FiPy does not connect to LTE



  • Hi There, I am facing an issue where the FiPy is unable to connect to the LTE. I have tried 3 different SIMs(Tmobile, AT & T and Arduino) and have the same issue.
    When I run the below code, it keeps displaying this info:

    lte = LTE()
    #some carriers have special requirements, check print(lte.send_at_cmd("AT+SQNCTM=?")) to see if your carrier is listed.

    #also, check the band settings with your carrier

        print(lte.send_at_cmd('AT!="fsm"'))
    print("] connected!")
    
    print(socket.getaddrinfo('pybytes.pycom.io', 80))  
    lte.deinit()
    #now we can safely machine.deepsleep()
    


  • Please check the page here: https://docs.pycom.io/tutorials/networks/lte/#lte-troubleshooting-guide. Can you confirm the simcards are specifically for NB-IoT and/or CAT-M1 LTE networks, and not the regular 4G mobile phone simcards? also confirm with the carrier whether the there is coverage in your region
