Help Can't access mobile data

My MXPE for some reason refuses to recognize my Tracfone data connection. I can send and receive calls and sms messages, but no data or mms. This happens on both the stock rom and LineageOS. It worked fine with my T-mobile SIM before I switched to Tracfone. Any ideas?

I tried that already, no difference.

Well... it is most likely APN related, either the information in the links isn't correct, or your SIM isn't setup correctly on the Tracfone end. Everywhere you look there are different APN settings, they seem very SIM dependent. I assume you tried this: https://www.tracfone.com/apn

I had Net10 for a while (essentially the same service, Topp Telecom), never could get mms working no matter what I did, even with a new SIM. after 2 months they finally said my phone wasn't compatible since it wasn't a branded device. Switched to Cricket (and subsequently GoPhone and now H2O) and have had zero issues with any of them.
 
Tracfone's APN site says: "This device does not require an update to its Access Point Name (APN) settings." Still not working. Ugh. Might be time to call customer support.
