Wireless Joint

I’m using a $50/m Autopay AT&T plan on a x750 spitz running GoldenOrb. Signal strength is around 40% and stays on B4 most of the day and does CA with B66 or B12 when I’m assuming the tower is congested.

I’ll get disconnected normally once a day or less per my connection log and I have connection ...

And it works with ps4? My only problem is connect to PlayStation network.



Most mobile carriers provide a "private IP" address instead of a public one which is required for some gaming consoles.
Check out the posts below for some possible solutions:

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I am quite experienced with most networking stuff but GoldenOrb is a bit new to me.



I would try the following.

1.
Reflash the router with the latest GoldenOrb firmware in bootloader mode.

Your Device that you are sharing the data to, needs to have TTL (Time to Live) Set to something non-standard, like 65.

Windows CMD: netsh int ipv4 set glob defaultcurhoplimit=65
MAC OS Terminal: sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.ttl=65 (Temp) or net.inet.ip.ttl=65 (Permanent)

Need to be Tether via USB ...

Might work. Might present noise. Not really sure. I should try sometime.

It would probably work, but you would have to play around with the antennas "pairs" to see which combination works best on two 2xMIMO modems.

Hey,
I’m planning on giving my current modem EM7565 to a family member and looking to upgrade to 4x4 Mimo.

Looking for suggestions and experience with Verizon iPad sim on the following modems.

LM960A18
EM160R-GL

There are some other 5g modems available, but doubt we get 5g service here anytime ...

Is "magic" legal in the United States? Having hard time finding straight forward yes or no for this.



Without beating around the bush, the straight answer is "NO", there's a federal law on the books against "cloning". Some people do it with a "donor phone/tablet" which should never be used at ...

Would IMEI be the reason when we are talking about tethering the phone? Wouldn't think so.
Every once in awhile it does work and gets past the 5 Mbps.
Think there is some way they know when you select USB tether on the phone must be flagging them somehow. Cause even after disconnecting it from ...

Unfortunately it doesn't work. I tried several settings including 66. I know my TTL setting works because I use it on Visible. I'm pretty sure it's seeing the "hotspot" APN which I can't change.

I bought the iPad especially for this a couple of weeks ago just when the change happened :( but I'm ...

That's basically what I'm doing with a Raspberry Pi ( https://databurst.medium.com/running-easytether-and-wireguard-on-a-raspberry-pi-4-3804a2bc9447 ). That worked well for me with an Android phone on AT&T. I'm not running EasyTether my laptop or other LAN devices.

That link gives instructions to ...

You're misunderstanding what problem I'm solving with EasyTether. It's not general speed, video throttling or otherwise.

I'm tethering to a tablet using USB on the AT&T $20 tablet plan. That plan has a hard throttle on all hotspot traffic to 128 kbps after 10 GB. It didn't do this until a couple ...

Currently pretty much all phone plans have some kind of hotspot limit.
If you don't want to get a full blown router to bypass the limit, you could go with an inexpensive GL-Inet MT300N mini travel router smaller than a pack of cigarettes.

Thanks, i've implemented your suggestion and will see how that works out going forward. Just got my LM960A18 in today with some new antennas/cables. Excited to see what the new modem and 4x4 mimo might yield.



Another solution to keep the mobile connection alive constantly is by streaming a web ...

Honestly, I try to avoid any providers that route their traffic through different/additional portals than the main providers APN. This is why visible ping times suck. Granted i've not tried them to see if you can avoid their APN or not, but initially liked the idea of a carrier (US Mobile) having ...

Qualcomm devices have a much more secure NVRAM than MTK based ones, so I doubt that there's any simple AT command to repair it in case it gets wiped out. Most likely there's a hidden engineering mode which requires a challenge/response mechanism. Your best option at this time is to go with a Quectel ...

Is there a list of all the AT commands needed to set up the EM12g? I am looking to set up a EM12 on PagePlus.
I looked at the spreadsheet posted above and decided quickly that I was in over my head. I do not want to brick the modem.

Aside from the full list of commands, which bands are required ...

Hello,
Are you saying that it has 4G Lte in both the ipad and Nighthawk? If so that is to be expected. If the device you used to get the card doesn't have 5G the card will not be provisioned with it. Honestly don't even know if 5G is part of the deal with unlimited ipad/tablet plans.
This is the ...

