Can't register on Verizon

Hello,

Recently, I purchased a Cradlepoint MC400LP6 Integrated 4G LTE Modem (Multi-Carrier) along with a Cradlepoint router. When I tried to purchase a Verizon SIM for it, I get a message saying "Sorry, our network no longer supports this device." Any ideas on how to proceed? I thought this modem was supported on Verizon.

Thanks

Ahhh Verizon.

The MC400LP6 is a completely accepted modem for Verizon, since it has an official firmware for it. The same goes for its base modem, the Sierra MC7455. Verizon is just being a turd.

You could play with the IMEI, but I can't help with that. You had best own the devices of the IMEIs of anything you have on any network. Just my opinion, and maybe the FCC too. ;)

I've run that Cradlepoint on VZ. If you can buy / borrow a cheap VZ hotspot, then get a sim for it, and then sim swap to the Cradlepoint. It will work just fine.

yeah the ol, pop in cell phone first always works to get those sims going. with visible, and I believe cricket you need a new mvoip or something type of device to use their services.
