Which R-sim can I use? - GSM-Forum

tomro99 · 07-22-2014, 00:08

Hello everyone. I am in the United States. I have an iphone 5s locked on at&t (7.0.6). Next month, I plan on traveling to Mexico for vacation. I see there are a few types of R-sims available. Which one would be best for me? Also, how fast will the internet be if I buy an R-sim? 2g,3g,4g? Thanks in advance.

Do not update past 7.0.6 and buy the R-SIM 9 PRO.

Thank you ep9716! Much appreciated.

What is the procedure for the r-sim 9 pro? Do I need a patch to make it work on 3g/4g? How can I test it out to see if it worked? Thanks.

NEED AIR2 OR MINI2 if you update to ios7,1

Thanks miliky! Do I need a patch to make it work or will it be plug and play to have 4g speed?

Also, what about the r-sim mini+ ?

Just stick to what works best...Also LTE is very limited here in Mexico, don't even worry about it. The LTE speeds here (Mexico) are what you get back in the US as 3G anyway.

Edge and 3G will work fine on your 5S 7.0.6, just don't update past that.

For 5S 7.0-7.0.6, use TMobile 39.01a SIM on eBay. You can buy stock SIM for $5.50 or cut nano SIM for $7 from mustang-us.
