GL-X3000 working with USMobile (physical SIM)

Routers
1

(No question; just wanted to report a working setup for USMobile as I've seen several questions about using them.)

This is using a USMobile WARP sim (not darkstar).
I had to set the APN to VZWInternet, it auto-detected something like VZWAdmin.
It got IP address with admin but would not route.
Once the APN was set it got both IPv4 & IPv6 (which is critical for us).

Firmware: 4.0 0800snapshot1

I'll add that US Mobile via a Lightspeed (T-Mobile) physical sim is working on my X3000 on 4.7.4.

I second that physical sim is working on lightspeed vix x3000. Apparently someone got the esim to work on the gl.inet physical esim card. Need to test it.

Looking at getting X3000 and getting a US-M plan. Specifically for Verizon (warp) and att (dark star) my cell is T-MO. I'm doing this to replace my fiber cost at home and cut the starlink to standby.

It sounds like you (and others) are saying physical sims are better for using the X3000?

Do I need to get an unlimited phone data (not hotspot data)? I can't find on the what and when you get throttled back.

Thank you for your help.

I've had X3000 on unlimited WARP and have a growing fleet using a common pool of minutes with Warp and Dark Star. We have Light Speed (T-mobile) SIMs on order to test with.

You just need to set the APN and you're good to go.
