Im wondering if the Impact Wireless settings in this junker modem and dingleberry may be making it suck so bad.
Hostname ImpactWireless
Model ZBT-WE826 (16M)
Architecture MediaTek MT7620A ver:2 eco:6
Firmware Version GoldenOrb_2019-11-16
Kernel Version 4.14.131
any settings I should look at?
The new people posted about putting "b2b.static" in APN
the only APN i could find is in Modem Connection Profiles.
Didnt seem to do anything.
Please let me know if there is other info to post that would help anyone

Re: WiFiX WE826 Settings
Usually changing APN isn't the best idea.
The router firmware is dated, I believe there is newer firmware available.
Try not to test "speeds" via wifi, many goldenorb based/capable LTE routers have abysmal wifi speeds and really shouldnt be the benchmark for how fast your router is.
I think focusing on optimizing your antenna signal stats should be primary focus before touching speed testa, though sometimes certain speed test results can be a tell tale. For example, if you have very low download speeds and high upload speeds, you likely have tower band congestion; too many people using the same tower and band. If you have higher download speed and almost non existent or even failed upload speeds you likely do not have a strong enough signal going out (weak antenna, too dar from tower) and are unable to communicate back to the cell tower; though the cell signal is reaching you via high power tower radio transmissions.
Hope this helps some
What modem is installed in your router?

Re: WiFiX WE826 Settings
Thanks for the explanation. I used to be able to seed linux distro torrents, play online, all sorts of havoc and then suddenly BOOM. El sucko. Can barely surf the web.
I am using a netgear unite explorer or aircard or someting right now because the unit described above blows so bad. the modem a WE826 and an "Alicorn" Wingle USB dongle thingy. I opened the router and i didnt find anything chunky.
