Greetings,
I'm working with a u-blox SARA R410M CAT M1 modem
(https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/sara-r4n4-series) using Linux 4.15
and modem-manager-1.9.0 / libqmi-utils-1.21.4 from Aleksander's next
PPA. My SIM is a Verizon 4G LTE Cat M1 SIM Card from Nibelink
(https://nimbelink.com/Documentation/Sim_Cards/NL-SIM-VER-M1/1001410_NL-SIM-VER-M1_Datasheet.pdf)
and I've activated it with Nibelink.
While modemmanager is able to detect, enable, and successfully scan it
won't connect.

Seems like qmicli is telling me I'm not registered on a network so
perhaps a SIM/provisioning issue?
