SXT LTE Dual Sim - Auto switching between SIMs?

Fri Nov 12, 2021 6:38 pm

Hi all,
I have a customer who has a 4G SXT system installed and is connecting via EE here in the UK. Recently there have been a lot of dropouts and signal loss from this carrier which is a big problem as the customer's business has a VOIP phone system, Wi-Fi and Card machines which all rely having internet to operate.

His SXT LTE kit has twin sim slots so adding an alternate carrier isn't a problem. Is there a way of programming the system to automatically switch from the primary sim (EE) to a secondary (probably O2) when the signal drops out?.

Thank you in advance for your help

Joe.

See lte wiki.
There is a whole section on dual sim usage.

Thank you for this, i will look into this in more detail, in the meantime have popped in a Lebara (Vodafone) SIM and had a much better connection quality albeit slower download speeds.
