I agree with Matthew. Both, the simple and non-simple interface should allow to explicitly set the CID. Having this implemented, all these odd configurations can be handled.

Didn't Verizon require to use CID=4 for the same purpose in their modems? Vzw is a little odd, they require their default APN in context #3, but apparently, and we've yet to make this work, they(Vzw) say that if you use context #1, which auto populates with 'vzwadmin' will, after the first attach the carrier, self provision the rest of the context's. Docomo in Japan wouldn't do 4G without use of context #1 populated. SK Telecom in S. Korea wouldn't connect without using context #1, using blank context #1 populated other context's I recall a patch were we allowed specifying the CID to use explicitly yes, and the non-simple interface. We still use it, and without it those cases above would not work.

So, if we were to add a logic that assumes "initial LTE bearer settings are those in CID=1" then that would need to be tied to a specific device. Didn't Verizon require to use CID=4 for the same purpose in their modems? (or something like that) @matthew stanger what was that about? I recall a patch were we allowed specifying the CID to use explicitly via Simple.Connect() for this very same purpose. -- Aleksander https://aleksander.es
