Wireless Joint

I've heard from a lot of people with problems with the Qualcomm version of that router. Usually wifi and reboots related. The mediatek version seems to work pretty well. The wireless haven mods their mediatek version and call it the NEXPRO. Make sure you turn off the auto apn of the modem (at+qmbncf...

If you need any help with it, post here in the forum and/or shoot me a message anytime.

Set your APN to ipv4 only.. it's a setting under modem->connection profile. If needed, disable the modems ability to auto load apn's via at command.

For local, that's under network->interfaces->lan
And network-> dhcp i think.

Any particular reason to disable ipv6?

Might need a modem firmware update. Tmobile has changed a lot in the last year.

I agree on wishing something like this was out already. The draw to it is the fact that it does zero routing, and just the one job. Modem comms. It's interfaced in a non-complex way, AND it's not a teeny little RF nightmare of a design. It's likely that since it's being sold first from a store that ...

Nope, it's not running any routing jobs.

Think of it as just a modem, passing everything off to the host it's plugged into. If the 'host' is a single end user device it handles just it directly.

Already have one I'm involved in the project.

Check the tutorials/support page later tonight or tomorrow. They have a Quick start guide and Instruction docs. They just haven't been posted. They are busting to get new info out, it's a legit presale.

The LBR20 is a good little unit for the price. The internal pcb has U.FL connectors if you want to access all 4 ports, otherwise 2 are built into the pcb, the other 2 are sticker antennas on the front of the case (inside of course). You could opt for an upgradable build with any modem you want (http...

Ive placed the IG in a 4x4 MIMO antenna. Heat aspirates through the antenna case itself. Though the case is plastic, it still operates to cool the inside. This is only a problem in direct sunlight combined with prolonged 100+ degree weather. I've run other high category modems inside antennas and en...

It's case is too tall to fit inside the antenna enclosure. A new wider band coverage design is in the works for a drop in solution, but it may be a few months off at minimum. Ping improvements are location specific as far as experiences, but here is an early user post on facebook: IG-Pings-Facebook-...

Navigate to the webUI menu: Modem->Network Status and show us a screenshot.

If you don't see that, upload a screenshot of the web UI and I can help you navigate it.

Which cellular module?

There is much generalization that unfortunately is common. The RM520N-GL is more capable than the others, as far as a gateway modem function is concerned. How it is used in the host system it is in will determine how it compares in performance to other systems. If you had a Cudy LT18 and swapped the...

my Sierra Wireless EM9191 will not connect to my pc. The usb dongle adapter works well with Quectel. The adapter green light turns on with Ouectel but no with the EM9191. Do I need a special dongle? Yes. The Sierra Wireless has a different hardware design that other cellular modems requiring voltag...

The newer builds require you to delete the IPV6 prefix on the Network->Interfaces global options/settings tab at the top of the page. Delete the setting there, leave blank, and reboot.

You'll need a newer build to get the band locking UI

So it is connecting to the internet? You're just not getting an IPV6 address? This is common, I've seen it from one connection to the next, and even one system to the next. It is odd. Run the AT command AT+CGDCONT? to see if the IPV stack is being presented as dual stack or IP only. The rest is up t...

Yes. I've been with Calyx for years, and I test their SIMs in everything I can touch, lol.

I just upgraded to the new Quanta 5G hotspot too. New SIM and all.

You have to set the IMEI, then set the carrier profile to generic, then reboot, then set the APN to fast.t-mobile.com, then reboot.
IMEI of Calyx SIMs are locked to that of the original device.

Type REPAIR in the main menu for a helpful hidden tool.

Yep, It can lock to one or the other. You'll be able to choose the one you like, and by default keep from the one you don't like. It is not like the 4G tower locking though, where you can list off a bunch of preferred bands on multiple towers. The 5G tower locks are one band, one tower. This will be...

Which modem version of the 4500 do you have?

SIM4, SIM7, or SIM8?

You make Tmo think you're using the phone. No hotspot. You can use prepaid if you want. Settings trickery. It's against ToS, but if you don't want to pay out the kazoo for data, it's the game we play for now.

@hazard78

I created a new thread here for public talk on ideas.

I'll make a custom firmware update for you. It has to be something either related to the firmware acting a fool, or somehow the power output on the usb port just isn't kicking like it should. Nothing in the logs is jumping out at me, except the Connection logging. It's got the modem coming and going...

