Problem with car modem

Bicax · Oct 27th, 2018, 19:22

Hi guys,

I have been driving my XC90 for over a year now, and I've been using the car's modem for Internet connectivity (4G SIM card with 10Gb/month of data) without any issues.

That was until the car did its first revision a week ago at a Volvo dealer (Sensus was updated as well as other apps and maps). Since then, the Internet connection in the car had been working on and off, and eventually totally stopped working a couple of days ago.

The SIM card is still recognised though, and it still shows a full strength signal. It's just the Internet connection that doesn't work anymore.

I tried puting the card in my phone, and the data plan is working flawlessly, so I'm pretty positive the issue doesn't lie with the card itself.

I also tried putting my other SIM card in the car, and the strange thing is that Internet works with that one.

What I don't understand is why the Internet connectivity is only lost with a specific SIM card, since that same card appears to be working fine in my phone.

I would rather avoid a trip back to the dealer for nothing, so any ideas are welcome...
