Re: Anyone having connection issues recently on AT&T?

I’m using a $50/m Autopay AT&T plan on a x750 spitz running GoldenOrb. Signal strength is around 40% and stays on B4 most of the day and does CA with B66 or B12 when I’m assuming the tower is congested. I’ll get disconnected normally once a day or less per my connection log and I have connectio...

Re: New ZBT WG1608 5G-ready router + GoldenOrb firmware

And it works with ps4? My only problem is connect to PlayStation network. Most mobile carriers provide a "private IP" address instead of a public one which is required for some gaming consoles. Check out the posts below for some possible solutions: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hard...

Re: WG1608 ping wont work, but internet is fine

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I am quite experienced with most networking stuff but GoldenOrb is a bit new to me. I would try the following. 1.

Re: Netgear M1

Your Device that you are sharing the data to, needs to have TTL (Time to Live) Set to something non-standard, like 65.

Re: WiFiX NEXR5GO dual modem setup works

Didneywhorl wrote: Fri Feb 05, 2021 4:58 pm Meaning 2 modems each using half of the 4x4 MIMO antenna?

Might work. Might present noise. Not really sure. I should try sometime.

It would probably work, but you would have to play around with the antennas "pairs" to see which combination works best on two 2xMIMO modems.

Re: LTE Provider options for Home Internet

Would IMEI be the reason when we are talking about tethering the phone? Wouldn't think so. Every once in awhile it does work and gets past the 5 Mbps. Think there is some way they know when you select USB tether on the phone must be flagging them somehow. Cause even after disconnecting it from rout...

You're misunderstanding what problem I'm solving with EasyTether. It's not general speed, video throttling or otherwise. I'm tethering to a tablet using USB on the AT&T $20 tablet plan. That plan has a hard throttle on all hotspot traffic to 128 kbps after 10 GB. It didn't do this until a coupl...

Re: T-Mobile Hotspot Masking

Currently pretty much all phone plans have some kind of hotspot limit. If you don't want to get a full blown router to bypass the limit, you could go with an inexpensive GL-Inet MT300N mini travel router smaller than a pack of cigarettes. https://www.amazon.com/GL-iNET-GL-MT300N-V2-Repeater-300Mbps-...

Re: MC7455 / EM7565 vs. Quectel EP06 IMEI Change

Qualcomm devices have a much more secure NVRAM than MTK based ones, so I doubt that there's any simple AT command to repair it in case it gets wiped out. Most likely there's a hidden engineering mode which requires a challenge/response mechanism. Your best option at this time is to go with a Quectel...

Re: Visible Wireless Sim work??

Even if you didn't have the right TTL should still get the 5 down cap. Getting .75 is some other issue would think. 0.75Mbps sounds like a throttled speed, which could be due to several reasons. 1. Lack of signal (simple as that) 2. Wrong TTL which used up all the high speed hotspot data, and now r...
