This is likely the same problem everyone else is having with AT&T right now. All router, many plans. One proposed workaround is using a VPN with a port other than 80 and 443. Also, this likely only affects people that have hit 22GB of usage in the current billing cycle. Good luck to us all! Ken

To follow up on the above-I made progress last night and found that PPC had activated a different SIM than what was in the router. So that is back on track to be on the network and operational. I am still very curious about the TTL settings though, and how those are working out for people? From what...

It's not that simple... That cat6 modem in the mofi isn't capable of 4x4 mimo, so first you'd need a much more expensive modem (cat16 I think is the baseline for 4x4), an adapter to install the modem (newer modems are m.2, not mpci-e), and at that point you might as well sell off the mofi and start ...

Thanks, this was posted a few days ago but I never got the notification. I have since cancelled my MoFi seamlessly, and I am at the beginning stages of building my lab setup. I'll edit the original as needed.

Not a fan of the mofi units... Considering they usually go for $300+ and you can get the same modem and router for closer to $130, I'd probably cancel that and use the savings to add on a mimo (or a pair of single) antenna(s) and the necessary cabling. You don't want your LTE router running on your ...

Great Information.Thanks for sharing.

I'll probably come back for 5G when it's actually in my area and price for modems are more affordable.

The tower determines what bands your phone will latch on. Your phone just lets the tower know it supports B71 but it doesn't mean your phone will connect to it as the tower knows that B2 and B12 are faster than B71 or configured that way and want your phone to connect to those bands instead. You hav...

It seems when I do a lot of uploading especially that it can get to high seventies Celsius to around 90. I believe that’s when video conferencing starts to underperform.

Just a quick update - and thanks for the helpful responses. I bought a simple heat sink from Amazon (as shown by others) and used the 3M tape to stick it simply to the EM7565 modem. I left the WE826 case with the lid opened and pointed a box fan I had at the open box. I have not had the temperature ...

I have tried various TTLs and some custom firewall rules (re: IPv6) that I found in another thread, but neither have worked. Data still works absolutely fine when the phone is not used as a modem. What am I missing? What else should I try? I would try to test it with a free VPN on the phone while t...

After trying out some other flat panels from several sources/vendors, I thought I'd try the parabolic grid 2x MIMO antenna from netsolution.shop (thewirelesshaven.com).

Thanks for the tip. I’ll check under the stickers now. i was checking under the runner feet and they were clear. i’m shocked they would make it that difficult to switch out modems. then again that’s just another reason to get us to buy the other version. time to go tinker with it again!

The most recent mofi firmware (4.2.8) has solved these AT&T port blocking issues for us. Upgraded a week ago and it's not gone down since.

Hello,
Might want to read thru this post.
https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1499

I have one of the cheaper ones with a replacement mimo feedhorn... It still picks up the lower frequencies but with little to no gain. That's fine by me since those bands are slower anyway.

Hello, I HAD, a similar issue, I think, I have a MOFI4500-4GXeLTE-V2 from Ubifi.net with a Wilson Outdoor Directional Panel Antenna. Unlimited ATT plan. I get 5 bars on Bands 2,4,5,12/17 and 30 I have set Advanced Bandlock to bands 2 and 5 Bandlock is set to Auto, (This allows Carrier aggregation). ...

I don't know if this will be of any help to you folks but this is that has worked for me in my area with AT&T for over two years now, obviously your mileage my vary. I am in a VERY sparsely populated area so de-prioritization & "network management policies" generally don't apply ou...

Is it possible to have an Access Point Name that works with all US carriers, an APN that can be effectively carrier agnostic?

Still assembling my first router. Please excuse my goofball rookie questions.

Ok I think I understand it now. Before investing in a 4 port modem and a 4x4 mimo antenna I need to borrow a Galaxy S9, Pixel 3 or phone with the Cat18 modem or similar in it and do a real speedeest at my towers. I have a Router coming tomorrow

Hello,
My tower quite doing Carrier Aggregation after maintenance upgrade. To make up for that decided to try parabolic antenna. So my flat panel 15 dbi antenna is fresh off the tower.
Would sell it for $135 all in.

