help Netgear air card 77s1 need to activate

[smkyballs]

hello I have a net gear air card 771s how to I go about getting it activated today what steps can I take

As its a Sprint device, you would need a sprint account sim... Not sure if Sprint is still around lol...If its an unlocked version, then you will need a carrier sim that the device supports.

thank you for the reply but I'm having a hard time figuring this out I have no idea on what to do

What carrier? Location? Branded device or Unlocked?

It's a Netgear 771s sprint it's unlocked. T mobile is giving me such a problem I can't do it through them I just need a direction

You will need to activate through the carrier, no work arounds for that

what specific problem are you having with it? give us specifics so we know what's going on. If it's truly an unlocked device, once you put the SIM in, it should pick up a signal and connect. What errors have you encountered. T-Mobile, to me, is the least restrictive carrier of all the big three. give us the steps you have taken so far and where are you stuck at.

Here is the User Guide you can DL and use to help you troubleshoot, if you require it: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/aircard/4114045%20Sprint%20AC771S%20UG%20r2.pdf

If it is an unlocked device, it may not have the correct apns. Put the sim in a phone and register it on the network. Pop it out and try in the device
