I bought three T-Mobile SIM Starter Kits to use in three Netgear LB1120 4G LTE modems.
The instructions gave me two ways to activate:
1. visit www.t-mobile.com/activation
2. call 1-877-778-2019 from your device
I can't do 2 because my device does not have the capability to dial out.
These Netgear LB1120s do not have dial-out capability.
So I tried www.t-mobile.com/activation
I got routed to https://prepaid.t-mobile.com/prepaid
Now I'm lost.
It seems the web sites are always updating beyond what is printed on the instruction sheets.
What's the best way to get these SIM cards activated on my three Netgear modems?
Also, I will need to be assigned three new phone numbers to manage my T-Mobile Refill cards.
The dial-in method works great with T-Mobile Refill cards provided I have phone numbers.
Or could I grab an old unlocked GSM phone to do the activation with the T-Mobile app and then move the SIM cards over to the Netgear LB1120 cell modems?
Would that work? Be easier to manage?
