    Has anyone successfully activated a Verizon nano SIM on their Fibocom L850-GL WWAN in the US? When I enter my device ID on My Verizon, it says my device isn't compatible (whereas the Sierra WWAN modems on the older X1C's DO have device ID's that Verizon recognizes).

    Update: it works, but I had to use a SIM that had been previously activated in another notebook. Also, in order to get the X1C to recognize the SIM, it had to be inserted when the machine is powered off completely (not just in sleep mode).
