What are you pinging? Did your IP address change? Did you associate with a different tower? Did you traceroute to the the server you're pinging? Did the route change?

The service is truly unlimited. It's something Sprint had to set-up for non-profits when they acquired some spectrum, if I remember correctly. Sounds like you need to pester support...

You may want to look at the Calyx Institute Hotspot option. They're a non-profit focused on internet privacy (I run their CalyxOS on my phone) and they have membership plans that include a hotspot with truly unlimited data, the "catch" being that it's on sprint. So it's not going to replac...

Devices send their IMEI when registering to the network. On some you can "repair" the IMEI, on others you can't. The thing I wanted to mention to you is that Verizon is very picky (to use a polite word) about the devices. I believe it depends on the MVNO, but for most you have to have a &q...

Have you tried AT+QCFG="band" ? See page 36 of the AT commands manual you linked to. That works great for my EP06 to exclude band 2, which it likes but has lots of congestion.

It's kind'a hard to see where the traces are going on the photos. One of the test points doesn't seem to correspond to either main antenna. For each antenna one of the spring contacts should be ground and the other signal. The ground one should be connected to a large ground plane. The other to a re...

I do believe they have test ports. The trick is that some have very tight specs on what or how often you can insert without breaking some fine spring inside. So I'd research the connector carefully... At some point a careful solder job may be better long term. Something to consider is that I'd expec...

I don't have an answer for you. Some suggestions: - pop the SIM back into the iphone and make sure it's still working, maybe you can verify some settings in the iphone, such as APN? - I find `gl_modem -B 1-1.2 cells` on the gl-inet handy, it shows the primary cell and secondaries, you can get that i...

Is the problem with the Mifi power or heat? https://community.verizonwireless.com/t ... -p/1179977
Can you open the case up a bit and point a small fan at it?

The gl-Inet forum has a lot of info, you might try a search for "true hero"...

> now the phone will no longer let me do a USB tether (either PC or WG1608 with GoldenOrb_2020-06-10)

what do you mean? you get an error? the option is greyed out? you can set it up but no traffic flows?

Dumb question: shouldn't the first question be what cell plan is targeted? That might severely limit which modems are going to be accepted on the network, no?

Hmm, that says "developer: BillA", sounds suspiciously like a very notorious black hat hacker!

Before you spend a ton of time on this puppy, you know that you will need to fix the IMEI on this modem for verizon to let/keep you on the network, right? If you don't want to go through the fix process you're better off getting a different modem...

Have you looked at doing a point-to-point wifi to a location where you have wired internet access? Could be to a friend's house where you could mount an antenna...

As far as I can tell, Verizon is kicking devices with unapproved IMEI's off the network. I have a GL-X750 with an EP06-A as well. Have been using it on Verizon with a US-Mobile SIM for over a year just fine. Then I got a message from US-Mobile that I'm using an unapproved device and Verizon would ki...

I have a DSL, which is fine, unless the power goes out 'cause the head-end dies seconds after the power... So I've been running LTE as a backup link on Verizon, using US-mobile pre-paid refilling a 1GB SIM (now 1.5GB) monthly for under $15. Due to power pole replacements we've had around 16 day-long...

@LoveMeSomeCALTE: you asked for some data points... I have two routers with EP06-A modems in SoCal that have been running on Verizon via an MVNO for about a year and a half but are about to get cut off. The modems are direct from China (Gl.Inet) and are not whitelisted in Verizon's DB. Up to now, I ...

FYI: I had trouble getting the forum validation email because my SMTP server refuses it due to the fact that the from address comes from a non-existent domain. Dunno how many other people run into this. Specifically: Jul 26 08:05:25 mail postfix/smtpd[408]: Anonymous TLS connection established from ...
