About a month after I fixed my “SIM PIN2” error on the LTE card installed inside my new laptop, I started experiencing the following error when attempting to connect:

“Can’t connect to this network. Enter an apn and try again.”

If you have this problem or are generally looking how to override a Windows 10 default driver, I may be able to help.

I recently installed a Sierra Wireless EM7455 LTE card inside a new laptop, and directly after inserting the new SIM card, Windows 10 displayed “No Service” before eventually showing an error about a locked SIM card. It turns out the problem had nothing to do with the SIM card.
