Re: WE826go with mc7455

After you set all the settings, did you fully power down the unit (unplug it) then reboot and give it approx 10 mins? Where is the SIM card from? Was it attached and transmitting data in a previous device before entering into the we826? What output do you get from entering AT!GSTATUS? in the AT comm...

Re: My 4G setup/project

I looked at them a while back, and they were all low level CAT rated, verses buying the newer Sierra MC series modems which supported the latest LTE releases. The HAT version doesnt have a modem embedded like the shields previously. Its pretty new-ish. https://sixfab.com/product/raspberry-pi-base-h...

Re: Nighthawk MR1100 "Mobile Broadband Disconnected"

Could always get a WE826GO from thewirelesshaven.com and pop in a modem of your choice.

Why not flash it to the Netgear unbranded firmware?

Re: SIM locked to a device?

What cellular provider is the service through and where did the SIM card for it come from? What size is the SIM card?

Re: EM12-G Carrier Aggregation AT&T

Are you powering the usb enclosure separately or are you relying on the usb from the pi to power it?

Re: CLB100 TMobile

What firmware do they run on that router? What modem does it have inside? The router itself is a rebranded ZBT WG3526. I run mine (WG3526, with a Quectel EM20G, previously a Sierra MC7455) on Sprint, but it shouldnt be hard to get running properly on Tmobile. Do you know where your carriers towers a...

Re: Mini PCI-E adapter with SIM card slot

The Sim card slot on that adapter doesnt touch the modem as it seems it might, atleast not in my build it didnt. I have one installed in a WG3526 router using a Quectel EM20 modem. The SIM card slot isnt for use in routers that have SIM slots. The WE826T2/GO has its SIM slot on the outside, so it'd ...

Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

Ya got me, misread the chart on Quectels site.

So yeah, Id say that the R850 was faster because it was rockin it on B41.

Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

I was incorrect, B41 is available on the EP-06

But you may want to check if your using B41, Modem->Network Status I believe

Or At command AT+CSQ I believe

Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

Also the r850 can pick up B41, the Quectel EP06 does not I think I read. Sprint Band 41 is the speedy DL channel, but very capped upload, whereas the FDD, lower, channels (25,26) CAN have better upload speeds but dont match B41 DL speeds.

Re: Are Sprint sim cards device locked?

The franklin MAY have been getting better signal. The EP06 is a more capable modem, but the hotspots can be pretty well optimized out of the box
