Telit Cinterion LE910C1: APN and network setup with an IoT SIM

Updated 27 October 2026

The Telit Cinterion LE910C1 is a cellular module for LTE Cat-1 with 3G and 2G fallback; it also has GNSS. With an IoT SIM, you set the APN, then check that the module is registered, at home or in roaming. The commands below are the standard ones of 3GPP TS 27.007. Telit Cinterion's AT command reference guides require a customer login; vendor commands for context activation and technology selection are documented there.

Key facts

2G and 3G fallback depend on the variant: the LE910C1-EU and -LA list both, the -NF lists 3G only, the -IN 2G only, and the -SAX, -APX and -SNX neither (Telit LE910Cx Linux and ThreadX pages).

Set the APN

The standard 3GPP command defines the APN of PDP context 1:

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<apn>"

Source: 3GPP TS 27.007. Check Telit Cinterion's AT command manual for the context number this module uses.

Replace <apn> with the APN shown in your M2M.global account: the internet APN, or your private APN.

Check that it works

AT+CPIN?        SIM ready? expect +CPIN: READY
AT+CEREG?       LTE registration: stat 1 = home network, 5 = roaming
AT+COPS?        network the module is using
AT+CGDCONT?     APN actually configured

An IoT SIM that works in many countries is often registered in roaming: +CEREG: 0,5 is a valid, working registration. Firmware that waits only for status 1 (home network) never goes online on such a SIM. Status values come from 3GPP TS 27.007.

Networks and shutdowns

• 2G fallback helps only where 2G still runs. Many operators have switched it off: see the 2G and 3G shutdown dates.
• Private delivery works with any module: the privacy is in the network path, not in the device. See private delivery.
