Verizon APN - do I leave it blank?

[chahn-ds]

Hi,

I found this forum post about the Verizon APN:

https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/46288/nrf9160-verizon-sim

This implies that I don't have to use "AT+CGDCONT=0" to configure an APN.  Is it true that I don't have to do a CGDCONT and the nRF9160 will populate the correct APN?  I don't have a Verizon SIM yet to try this.

Thanks,

Chris

I spoke with Don Janysek and he says that he's never had to load the APN with SIMs directlt from Tmobile, ATT or Verizon.  He has had to manually set the APN for some MVNOs.  For now my customer isn't using MVNOs, so I don't have to worry about that..  

So I think this answer is resolved.  I don't have to manually set the APN with AT+CGDCONT.  The nRF9160 is able to populate the APN.
