Hi Domi,

Thank you for the quick and detailed response.
I'm interested in the first scenario you described (ongoing service,
espaclly data).

If I understand you correctly, the change is triggered by the network
provider but the actual switch is made by the modem itself (according to
the operator instructions)?
If that is the case, maybe there's a way to catch this event/s?

Thanks you again,
Ravid
