Firmware 8.1.1 5009 Auto Network Mode problem

Product Discussion Pepwave MAX

So far I’ve had two new MAXBR1-Mini Core units with FW 8.0.2s quit communicating with InControl after being upgraded to 8.1.1 5009. These units were powered up with Verizon SIM cards and the factory config using the “Auto” in SIM network selection which detected the network correctly as Verizon. As soon as they were upgraded to 8.1.1 they quit communicating and I found the “Auto” was detecting the Verizon SIM as ATT/TMobile. Tried resetting the cellular module and power cycling but didn’t help. Had to manually set the network setting to Verizon so they would communicate again. Is this a known bug in 8.1.1?

Thanks

Have also observed this issue on the Max Transit Mini running firmware 8.1.0 build 4941. Upgrading to 8.1.2 build 5054 appears to resolve the issue.
