have a pepwave Max BR1 mini LTEA - w - t installed in my RV. I was with sprint which is now t-mobile. T-mobile has shut down my service and have said that by system is not compatible with their network. and want to sell me a router that will work with their network.
it hard for me to believe that this problem cannot be solved. and i am sure that i am not the only person who is having this problem.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I have read that you may need a M2M plan, or a business account with T-mobile.
thanks for the help…

As a practical matter, T-Mobile consumer plans such as the Magenta plan are known to work on the Max BR1 mini LTEA-w-t (a neighbor of mine has one, and the Magenta plan works quite well for her). I also believe it is within the T-Mobile policy to do so, since they offer lines for tablets, “connected devices”, etc.
A quick check on the neighbor’s IMEI on T-Mobile’s compatibility checker responds with
Your phone is fully compatible with T-Mobile’s network technology.
Your phone is not blocked from use on our network.
I’d recommend you get a SIM card from them on-line and try it out - the subscription is month-by-month so the investment is minimal.
Good luck.