Even if you didn't have the right TTL should still get the 5 down cap. Getting .75 is some other issue would think.



0.75Mbps sounds like a throttled speed, which could be due to several reasons.

1. Lack of signal (simple as that)
2. Wrong TTL which used up all the high speed hotspot data, and ...

Hello.

Is there any way to do so, with a wired or wireless hotspot? Basically, my verizon unlimited plan does not include any hotspot data. Do I need to just stop being cheap and pay $10 more a month, or is there a way to bypass without verizon knowing?

Thanks in advance!



As far as I know ...

It turns out my laptop had the wrong Lan drivers installed. Used another computer and got it working right away and you don't even need to wait 15 sec before/after. Just few seconds unplugged then 4-5 seconds after and you get the portal.

Thank you and the others for helping me on this.

Yes ~2 years ago I removed the lid of the 1608 and put a finned cpu heatsink on the em12g's metal shield held in place with white thermal compound. It reduced the temperature by some but I doubt its nesecary in the environment I have it in.
I do not think the resetting is due to temperature, I ...

Good advice @BillA . I've not flashed the em12 before since it's been problem free. I will see if I can do it with qfirehose and/or try to find m2 sled I bought years back.

Unfortunately I don't have any other router besides the 1608 nor do I have another module. Looks like most options of buying ...

In case anyone else ends up at this thread, I was facing what I think is the same issue. I was trying to get expresspvn working in client mode on:

Hostname WiFiX
Model WE1326v5
Architecture MediaTek MT7621 ver:1 eco:3
Firmware Version GoldenOrb_2019-04-09
Kernel Version 4.14.63

I was able to use ...

I get moire or less the same problem. Did you solve it?

I'm looking to install a newer firmware, did you do that? If so, where can I find one?



First you need to determine the actual cause for the connection drop, which can be caused by several factors.
1. Failing router hardware
2. Failing ...

Is AT&T still a viable option for unlimited hotspot using TTL/IMEI mods? Any direction on which plan to purchase?

I'm on VZ right now and it's pretty good but I do get throttled after what must be 50GB. The problem with VZ and that the network in my area is saturated and I get 10Mbps on 5G. On my ...

For the WAN interface the IG is connected to, you may also need to uncheck the option for blocking private networks since the 192.168.225.1 is in the RFC 1918 space.



Your post prompted me to read the RFC 1918/Private Network Addressing Wiki, which made me realize that the private address ...

Has anyone encountered this issue on their Nighthawk hotspot before? It’s an unlocked MR6500, works fine via Ethernet and USB tethering, but will not broadcast WiFi it has 💤 beside the WiFi symbol. Is there a command I can run to try to fix it? I’ve done a hard reset already and no luck.



Try a ...

Use an Ohm meter to easily find the ground then the rest.

Update: Seems like the issue is resolved. Here is what I did:

Thanks again for all the help and advice fellas, will update if anything changes.
Cheers.



I'm glad that it seems to be working, at least for now.
For random modem/router issues it's always a good idea to start with a fresh baseline ...

F*ckin' ayy! They always have to mess with stuff which ain't broken.
No more nice Custom Rules GUI, but silly command line config. :(
Seriously, what were they thinking ...

Using the GL-MT6000 with a GL-M2 for cellular connection, but I don't see an options or icons for Signal Tower Lock, Historical Signal Record, or Band Masking. I've never had those options the whole time I've owned this router.

Does anyone know if these options were ever present on this router ...

Okay. I'm still learning about the hardware. I keep having problems with my pings, until I've realise that the factory 4 antennas is garbage.... So, I've found two worthy antenna upgrades. I can keep it sleek and discrete or I can just simply upgrade from these crappy ones. So these are two of the ...

Probably no hardware configurations for the modem, but definitely needs some software settings to make it work with your carrier.

It's usually a simple solution to an elusive problem.
I always disable IPv6 both on the router's modem and LAN/WiFi interfaces, and the pc (just don't like IPv6 for some reason lol).
Then I set the DNS to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 on both the router and pc's LAN/WiFi interfaces for better performance.
In ...

Hi, Thanks for this. It works well, the only thing I have noticed is the performance of the modem internally is very much faster than any option of sharing that connection out.