You're looking for the hardware design guide, reference RF ports. Other than that a general idea of what it does during operation.
I'll be at my office pc in about two hours. I'll link and explain what I think when I get there.

I've got some issues with my build system. Should have fixed and done today.

The modem uses the main and div ports for all general LTE transmissions. It only uses the two mimo ports for mid and high band frequencies (MHB: 1452–2690 MHz), and only under load, AND only on towers that support 4x4 MIMO engagement. The Main and Div will support all frequencies (~600-6000 MHz)

Generally all 4x4 antennas use four identical elements placed in different rotated positions.

Took forever to fix my machine, but here is the first I could get done: https://thewirelesshaven.com/help-page-nexs2go/

NOTE: It is 100% untested. You can always recover, but I have to say I haven't tested it and will not be able to for about a week or so. Much going on right now.

Prob be best to flash the new ones with the same firmware image on the old one. Or you may need to ensure the settings are the same between them. The newer firmware shouldn't have nay new settings, just updated protocols and potential bug fixes. I would check: AT+QCFG="NWSCANMODE" AT+QMBNC...

The modem settings save automatically. You can make sure by running AT+QPRTPARA=1

You only need to run that once though, never needed again. IT just says, 'Hey make sure to always save settings to backup memeoy' .. basically.

Ive placed the IG in a 4x4 MIMO antenna. If I may ask in my very first post on this forum, Which one did you use? Do you happen to have a link? Sure! This one: https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/antennas/outdoor/outdoor-cellular/mimo-directional-panel/600-3800mhz-cellular-8dbi-directional-4x4-mimo-a...

It's a 4x4 MIMO 600-6000MHz outdoor directional panel antenna with space inside and hardware to simply drop the InvisaGig inside with a PoE splitter (will be included and a poe injector). The second pic is of the clearance inside with the InvisaGig loosely placed. There is a plate there to bolt it d...

@MrMark
like this?

Also remember static IP = no SA 5G.

Antenna : Modem
1: 0
2: 3
3: 1
4: 2

Working to be the first professional solution with it. It hasn't been fcc approved yet though, so that's a first barrier.

yep!

Already have x65 in tests and is pretty good so far.

You can get higher on 4G, it all depends on the towers and what speeds the provided bands are capable of on those towers. Your modem is capable of aggregating many LTE bands. Using a single 5G stand alone band, and aggregating a single 5G band with LTE bands. Th cell towers you have access to, on th...

No go on that. I responded on your other post.

Excellent record of your journey. Thank you for posting these details.

@APMI23

Did you mean to quote the whole post then not put anything of your own?

Correct. It's still in engineering samples stage. No FCC approval yet. It should be fine, and seems to work well, just not technically done "cooking" yet.

Does anyone have any information for cracking into the Inseego M2000 5G Hotspot?

I want to poke around in the file system.

I usually revert to using the usb ttyl / UART serial pins to see what's happening in the bootup phase. You will want to use the 16M firmware images, very unlikely you have a 32M version, and even then the 16M version will work.

https://amzn.to/3tFWrXA

Give us more details if you would. Not everyone will read the kernel log file unfortunately, though I do. :) What I see is a ton of dhcp server errors and a software watchdog (ping tests) resetting the modem. I would remove all the extra features (base factory defaults) and setup one new thing at a ...

Might need a reflash and factory reset, maybe update in firmware, but it might just be failing .. maybe.

Hard to say. It's not really jumping out at me.

Took longer to introduce than wanted, but....

Have you also replaced the power supply with a new one that has at least 2.5A of supply?

If you haven't seen it yet, AgentTekk released a new InvisaGig update video.

Understood. You want to self build, support, and warrant. Pretty much what the cost of the InvisaGig is.

They have rj45 modem sleds on alibaba that you drop your own 5G modem into, or buy theirs, and use AT commands or opensource code to give it a web interface for sending at commands.

Hello I'm new here. I recently switched to t-mobile and now I have 2 extra unlimited data sim cards because of the plan I got. So I got the bright idea to put one in a hotspot, so I bought a netgear m6 pro mr6550-pas. After the fact I learned I either need a hotspot data sim OR from what I've read ...

How exactly do you have it installed? If its anywhere close to a wall (behind it) and if there is limited clearing in front, this may be your issue. Also, if you are running the cables, and installing the antenna itself, anywhere near A/C electrical wires of any time or near a transformer, air fan, ...
