Guide by Tim; 4G and GPS HAT For Raspberry Pi - Waveshare SIM7600X

Hi Samuel.

Thanks for the info.

I had been thinking about the possible APN issue… The instructions I followed here … Get Started with Super SIM, the Raspberry Pi 4 and the Waveshare 4G Hat | Twilio
Did not explain ( although now it is obvious) the the APN setting “super” needs to reflect the APN of the intended network. Unless you research AT+CGDCONT instruction, its not obvious about whats going on and unfortunately, not explained!

I changed mine to AT+CGDCONT=1,“IP”,“telstra.internet” when using minicom. Woo hoo up and running…
Now to get this HAT to work when mounted on the RPi 4B… Nothing like a challenge…!
