GL-Inet Spitz

Post by MoarBarz »

Has anyone used one of these boxes with success?

I’d like to swap an AirCard in to this and use it on an ATT tablet plan.
Can anyone confirm compatibility or offer any tips/tricks to make sure this works (before I drop he money on the router/modem)?

My hope is that att will just detect the AirCard as a generic Qualcomm modem (vs if I sim swap in to a hotspot, they will detect it as a nighthawk, etc.)

If not, you may check and see if there is a GoldenOrb build for it.

The box ships with firmware that can address the modem... The issue is getting AT&T to not block it from a tablet plan... So, the same thing people do with Nighthawks but with this thing instead.

Any update on this router? I'm looking at getting it. How did everything work out with it?

What is it people do with Nighthawks? For me the Nighthawk “just worked” with a sim activated in a tablet.

The pre-paid tablet SIMs were being caught as out of device, or abusive levels of data use on hotspot.

Post Paid doesn't yet have that issue.

Thanks for the further explanation.

I shoulda kept my ipad after enabling the SIM for pre-paid ATT service......so I could move it to post paid service! ;)

I assume post paid now has this issue? Mine has stopped working sometime in the last year.
