Router issue or Tmobile blacklisted my mofi?

Post by Alberteezy21 »

Hello everyone first time poster here. I am using a MOFI 4500 SIM7 on Tmobile with a external antenna. Been using it for 2 months and haven't had issues until now. I can't get any internet connection. Now I did switch from $60 unlimited w/hotspot to $50 unlimited without hotspot. But that shouldn't matter since I had changed the ttl settings to use the cell data instead. Now I confirmed that data works fine when I pop the sim into my phone. I also installed my personal verizon sim into the mofi and had the internet light come on briefly on the mofi, but verizon detected it right away and now blocked it and reported my sim as stolen lol. So I can't fully confirm that it was working. I'm able to band scan and lock into bands 2 and 4 with 3-4 bars, but still get no internet data output. So my question is can Tmobile be blocking my Mofi or is my router junk? Anyone ever encountered this or am I missing something? Thanks in advanced.

You set both ipv4 and ipv6 ttl settings? You likely still need the hotspot data. Even if you "arent using it"

Sorry for never replying 😅 The issue was it got blacklisted by t-mobile. Got it working thanks to R00ter and QUECTEL commands 😉

Can you please post the commands you used to unblock. Seems like you were looking for that answer and I could really help a lot of people out including me, though I’m on Verizon
