LTE connection dropping

Hi All,

 

I'm having really frustrating issues with a C881-4G router and its data connection. I have the same router setup and working so I know my config is right but for some reason this router will not stay connected.

 

I keep getting the following error messages:

 

*Jul 12 07:32:46.179: Ce0 DDR: place call

This is my config and information for the cellular interface. As you will see it lists no network and I can't change it from 15 (Voda) manually to EE and its always inactive. Nothing seems to work.

Hello,

 

Is this your main link, or a backup link?

Hello Becky,

if the SIM comes from a Vodafone router it may be not usable on a cisco router.

There was a similar thread some days ago and the colleague had tried to re-use a vodafone SIM from a vodafone CPE on a cisco router but he discovered this was not possible. He solved using a different SIM.
