Hi Alfons, Hi Thomas,

We are currently experiencing some delays with our original deployment plan, please bear with us a few more weeks until we can give you some more concrete details.

We will get back to you via this post as soon as we can!

Hi Alfons, Hi Thomas,

I have the pleasure to announce that LTE-M is now available in Germany throughout the country.
Please take a look at https://t-map.telekom.de/tmap2/mobileiot for a detailed view of our coverage map, as well as at https://iot.telekom.com/ for the available pre-paid offerings.

Looking forward to getting your return of experience on our brand new IoT network!

Kind regards,

@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
Alfons

Ronan Lacroix

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

Hi Stefan,

A press release should be issued soon, and more information about the network features and benefits will be posted on this forum in the weeks to come.

Hi Ronan,

we’ll start testing this days here in Munich. Is there a special APN required?

Best regards
Alfons

@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”.

Best,
Ronan
