APN parameters need to be changed to 'internet' for initial smartphone connectionTroubleshooting Steps
Resolution
There is a parameter within the phone called APN (Access Point Networks) and these are the parameters that the phone used to connect the SIM to the LTE network. By default, the APN parameters out of the box will not work with a Ruckus LTE / Ruckus SIM solution. If you are not using a Ruckus LTE/SIM solution, then please refer to your LTE/SIM provider for APN instructions.For Ruckus LTE/SIM solution, please go to the following phone settings to chane APN parameters.
Go to Settings --> Connections --> Mobile Networks --> Access Points Names --> Add
Within this section under Name add 'internet' and under APN add 'internet'. Also MCC (mobile country code) should be 315 and MNC (mobile network code) should be 010 (There is a bug in Galaxy S10 where it shows 01 for MNC but it should auto populate to 010 if GS10+ is running Feb or post Feb 2020 SW), change all 4 of those parameters. Then click on the 3 dots to Save the profile called internet.
Below is a visual of the first 4 parameters that need to be modified, Name and APN along with the MCC and MNC:
After you have saved the profile and selected the APN internet profile, go to Mobile Networks, select Network Operators, and finally select 315010 and your phone will connect 1-4 mins later:
Once it is connected to Ruckus AP and Ruckus LTE, you will see the words ‘LTE’ next to the 5 bars.
