Problems configuring the nRF9160DK with Quick Start.

I was trying to setup a nordic nRF9160DK following the steps present on the first lesson of the course "Cellular IoT Fundamentals", and fail to do so. When I got to the verification part after programming it, it failed and got the next Log:

I have to say that the board I am using is an older revision of the same, since it was one of the first ones to come out in 2019 (the MCU selection switch is still SW5). Also, it was previously used by someone, so maybe it has something to do with that but I don't really know. What can the problem be and how could I fix it?

  • Hi Dejans,

    Thank you for your response.

    First I tried the asset tracker v2 and didn't work. The same happend with AT Commands. Finally I tried shell command line interface and it did work. I used the cellular monitor and I gess everything was fine. Now I have another problem that it's related to nRF Cloud. I am unable to register my device. When I try to add it to my account, it gives me the next error code: 40412. I have seen the possible related issues and I don't know what could be wrong.

    If you could help me with this I would really aprecciate it.

    Kind regards,
