I have a MAX Transit with a Google Fi data-only sim. It works, sometimes, and is highly dependent on my location. When I get a connection, it works just as designed.
When it doesn’t provide a connection, it first is in “Initializing” state and then settles in to a “Resetting” mode. It says the SIM is “In use” but otherwise doesn’t provide any other engineering data. I’ve tried switching data SIMs (they both work on a tablet), switching slots, changing the APN from auto to h2g2, upgrading the cellular modem firmware, upgrading to the latest beta device firmware… nothing seems to change this. I would suspect that the carrier is rejecting the connection, yet the same SIM works on a different data-only device so that points the finger back at the MAX Transit.
Anyone experienced something similar? The fact it works when I’m in some locations/connected to certain towers and not others is weird.
Thanks.
