Looking For Tutoral On Setting Up My Quectel EM-12G Modem

Post by kzaudio »

Instead of searching high and low, is there a place where I can learn all the programming specs for this guy? Band Info, TTL, AT-Comands etc. Id love to learn this stuff but I returned my MoFi 4500 today and would like to get this bad boy setup quickly. Looking for Cliff's Notes for now if there are any. Using Visible.

Thanks guys

Hello,

Here is a link on how to set up Visible on Quectel modems
https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=32 ... lit#p11658

Also include a messy file of mine that I use as reference on the Quectel AT commands.

@kzaudio @gsheb...
Were either of you able to get your EM-12Gs set up? I am moving from the EP06 to the EM-12. Currently I am able to connect but my speeds are slow. Can you share a set of at commands you used to get your devices running? I looked at the commands from the previous post, but those look more like notes than instructions.

It would be nice to know from a factory reset what is required.
Does it help to specify bands, or can I just have it autoscan?

Thanks!

I am open to PagePlus (preferred) or SimpleMobile. I have all the router settings I need for those. What I am not sure about is what modem (at+commands) settings are needed to be addresses from a factory reset (for the Em-12g).

Thanks for that
I am looking for what commands are required after a fresh start (oem state).

In the txt doc provided above, the IPV Modes section looks carrier specific.
Do I run all the commands starting with ...Set Connection Modes?

Most carriers this is all you need to do. Only some get more complicated.

Re Right Antenna (?U.FL to FM SMA - RG178?) Quectel EM-12G Modem

Post by Ytgr848 »

I ordered 1 QUECTEL EM12-G Modem.

I ordered 2 U-FL FEMALE to SMA Straight RG178 ANTENNA cables.

Here's my problem:. The Antenna cables DO NOT CONNECT to the Modem.

Are these the correct CABLES to CONNECT to the Modem?

If they are not, What are the correct
cables I should have?

Thank you for your prompt response!

Welcome!


You need MHF4 connectors on all M.2 style modems ("EM" modems, like EM12, EM20, EM7565, etc)
