SORACOM IoT SIMs that are using the planX1 Subscription Container in Japan are now able to connect to the SoftBank network, in addition to KDDI. The extended coverage is available to all planX1 subscriptions, with no need to change any SIM settings in the User Console.

While IoT SIMs with planX1 are now able to connect to SoftBank, some devices may remain connected to KDDI based on their existing configuration. If you prefer to connect to SoftBank, check that your device is compatible with the SoftBank network, and refer to your device's user manual for instructions on how to change the network configuration settings.

Please note that the planX1 subscription container and data usage fees remain the same regardless of which network you use.

For more information, please refer to the Subscription Containers documentation.