2 of those should work, but at that price you'd be better off with a parabolic with a mimo feed. You don't want to point at 2 different towers, btw... CA aggregates multiple bands on the same tower, and MIMO depends on having multiple paths to a single tower. No provider is going to bond 2 different...

Some things to report:

Wifi is broken in the RPi4 builders of OpenWRT. There's some patches that fix this issue in the mainstream linux kernel needed to fix this, but they haven't made it over into the OpenWRT version yet. I'm not using wifi, so no worries for me, but I thought I'd pass it along.

Ok, time to update the build thread. I received my Sierra Wireless MC7565. I've been waiting for The Wireless Haven to open to buy their M2. USB3 enclosure, but I went ahead and bought a cheapo M.2 adapter off Amazon figuring I could at least get the modem software updated, which did indeed work fro...

MIMO and CA should improve average latency between you and the tower, even if only by increasing maximum throughput so that you have more available for the overhead. Basically, when your connection is maxed out latency will skyrocket, even on a good hard-line connection. Having a higher speed connec...

These statements were true at least about a week ago. I haven't looked lately. There's no GoldenOrb release for the RPi4. There's no stable OpenWRT release for RPi4. The RPi3 image will NOT run on an RPI4. The RPi 2 image *might* run on a RPi4 in 32 bit mode (I've not confirmed). There is a daily Op...

Thanks, this thread helped me get VIsible running on a GL-X750 with an EP06-A i just swapped in.

I think my Visible nano sim isn't working great with an adapter because some times the mo...

100Mbps on band 71 is not possible in the real world, especially with a CAT-4 modem which doesn't do carrier aggregation. The reason why you're getting much higher speeds on a phone, is because they have higher CAT# modem built in. The general formula to estimate the highest theoretical speed is (ba...

If you started out all good than your issue is unlikely your setup. More likely AT&T determined that you were using Data at such a rate as to be violating their policy. Your MVNO might have a solution if they have a deal with AT&T for how much Data and in what type of device you are using it...

Thanks for the real talk! I am wondering now what modems support 4x4 MIMO -- can't seem to find a vendor for CAT16 or CAT20. Any suggestions?

There's also a Sierra cat20, but it is expensive AF. Then there's the Nighthawk M1 and Mifi 8000 hotspots (cat16), but the 4x4 only works with the internal antennas as they only have 2 external ports.

Awesome thanks so much guys -- I went from 2MB/s down to 40MB/s down after arranging things this way.

Please understand the non-scientific nature of what I am about to say, as I have nothing but an hour's worth of experimentation to back it up: Arrow points down (towards Earth) This appeared to give the most gain (primary and diversity antennas), as reported by the MOFI4500 (stock).

I think by default GO uses both for any APN you enter in the profile so I don't think you need to manually set it.

Have you tried this? https://customer.cradlepoint.com/s/arti ... grade-mode

AT!RMARESET=1
AT!RESET

if AT commands work?

Yes. You can use the S8 to tether. Certain plans will not allow hotspot so you have to make sure it at least allows hotspot so you could set the TTL to bypass it. If hotspot is not allowed, ie USB tethering is grayed out/disabled on your phone when sim is inserted, you might need to root the phone a...

I am a newbie here and after reading all the posts and yes as others have said information overload!

The 600Kbps is usually a sign that your data is being detected as hotspot data. If you put your Verizon's sim back into the phone and it doesn't throttle to 600Kbps then you know it is caused by hotspot detection.

That's a slick way to word it and dropping those hints

Maybe some of the users will figure it out. Anyway, if you don't care about higher latency. You could always give Visible with party pay ($25) a try since you are talking about Verizon. It's a hit or miss but no hard cap.
