It works with Cricket SIM card besides AT&T one.

I put a Project Fi Data Only SIM into my Urbane 2 and it did automatically change the APN to Project Fi. Data works!

Unfortunately there is not yet an official way to enter APNs manually in Android Wear 2.0. So this is nothing LG specific - the same is for other smartwatches like the Huawei Watch 2 4G. As the virtual provider's (MVNO) APNs are usually not preconfigured you won't be able to connect. At the moment the only way to circumvent this is by rooting your watch. In my blog post I describe the process: https://michaeltroger.github.io/blog/2017/08/12/add-apn-in-android-wear-2

Thanks for going over that in your blog post. I took the liberty of combining the info from the XDA link and your blog to come up with a series of steps that adds root without modifying /system and I have confirmed that it still receives updates, and keeps the APN. I got the update just today.

See my own post on the previously mentioned XDA thread.
