Maybe this will help..........
The unit comes with a SIM card specifically designed for Winegard data plans. Winegard has their own data plans using the AT&T network but they are expensive.
If you want to use an AT&T data plan, you need to get an AT&T SIM from Amazon like this one first.

You do need to climb up on the roof, remove the SIM cover (2 small screws), remove the Winegard SIM and install the new AT&T SIM. After you install the new AT&T SIM card you will log into the Winegard ConnecT 2.0 Admin page and get the IMEI and ICCID numbers.
Then when you have the information, go to this website, enter the IMEI and ICCID information and pick your plan:

If you want to use Verizon, it is basically the same process. You need to purchase a Verizon SIM Card and install it and go through the same process with Verizon.
Here is what trips most people up. You cannot use the SIM that comes with the unit to access AT&T or Verizon Data Plans. It will only work with a Winegard Data Plan, which is typically more expensive.
