Connecting to nrfcloud with SIM from another vendor

I connected to nrfcloud using a SIM card from iBasis and the asset tracker example.

Is it possible to connect to nrfcloud using a SIM card from another vendor? (in my case Telenor) When running the asset tracker example with the Telenor SIM card, led 3 blinks indefinitely, and the LTE Link monitor looks like this:

Hello,

There should not be any difference between iBasis and Telenor SIM. Did you power cycle between change? Can you please try to run the AT Clint and give me the output from LTE Link Monitor?

Thanks!

Kind regards,

Hello,

thank you. I did power cycle a few times. This is the output from the at client example.

I'm sorry, I did not specify that when the message "The AT host sample started" you must issue the command "AT+CFUN?" This should output more information from your modem. See this tutorial for more information

Ah ok, thanks.
Issuing the command once returned this:

Thank you! Can you please do the same with your iBasis SIM? I assume this is with the Telenor SIM?

I edited your comment by adding the output in code format (Insert -> Insert Code) to make it more readable.

I will go through the output to see what is going on.

Thank you. Yes, the first one was Telenor, this is iBasis.
With iBasis, the Modem, UICC, LTE and PDN bars all turn green after the second "AT+CFUN?" command. With Telenor, only the Modem bar turns green.
