    eSIM + VPN is a disastrous combination

    VPN issue has persisted for years that the connection would drop when network environment changes or when CPU usage is high (when I'm updating apps). Reconnecting takes 3-4 minutes (all local VPNs that filter DNS, no traffic is routed to a remote server, so it's not an internet issue). Now...

    Spoke to the executive office of T-Mobile and indeed they do NOT support dual esim on their platform. If you want to run two sims, you need a physical sim for one carrier and the use of the esim for the second carrier. Hours and hours on the phone to finally be told you can’t do it with...
