# Connect devices

Choose one of the below device types to continue setting up your IoT solution.

## Sim card

You can request KPN M2M sim cards at <https://portal.kpnthings.com>. Register for free and find the link in the *M2M is now available* notification to order your SIM cards.

Continue configuring your [SIM cards](https://docs.kpnthings.com/kpn-things/kpn-things-user-guide/getting-started/connect-devices/sim-cards).&#x20;

## Device Simulator Web app

We recommend starting with connecting the KPN Things device simulator app. You can use this app to simulate a device and send messages whenever your want.

Continue with the [Device Simulator Web app](#device-simulator-web-app).

## Supported devices & KPN devices

KPN Things supports commonly used IoT devices out of the box. If you want to get started with one of these devices, continue with [Supported devices & KPN devices](#supported-devices-and-kpn-devices).

### **Developer devices** <a href="#developer-devices" id="developer-devices"></a>

Start experimenting and discover the wide range of possibilities with these developer devices.​
