I've been using the WE826 with stock antennas for about a year and can reach 10-30Mb download speeds. The router reports 96% signal strength but I was wondering if directional antennas would provide a better signal and faster network speeds? I've got multiple towers within a 5 mile radius, though I ...

Hello and Happy Easter.. I am preparing to purchase and install some directional antennas and trying to determine which direction my serving cell is in. Below is the info from the router - but when I look up the 96353 eNB on CellMapper, it centers me at a random location a bit south of me, but there...

$1000, wow.. Where did you find pricing info?

Interested to hear about your experience with the antennas once you get things set up.. I get great decent signal according to my phone's signal indicator, but on average seeing 20-30Mb downloads, I feel like I could get that higher with a better setup. Band 13 here, and no CA from what I can tell.

Will do that, thank you as always Jim.

Not OP, but going through the same thing right now. Just activated my PagePlus SIM, and the results are not good. I activated the SIM using my iPhone's IMEI and immediately noticed the download speeds are significantly slower. Seems like a straight up throttle to me. Upload is actually fairly decent...

Also looking for T-Mobile B71 support. Looks like the EM9190 will support it, but I don't think it's available yet.

Also interested to know this. I've been using a Verizon "Unlimited" SIM purchased on eBay for about a year with great speeds and a soft 750GB/month data cap. Was paying $65/month. Just got notice last month this plan was being discontinued, so in search of a replacement.. I just activated ...

Finally got around to trying the modem firmware update this morning, but I keep getting error 0x0, and it doesn't appear the modem is even being detected by Windows 10 - I don't even see it listed anywhere in device manager.. I've tried with the USB adapter, and also using the laptop's mini PCI-e sl...

How are your speeds with that SIM and plan? I've currently got a supposed "grandfathered unlimited" SIM that I picked up on eBay. I haven't noticed any throttling or deprioritization in the several months I've had it. I'm paying $65 a month which is not bad, but $20 would be even better!

WOW, I didn't realize you authorized that guide when I posted the link. Thank you so much for your contributions and advice here. I'll post an update in a few days after I get a M.2/USB adapter and have a better idea how things are with the modem firmware update. Any thoughts/suggestions on possibly...

Ok, I'll have to order a USB to M.2 adapter but will give it a try. Is this a good guide to follow? [url]http://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?t=78[/url] Also, just curious - when you said I'm only receiving band 13 at 10mHz, what should I expect to see? A 20mHz band, multiple 10mHz bands with CA, ...

Thank you all for your input.. Below are the results of the AT commands. While I logged in to and navigating the router's Web UI, it happened to disconnect on me, and it seemed like the entire router froze up. After attempting to refresh the page a few times, everything came back to life, and the in...

I'm using an EM7565 modem, and still getting disconnected with a 5A power supply. It seems my signal strength is good, though I am using the included stock antennas. Do we still think this is a power issue or perhaps something with the firmware or configuration? Network : LTE CSQ : 28 Signal Strengt...

Just had another thought after reading the other thread about power consumption - are you using the included 1.5A power adapter? I've heard others say that may not provide sufficient power, maybe that is causing our issues. I have a 5A supply lying around that I'm going to try and see if that fixes ...

Experiencing the same but with a Verizon SIM. I work all day from home and have dropped several VoIP calls per day. After 30 seconds or so, it will reconnect. I checked the modem logs in the Rooter web interface but there is no mention of a disconnect. It seems to have just started a week or 2 ago, ...
