New error "^M^M" when trying to dial pppd call gprs

Issue: When I execute sudo call gprs, I receive a pretty fast ERROR return. Here’s the output:

Details: You can see my gprs config above. Verizon, North America. Wasn’t having this issue until I activated the SIM with the carrier. Before that, I just wasn’t pulling an address. Now, I receive this error.

Haven’t ever seen this

before. Any suggestions?

Thanks for all your help.

It seems like I’m getting ERROR on a lot of AT+ commands. I feel like the modem hasn’t closed down it’s last connection or something. What commands could I send it to zero in on this?

I fixed it. I had the SIM card in backwards LOL
