Wireless Joint

The latencies for the 3 WAN sources in my setup range from 35 to 60 ms individually (2 LTE and Starlink) Combined it is around 50 or so. Tremendous improvement in bandwidth. Pretty close to 100% efficient aggregation. Works surprisingly well.

I decided to switch all routing functions over to my OMR device. So far, so good. My T-Mo Home WAN is currently setup like this: Sierra Modem in USB sled to GL router to OMR Eth3. I'd like to eliminate the router middleman and run the USB sled directly into the OMR device (Qotom NUC) into one of it'...

Thanks mtl26637! I thought about going direct from the streaming device to OMR. Being that the OMR device has only 4 ports (1 LAN, 3 WAN). "bandwidth greed" set in and I didn't want to sacrifice a port and hoped for another simple solution. I'll be doing what you did - switch routing over ...

Thanks Prideauxx! Any and all suggestions are certainly welcome and appreciated. I think I'm understanding what you're saying. The way I'm set up now, if I set bypass to my router IP, all traffic is bypassed since all traffic goes through my Asus router. That works but I'm trying to be as you say - ...

Yes, I've forwarded the ports from VPS to OMR to Asus to device. They're all working at this point. I'll probably jump into this tomorrow as I have an important Zoom call later and I don't need to mess up my internet right now. I'll likely be back here with questions and problems begging for advice :)

I thought about that as sort of a last resort. As I have many port-forwards, other routing/firewall configurations plus an Asus mesh system that I would need to accommodate. I've resisted up to now as I'm familiar with the Asus (w/Asuswrt-Merlin OS) and have not been too befuddled by it's somewhat s...

Lol, yeah. Started with 1.5 DSL for 15 years. Then I got completely fed up and discovered LTE possibilities and ran with that for 8 months or so. Then, within a recent 2 week time period, I became eligible for T-Mo Home and Starlink Beta. When it rains, it pours I guess. I have speeds approaching 30...

Hello again. Bonding has been working perfectly for a while now but I'm having issues getting OMR bypass working. I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong and not understanding routing functions thoroughly. Here's a screenshot of my current status: OMR cap.png I'm trying to get my streaming device ...

Since I don't have a modem capable of 4x4 yet, I'll experiment with a 2x2 modem
Thanks

Well that's a bummer. I might take it apart then. See if there's anything that can be done. Thanks Viper!

Hi - I purchased a 4x4 MIMO antenna this summer in anticipation of getting a 5G modem with 4x4 MIMO capabilities. Plans have changed. Considering that all 3 carrier towers are close to each other and aligned very closely from my location, I'd like to use this 4x4 antenna with 2 different 2x2 modems ...

Thank you Yipzy!

I've integrated the OpenMPTCP router(OMR)device into my network and have an anomaly. I set up the OMR as a gateway to my existing router (Asus) as I want to keep the routing/NAT functions on my Asus - OMR LAN port to Asus WAN port -I disabled DHCP on the OMR by selecting the "Ignore interface&q...

Thank you.
I'll see what I can do with that

This is fantastic! Thank you! I got it going despite some head scratching moments-- I have a static IP on one WAN line (required setting OpenMPTCP to DHCP on that interface) and the physical ports on the Qotom device don't align with the logical ports in the software. It works great now but before I...

Bill-Thank you!! I'll give that a look

Good info Bill. Thanks! From the research I've done, and considering the equipment/devices I have, it looks like VPN is the route I need to go. This particular setup is at my "cabin in the woods". I can disable the VPN when we're there and then enable it when we leave. Then I don't have to...

I recently switched to the AT&T I-pad solution to replace my DSL. I am using a Nighthawk M1 (unlocked MR100-100NAS version) as a modem which is hardwired to an Asus router with Merlin firmware. The modem is in "IP Passthrough" mode, DHCP server off and wireless off. This setup works we...
