    Woops, yes, the example has changed since then.  Sorry about that.

    And, yes, you’re definitely not alone.  I think issues with LTE connections are the top forum topic here.  The LTE XBee3’s are so much trouble.  I wish I could find something better.

    From your pictures, your hardware connections look right.  🙂

    As you’ve read, the first connection can take near forever.  In the last update I simplified the clock sync, but that removed the control over how long to wait.

    I put up a new program for you to try to see if you can get a connection:  https://github.com/EnviroDIY/ModularSensors/blob/master/tools/LTExBee_FirstConnection/LTExBee_FirstConnection.ino  It will set up the XBee, the carrier profile, the APN and then just sit and wait forever for a connection.
