Having trouble activating your phone's data on Boost AT&T? I did too until I put this APN in my phone(YMMV):
Name: AT&T
APN: ERESELLER
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: None
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri,fota
APN protocol IPv4/IPv6

AT&T Network status:
5G+: MmWave which is AT&T's lightning fast 5G network, is live and available in select cities and in select areas.(5G Phone/5G Sim required)
5G: Also known as LTE+NR NSA, this tech is when a carrier pairs LTE and 5G Non Stand alone tech together to keep speeds high when MmWave is not available. 5G Standalone(SA) does not need LTE to work. (5G Phone/5G Sim required)
5Ge/4G LTE: Whats the difference between 5Ge and 4G LTE? not much really other than 5Ge means your area may have been upgraded with newer tech/higher speeds on LTE via Carrier Aggregation(CA).
4G HSPA: This network is being shutdown, will no longer be available starting August 1st, 2022.
3G HSDPA/HSUPA: This network is being shutdown, will no longer be available starting August 1st, 2022.
2G/GPRS/GSM: This network is shut down and no longer exists.
Have a phone that is no longer AT&T Compliant? Take it to T-Mobile or ask Boost and see if you can get a "Boost T-Mobile sim".

I was nervous my son unlocked iphone 2020 wouldn't work with boost after reading all the comments in previous posts. https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/fp/656821
I also tried to verify his phone would work on the boost mobile site and it was saying that "it may be locked to another carrier"
I was able to get it to work with no issues!
I guess I got lucky and if I read all the comments before I bought this plan I would not have bought it in fear that my son phone wouldn't work in boost mobile.

This is a GSM plan runs on AT&T so any unlocked GSM phone should work.

On the Boost AT&T plan they do activate it as it ships.
Also to Note: Boost Mobile's AT&T deal allows them to have the AT&T 310-410 network which is important as there was an AT&T OTA server update that the server now looks for your AT&T banded phone to be on the 310-410 network to continue to receive updates.
So if you have a AT&T branded phone, pop this Boost AT&T sim into it and as long as it activates successfully wait for 2 minutes after startup and then check for a OTA update and if there is one it will start downloading.
Any AT&T Branded phone on Cricket will no longer receive updates due to Cricket being 310-170.
My experience: Grabbed a Branded Moto G Play from AT&T prepaid, put in a Boost AT&T sim, did 2 reboots and then checked for a software update, BAM! OTA's started downloading again.
06-21-2022: No Joy here. Not sure about what game StackSocial or Boost is playing with me - but I did not receive a SIM to activate my phone. Got a 9x7x5 sized box with plastic air pillows; nothing more related to the deal I purchased. Still waiting on a response by email (StackSocials support).
