Firstly, install your WWAN card/dongle

Install the appropriate drivers

Make sure your APN is correct, DuckDuckGo is your friend

And finally, to SMS, download this -> http://support.black-it.eu/en/products/mobile%20broadband%20sms%20toolkit/index.htm

@will13am I hear ya!  I use a combination of MS Teams and Slack for work IM, and a cocktail of WhatsApp, Skype (consumer, not Skype for Business), Facbeook Messenger, and good old fashioned texting for personal IM. It's a bit of a pain, but not the end of the world.

I also confirmed that an eSIM, or whatever tech I have in here, is supported by PM!

@RoXx0rBoT , I simply use messages for android on my windows PC.  It directly syncs with the messages app on my phone.  There is nothing to download, 100% safe.
