Silvergt correct me if I’m wrong but the diff on a MC7455 and your EM7565 is yours supports gigabit. Is there any other performance you can get out of it. I’m pretty sure the network around here couldn’t reach 100mbps. But I’d be happy to get 20-30 more consistently.


The MC7455 modem is cat6 ...

Here's another post I did earlier this year on the ROOter forum, which is now a bit difficult to find. I did this post in late January, and I've since moved from the Raspberry Pi 4B to a Qotom x86 (i3) industrial PC with 4x gigabit Ethernet ports, 2x USB3 and 2x USB2 ports. OpenMPTCProuter needs an ...

Try THIS

The WG3526-P LTE Router is designed to accommodate PoE installations (i.e., the attic, outdoors in an LTE antenna/enclosure, etc.). The WG3526-P may be powered using a 48 Volt 35W-100W Gigabit Power over Ethernet POE injector, as well as its standard 12 Volt DC 2.5 Amp power adapter that comes with ...

Wow. I've been working off lte for prob 6 or so years, lost track. Started building devices based on these groups about 2-1/2 years ago. I love this technology.

I hear ya on the massive charges from ATT, just not that bad. Comcast wanted around $15k to install on my end, but the equipment wouldnt ...

Would be appreciative if you could recommend a VPS/hosting company?


Hard to argue with Vultr, if you're in the U.S -- my current OMR VPS is running me $5/mo. Use whichever of their datacenters that's closest to you.

Otherwise, have a look at the list of tested platforms in the OMR ...

If it wasn't for this post I would have never known of this. I'm extremely surprised that this isn't a MUCH more popular thread honestly

Glad you found the post useful! I'm amazed too at the relatively modest interest in what OpenMPTCProuter has to offer.

I'm currently in an area with very ...

And here's the follow-on post I did, about a month later, after moving to the x86 router box:

If you missed my original post on this amazing upgrade to your ROOter setup (assuming you have at least two decent sources of Internet available), you might want to have a look at this post first whrl.pl ...

for the most part that is correct, except on the return path rather than "Verizon or TMobile" the vps routes the return packets via multiple TCP connections over "Verizon AND TMobile". The built in mwan3 in OpenWRT/GoldenOrb (aka Load Balancing) is basically the return path being "Verizon OR TMobile ...

Hey, bhnf2!

Can you confirm you have had no luck with Verizon yet?

Unfortunately, it's my best provider so far.

thx!



Verizon blocks multi-cast packets so it won't work unless you run it through a VPN tunnel, unfortunately it's going to slow it down significantly, and increase latency too ...

On the other hand, I've been using Verizon, Viaero Wireless and a local phone company's DSL for the last month with reasonable results. When I run Speedtest.net, I can see traffic passing on all three of my WANs -- with similar numbers on the two cellular links. On top of that, I've used about the ...

That's big brain stuff way above me, I'd love to know too.

Oh, yeah. Take the ipad. Even better. Thats easiest.

Band 66 is available through a few modems. If your looking for a similar capabilty modem the Sierra EM7511 also has B14, over the EM7565.

Otherwise, I actually prefer the Quectel EM12G, or if you want more power and 2 more antennas for 4x mimo ...

Would Netflix Prime etc block you if you had a site to site VPN setup to your primary residence 60 miles away? I've got gigabit at our primary residence and have thought about running the VPS at the main house given the ample bandwidth (although I don't have a static IP there).


I can't imagine ...

Just one persons opinion though!
Fear the Mofi :twisted:


Also decided to share my personal option about MOFI. Yes, I also have bad experience with getting answers to technical questions - asked twice or 3 times, no response. But when I was buying the MOFI and was communicating with sales dep ...

Gotcha....I see it is enabled.

So, Verizon fails the Mulipath TCP test. When I look at the realtime bandwidth usage, it is definitely being used for data...with slightly less throughput then the two ATT accounts.

Is it worth it to turn on the VPN option for the Verizon connection? If so ...

I see the same thing when I use Verizon, in that it fails the Multipath test -- yet is still passing traffic and clearly contributing to the overall performance. I've tried the VPN option you referenced with no improvement. Verizon remains an enigma, but my link has been better with it than ...

For some unknown reason (for now), tracebox report Multipath disabled for some ISP that are in fact correctly aggregated. When multipath is really blocked, the connection is not used at all and you have only bandwidth used by ICMP ping test visible in bandwidth graph.


That explains the mystery ...

Things have changed for us here in the far reaches of the Colorado mountains -- we now have fiber!

It's been a few weeks now, and I'm still liking having OMR in the mix, despite our new found Internet riches. I've always had two WiFi networks setup, one that uses OMR and another that doesn't. House ...

Are you guys suggeting that MikroTik RBM33G be openmptcrouter? I ask as that was what I thought and I do not see a download image for it?


We're not suggesting that -- and it's not powerful enough. Everything we've been talking about related to the RBM33G, is for downstream routers -- on the WAN ...

Not positive but I do believe I was having trouble with the onboard slots. I know it has to be inserted into one or the other and jumpers set correctly etc. I'd say if you got to the point you had that firmware installed and running on the board then there is a good chance things would work ...

I'll sign up the second they offer it to me.

There is an antenna command that should look at each port:

AT+QRSRP?

It is generally important.

The 4x4 antenna has 2 pairs of antennas within, each pair coming out of opposite sides.

You would want to pair one of those sides to the primary set on the modem (M & D/G) and the other side to the ...

Unfortunately for me, it is likely to be a better option.


Yeah that's the thing. For a lot of people it is actually a really good option. I know plenty of people have been getting essentially scammed by dsl and satellite internet that provides maybe 1Mbps-3Mbps down and still end up paying $60 ...

Price is too high for what they offer. I can not imagine they will find many takers. The only way I might be interested is if they got their price down under $50/mo, with equipment costs under $200 or free as part of the service.

2nd that hobby sentiment!! I signed up for a pre-order, even if it's just to get in the queue.

My load-balanced dual-LTE Visible ($25*2/month) has been pretty stable the last 2-3 months since I started it, but on the weekend it's abysmal (as expected - tourists come in to town and flood the towers ...

I've only had it for literally an hour but I've never had a test like this on LTE at 5PM. So far testing the worst test was 68mbps down.

As curiosity, and after today's T-mobile Home internet failure, I decided to see if Starlink was available in my location. Their website requires your address and a request to order before giving you any information. It says it is slated for mid 2021 in my location but they would happily sign me ...

Thanks to this forum i've been using the PagePlus $55 a month plan which has worked pretty well.

My Starlink is being delivered this Thursday. I'd be happy to provide some data once I have it.

Installation was super painless. Currently getting 30ms ping 60-100mb/s up and 10-20mb/s down on Starlink.

Would you give a review on your Starlink Gateway for what it offers?


Things I've seen so far is the GUI seems to made for troubleshooting by tech support it's filled with stats and such, but nothing you can fiddle with.
The supplied router has a very good Wifi signal, but I ditched it because ...

cool, thanx for that input! Any benefits/preference for modems in their own router boards (eg: mikrotik rbm33g or 11g connected to the OMR via ethernet) Vs. USB modems only connected directly to the OMR (using the OMR's USB port/s ala Rooter)? I read you've used the ethernet/vlan route, but ...
