I'm done with zbt routers after years. for a 5G module the processor aint powerful enough. I switch to openwrt x86 mini pc with 5G enclosure. Works great and i switch to ecm mode rather than qmi or mbim been stable.

fix is editing 'configure opkg' button on softwar tab. change all https to http. works in openwrt same with goldenorb

do you have heatsink installed?

Bonus is hardware offloading is also supported by wg1608 with the mt7621 hardware. From the experiment he is limited to 250Mbps without software offloading. Im using openwrt so t...

i finally updated my firmware. sadly i can't connect to 5G bands. apparently, the mobile network is tricking us to believe that we are on 5G but actually it was only on 4G LTE. i tried going as near to the tower using my phone and with netmonster app, it showed that i was connected to 5G but was usi...

Although the slot is m.2 it is actually working/detected as USB. The version is what im not sure.

Pcie 1.1 is 250 MB/s
Im not sure if it works that way

He gave me a different version ie RM520NGLAAR01A07M4G i will try updating using my adapter

Gracias. If my doubt is correct, maybe the m.2 slot is only usb 2.0

well i found out that Cioswi firmware is indicating im connected to 5g but when i checked on socat im only connected to LTE aggregated to 4 bands despite availability of 5g in the area. that's why it can't pass the 250 https://forums.quectel.com/t/request-rm520n-gl-latest-firmware-qfirehose-windows/...

My speedtest can max only 250 down & 50 down. I want to try updating module firmware as it might improve.

I ordered WG1608 with RM520ngl. I found out that performance will depend on the antennas. Terminals 0 & 3 (outermost) supports Low Bands (eg band 28), Medium High bands (eg band 1 to band 41) and Ultra High Bands (above band 41) , while terminals 1&2 (innermost) supports Medium High and Ultr...

hi ive been using the wg1608 with em160rgl for quite sometime now. however im wondering if i have to replace the power adapter since it came only with the 12v 2a variant.

although it works with the said adapter. will the performance improve with replacing it to 3a or higher?

Im sharing im test i conducted.. Thanks

If you're using m. 2 adapter replace it. It occured to me with my em12-g. Waking up one time with log saying module not found. Replacing adapter worked.

Em20 is not available anymore. I same router with new EM160r-gl.

I have no problem with the firmware on my wg1608.

Im using the new em160r-gl. The new modem runs MBIM protocol not qmi.

Check my video review. Never use 06-14 version. It is faulty. Use 06-10 version

using my Huawei P30 phone, i can see that tower supports 4G+ with Band 1+3+28 and Band 3+3+1, even doing Band 3+3+1+28. so i tried it on the em12-g. i have tried using the spreadsheet to my em12-g : AT+QCFG="band",0,8000005 it works for Band 1+3+28. however when i try: AT+QCFG="band&q...

i had the same problem, the cause was the faulty m.2 to pciem adapter

page will disappear if you are using wifi to upgrade. use lan cable. we826 has 2 versions, mediatek and qualcom chipset. t/t2 is mediatek while q is qualcom.
