Hi Thomas,

So please stay tune!

@Ronan-Lacroix Hi Ronan, thats great news!
Are there special SIM cards required to access the network or do “normal” LTE SIM Cards work as well?Best regards

Hi Alfons,
We of course recommend our IoT SIM cards and their tailored IoT tariffs, but for test purpose, you may also use a “standard” consumer DT SIM-card.
Both SIM materials will provide you with full access to our LTE-M network, including its power-saving features (PSM and Long-Periodic TAU initially).Best,
Ronan

Nice! Did you issue a press release? Or more info somewhere?

@Ronan-Lacroix Thanks! Great job

Hi Ronan,
we’ll start testing this days here in Munich. Is there a special APN required?
Best regards

@apuhl , with a classic M2M GSIM (IMSI starting with 90140), you may use the standard APN “internet.m2mportal.de”, with a Consumer SIM card (starting with 26201), it should be “internet.telekom.de”.
