Hi Folks

The problem I have is when I put my EE sim in my SXT LTE I get no service but when I put any other network SIM in it works perfectly I am aware that you have to set the APN for EE which I have done but still nothing I do have another SXT LTE that is password protected from another provider and the EE SIM works fine in there so I am assuming that I need to change another setting somewhere else please help I have looked through every tab but can't think which setting needs changed

Thanks

Steven

Start by checking the Log section. Any errors under LTE topic?

HI Normis

I don't see anything in the log I have done a reset to defaults then went in and changed the APN! Here is a screenshot of it thank you for your help

Sorry just wanted to add when I goto LTE tab then select LTE1 and ask it to scan I get an error saying couldn't start - modem isn't configured yet

Thanks

Hi

Can anybody help with this please?

please add the LTE logging topic and disable/enable the LTE interface and check the log why it isn't connecting.

Hi

What do you mean add the LTE logging topic? I have disabled and re enabled but has made no difference it doesnt say anything in the log about LTE!

Thanks

Got the LTE logging topic

Got the LTE logging topic

Go to the System Logging section and add new entry with topic LTE.

Hi here is the log

Well, SIM is not inserted, dirty, upside down or something like that.

SIM is 100% in correct and works in another device that has custom software (SIM RUSH) also o2 sim works ok in device and so does vodafone

How about other SIM in this device with SAME orientation as current one?
Modem doesn't see the SIM, that's all I can say.

Other Sim works fine and inserts the same way what I would say is the chip on the sim is slightly different here are all 3 sims from left to right is o2 then Vodafone then EE like I said the sim works fine when it is in the exact same model but it has custom software on it

Sorry bottom to top is o2 then vodafone then ee

I cant get in to the one that has custom software as I dont have the admin password and they have disabled all the features except the APN list

Does anybody else on this forum have an SXT working with an EE sim

Thanks

So you probably mean the UK operator EE.
Still, the SIM is not being detected. Maybe the thickness is different?
Try some sticky tape under it maybe. The newer SXT LTE model has two slots. Also try another SIM slot. Then you will have to adjust the used slot in the RouterOS settings.

Hi

Yes UK EE Can you tell me where to find the option to switch to other sim port I have seen it before but cant exactly remember where

Thanks

you can read more here: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Dual_SIM_Application

Hi there,
So the SimRush unit is working fine, glad to hear it. We usually default to EE's network but we also do support other networks.
SIM Slot is in the System > Routerboard section
SimRush equipment is also designed to automatically failover between SIM Slots so you don't have to worry.
If you need support with SimRush equipment we can help www.simrush.com
We've also got stock of equipment if you need to purchase another SimRush unit.
Many thanks

Hi,

Just a quick update to let you know it looks like it is the sim that is slightly thinner and is not making good contact because when I put pressure on the sim holder it connects! not sure why it connects ok in the other device it might be the contacts are protruding out more

Thanks for the help

Good to hear! This is why i suggested sticky tape, some SIM cards are indeed thinner

Hi there CStech, I was wondering could you explain how I would go about changing the APN for the EE Sim Card in The LTX,
