Install The Micro-Sim Card - NETGEAR 779S User Manual

• Make sure that you get a data-enabled SIM:
• Some phone SIMs work, but not all. Best practice is to use a hotspot or tablet SIM.
Phone SIMs and hotspot and tablet SIMs look the same but work differently on the
network.
• If you want to use 4G LTE data, make sure that the service provides 4G capability.
• Get the APN from the service provider:
• The APN is often listed in the literature that came with the SIM.
• The service provider website might also list the APN information.
• As a last resort, most service provider APN information is available through a web
search. For example, search for <service provider name> APN.
• For information about adding, selecting, or removing APNs, see
Hotspot's Access Point Name
