I’ve been learning (still feel very newbie-like) by taking the blinky example and putting in some LTE connectivity from the tracker sample as well as the http_get samples. It seems to work - The first 7 requests get made and the board sleeps for the defined time. However, completely consistently, on the 8th request, I can no longer get information from the modem, and getaddr fails. I try to catch this and deinit and init the modem, but it just stalls.

Any clues on what I’m doing wrong? I have a feeling it might be more to do with the code than the modem, since it doesnt seem to matter what I set the sleep time to (it still fails at loop 8). However, I have no clue how to debug this on the device?
