to load/unload the profile from eSIM module …
and it’s pain in the back when it does not unload correctly as this means going to MNO/MVNO and requesting new eSIM profile :frowning:
