Mine works great now Ive put the sim card in the right way round. Also a 1/4 wave ground plane antenna helps 83mm. great video. I would also recommend the AT command tester for Simcom modules GUI, for £10 its saved me hours.

My device "was not working" and I saw various troubleshooting videos and read various forums but it was untill yours that I could finally fix it or let's say, make it work... It was basically the PSU I was using it didn't have enough mA (2A) as indicated. I was using some LIPO batteries that seems don't have enough punch. So I solved it by having the correct PSU regarding Amps. Thanks for your supprt

Thanks a bunch for the simplified tutorial. Good work. Mine was not working due to power. I was using a ICR18650 2200mAH battery. For some reason It was unable to deliver 2Amps. Then I switched to 9V-2A auto-ID adapter. Now it is working somehow. (surprisingly no overvoltage warning). I have to check the voltage today( forgot the multimeter at office).

By God's grace mine worked, the set-up I had though was using two 18650 batteries in series-so total voltage was around 7.4V, and used a buck converter stepping down the voltage to around 4V and connecting the output of the buck converter, directly towards the SIM800L Mini GSM module, I made sure that the wires I used was as short as I can enable and used AWG24 solid core copper wires, I did not use any capacitors, and everything worked fined, I even used 5G capable SIM card and it worked well with no problems; hopefully those working on this had theirs working, God Bless

thank you so much. you're a life saver. I didn't connect the gnd of my power source to the GND of arduino earlier.

Hello milliohm, thank you for your great videos, i have a question regarding the sim800L: i have around 20 sim cards for which i have an online platform to see any incoming and outgoing sms, so i dont need a phone for every single one of them, but to actually have the sims running, ofcourse i need power and an antenna. would it be possible to hook up loads of SIM800L together with the antenna and then have them running while i can mange all traffic over the online tool? How can i power many SIM800L at once without an arduino, only power supply

Do i need more than 2A for power supply when I have other hardware parts connected to same power supply with sim800L GSM module?

Hi, this was an informative video. I have found that my gsm responds "SIM WRONG" when i give command "AT+CPIN?" But its the same sim that was working earlier . Sometimes it starts working, sometimes it doesn't. Also, the my area has many 2g networks but when i give the commant AT+COPS? ..its returns 0

I wasted one hour cause the second antenna (for the ufl connector) doesnt work. I got zero signal quality. I changed to the small helical antenna and now it works. Is it possible that the ufl connecter have to connect somewhere at the gsm shield? Or should both PINS (ufl connector and the pin for the helical antenna) ready to use? Thank u alot!

Hi, when I use AT+CSQ the module return 0.0 ..what do you think the problem Is? Every previous steps works fine,

Dear, i have tried everything like putting 3.7v lithium batter or put buck converter to the SIM800L, but never it got any network. however the sim info can get from AT command and CPIN is ready/ only CREG AND CSQ shows 0.. pls help me Is there any chance that I bought an faulty SIM module?? pls tell how to check. The SIM can run fine in any 2g mobile in the home

My module doesn't blink at all. I have a 5V 30A PSU connected to the LM2596 buck converter as you did. I was wondering if it's possible to only connect the VCC and GND pin to the SIM800L from here, just to see if the LED will start blinking. In other words: are the TX and RX pins required to make the LED blink? I want to rule out any problems with the Arduino. I think my SIM800L is defective.
