Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

If you have extra cash to burn, might as well upgrade to the latest 5G modems... (warning, prices are insane!)

Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

Just a random update in case its useful to anyone. I've been successfully running the WE826-T2 with a EM06-A on Sprint for a couple weeks now. Its been great and stable. I get 25-30 Mbps down and 2-4 Mbps up on B25, sometimes higher but that is pretty average. I live in a fairly treed area, I think ...

Re: Coolpad Surf - CP331A

@shoulin333 yeah I popped mine open as well and was looking at those. Curious to know if the antennas work out for you. I wish there was a way to see what Band you are connected on. If you want more internal pictures and pictures without the shields covering everything up, you can check out: https:/...

Re: Quectel - Programming Carrier Bands and Groups of Bands

giant22000 wrote: Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:11 pm Spreadsheet is much appreciated. One problem I'm having is that every time I change any the band values the output of the band group = #N/A. Any ideas?
I had that problem as well. But then I put in google drive opened it with google sheets. worked just fine then.

Re: PagePlus - mc7455 possible ?

one possibility with verizon (pageplus) is you could activate your sim first on a verizon branded/whitelisted phone and then switch the sim to your router. I've done this with phones and it worked fine, never tried it on a router but I assume it would be the same.

Re: Calyx Connection keeps degistering

Did you happen to notice if it made a difference what band you were connected to? I was noticing on b41 I had a fine signal but it would frequently disconnect. but on b25 I can go weeks without a disconnect. Just curious if you noticed anything like that.

Re: Starlink now available to order

Unfortunately for me, it is likely to be a better option. Yeah that's the thing. For a lot of people it is actually a really good option. I know plenty of people have been getting essentially scammed by dsl and satellite internet that provides maybe 1Mbps-3Mbps down and still end up paying $60-$90 ...

Re: Lost Towers?

I have had the sprint tower near me go down for 4-5days. For the first couple days they couldn't get the key to the gate that let them onto private property and then it took a few days to fix the problem. Anyway when I loose reception like that I just call my provider and see they have any issues wi...

Re: Mobile Citizen sim card in a WG1608 doesn't work

The WG1608 is just a router correct? what modem are you using in it? When you say: The sim card works fine in the Coolpad Surf it came in, but the WG1608 with the latest firmware doesn't detect it at all. Are you saying that the router doesn't detect the sim card at all? Or some other connection iss...

Re: NEXQ6GO-M Setup On Sprint

Is the router seeing the sim card? That would rule out any question about where the sim is inserted. If you see sim information on the Modem > Network Status page then you are good.

Do you have the modem in LTE/4g mode only? you can do that with:

Code: Select all

AT+QCFG="NWSCANMODE",3,1

Re: Putting Calyx SIM in different hotspot

Welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, so far as I've seen if there is any Sprint tower signal at all, or bands, the network will only allow you to use them. The Tmobile bands are available, but it seems to prefer the Sprint stuff. You MIGHT get to use the Tmobile only, but I've not seen anyone say t...

Re: Calyx Institute removing Sprint sims and getting no internet access using T-Mobile sims

Hi all, Does anyone have input on setting up T-Mobile sims in a Peplink device? Settings would be for a non-5g plan and using the fast-t-mobile.com apn. I did not see options to change settings for IPV4 vs IPV6 via the web admin page but curious if there are other settings to try. Appreciate any in...

Re: T-Mobile CellSpot -non tmobile device connect

I'm not understanding your question I think. Do you want the other non-t-mobile devices to be able to get a wifi connection and use data through a t-mobile hotspot connected to the CellSpot? Or do you actually want a, just for example, AT&T device to be able to connect to T-mobile cell tower (th...

Re: connectall new sim, no longer works in wg1608

What APN did you set? The old sprint APN wont work any more. Needs to be B2B.t-mobile.com or fast.t-mobile.com.

In my experience so so far with the new t-mobile sims is that you need to match modem identities.

Re: Mobile Citizen / Calyx Internet Service Change 5G Upgrade Required

I've had zero issues with the new t-mobile SIMs in four custom devices (not all mine, I help out neighbors). They are all using quectel modems. I put the new sim in the hotspot that was sent with the sim and let it activate, then with then with the quectel modems I matched device identities, set APN...

Re: connectall new sim, no longer works in wg1608

I tried B2B.t-mobile.com and fast.t-mobile.com, save & apply, reboot, but sadly it still left me with the modem screen reporting "Failed to Connect : Retrying" I also ensured I set the band locking to use all bands. I was initially using the isdn.sprint.com (possibly mispelled it) and...

No problem, glad to help if I can.

Ok thanks! I'll give that a whirl.

Also thanks mods for putting my post in the correct spot, I didn't know what the issue was so I didn't know where to put it.

Re: Disable IPv6 - goldenorb/openwrt

Any particular reason to disable ipv6? Honestly mostly for troubleshooting. I'm having a weird interment issue where webpages aren't loading. Refreshing, sometimes multiple times, fixes it. but it effects services to, like discord, xmpp, ect. because they keep losing connection. At first I thought ...
