Hey,

I have the same proplem like you but my Location is Germany close to Stuttgart.

I already activated the IBasis Sim but Nothing happens.

I do have some news.

Following advice of Jakob I contacted Orange (I know people there).

They activated the cell near to me, and the nrF9160-DK connects, and sends messages to nrfcloud!!

The standard firmware of the nrf9160-DK is LTE-M. So the device will try to connect to the cloud over LTE-M.

They are ready for LTE-M it seems, but only updating their antenna's if needed. I have not tried Proximus.

Hi Jakob,

I heard from Orange last year that LTE-M was ready but not activated, I expected it should be now....

What about Proximus ?

What about NB-IoT

Is the DK trying only LTE-M ?

Kind regards,

Silvian

Hi,

I had the same issue a while ago. The LTE-M network of Orange is only fully deployed in Brussels centre.

If you have a contact person at Orange, you can request them to activate LTE-M on the antenna closest to your location.

Kind regards,

Jakob
