Issues with EP06E

Post by Toomoch »

Hi, so I have an issue with my EP06E modem that is installed on my U7621 router. Every few hours it will lose connection and the ip will become 0.0.0.0, and I have tried everything, and the only way to solve it is rebooting, which is not that convenient.

Here is the modem debug information:

Tue Aug 11 11:23:10 2020 : /dev/ttyUSB2 AT+CGDCONT=?
+CGDCONT: (1-24),"IP",,,(0-3),(0-4),(0-1),(0-1)
+CGDCONT: (1-24),"PPP",,,(0-3),(0-4),(0-1),(0-1)
+CGDCONT: (1-24),"IPV6",,,(0-3),(0-4),(0-1),(0-1)
+CGDCONT: (1-24),"IPV4V6",,,(0-3),(0-4),(0-1),(0-1)
OK

Tue Aug 11 11:23:12 2020 : /dev/ttyUSB2 AT+CGDCONT?;+CFUN?
+CGDCONT: 1,"IPV4V6","movistar.es","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 2,"IPV4V6","ims","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 3,"IPV4V6","sos","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,1
+CFUN: 1

I had reconnect always enabled. Now I have enabled with power toggle or modem reconnect. I am running the lastest firmware available, GoldenOrb 2020-03-01 18.06.7. I have also tried OpenWrt 19.07, and the same issue happens, and it reports NETWORK_REGISTRATION_FAILED.

Where are you located? What service and APN are you using? "movistar.es"?

I think my carrier is disconnecting clients every 24H. I have scheduled a reboot at 5.30 AM but if, for example, I rebooted the router at manually at 8PM it still loses connection at 8PM the next day. I'll try setting the reboot a little bit later at 9 AM and see what it does.

I know this is an old thread but the wifix firmware has a built in option specifically for this. It pings the router and modem every 10 min and will either reset the modem or reboot the router depending on what is not responding
