Could go straight to the 4x4 MIMO: https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/antennas/4g-lte ... onnectors/

Hi – New member here looking for some guidance. Sorry for the long post. If you are willing to read it, then you have my sincere thanks!

I just discovered this awesome site and wish I had known about it 12 months ago when we moved to the country. I am looking to assemble my first build, but would ...

As an update here:

I grabbed a T-Mobile Home Internet setup even though my current location's ZIP doesn't allow for it... I'm uh. Moving. Yeah. So they shipped it to me here. It's fast and working great.

I also grabbed a Raspberry Pi 4 8gb. It's got Speedify running on it.

I've now got a ...

Update: Orbi setup added, as well as a USB-Ethernet dongle for the T-Mobile Home Internet. This is amazing and requires almost no maintenance/fiddling. I'm still fine tuning, but think this is absolutely going to be the best option for my needs here. 8800L and Nighthawk tethered VIA USB, TMobile via ...

Preference.

One unit to aim and mount vs two.

Not sure theres a performance difference if both are dialed in the same

OK. First, there is a new NEXR5GO firmware.... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Szhc6sBa7XXqVS1qMjROVWV9bNlNJHaj/view?usp=sharing

Second... go to the menu Status-->System Log

Scroll down and look for the section that sees your USB modem connected, kind of like ....

Never messed with speedify. Maybe just use the speedify app on the devices themselves?

Most openWRT based routers like the MOFI are basically little Linux computers with specific hardware on it. The raspberryPi is a small Linux computer and thus some people have figured out how to set the RaspberryPi to run the openWRT firmware (like an OS) which turns it into a router basically ...

I think it is. I love the EM160

Yes I have both. If you don't need band 71 the 160 outperforms it. Especially when it aggregates band 2, 4 and 12 or band 2, 12 and 66. And because it can CA on UL it will match or beat 71. Where I'm at band 71 is great on UL so when the 7411 combines 66 and 71 is also awesome. But I wouldn't ...

As some of you may know, or have recently found out, the newest Quectel modems (EM160, EM120, RM500, RM510, RM502) do NOT use all of the same AT commands as the predecessor modems.

Here are a list of a few new commands and what they should do, and a list of commands that I've found not working ...

When I get a new modem I run through its commands via manual discovery.

ie: I typed in .. ...and it gave me a list of commands that all looked interesting.

Hello

I wanted to purchase an EM160R card which is a 4x4 MIMO modem. But currently I still only have a 2x2 antenna which I may upgrade later.

Welcome to the forum!


I have the following questions:

Q1 : In case of a 2x2 MIMO antenna, on which ports should ...

There is a command to basically tell the modem you want it to prefer up to 3 bands.

I think it works on the EM160, I'll have to test sometime:

AT+QCFG="lte/bandprior",<band>,<band>,<band>


This is odd... If I query all options for +QCFG, it shows that lte/bandprior is a valid option:
AT+QCFG ...

Hi people of Wireless Joint,
I am Rich Hathaway.
I just made this account for one purpose which is to warn people here about some idiots that are scamming people that have been reading this and other threads about kernel patching to achieve a static value for time to live in their hotspots and other ...

So I think i got it,
first run
AT+QENG="neighbourcell"

+QENG: "neighbourcell intra","LTE",800,412,-16,-93,-56,0,-,-,-,-,-

+QENG: "neighbourcell intra","LTE",800,254,-17,-95,-68,0,-,-,-,-,-

+QENG: "neighbourcell intra","LTE",800,258,-20,-99,-68,0,-,-,-,-,-

+QENG: "neighbourcell intra","LTE",800 ...

I don't think the Samsung A51 or the A71 pick up low band 5G. I was thinking about doing the same thing, but will probably look to a phone that picks up both the low and mid band. Just something to consider for people who are more rural, like myself.



As I mentioned previously, there are two ...

I have the same router/modem---new to me (rig)
trying to get up with a Verizon tablet plan-post paid, that I know works in another router--no love.
I got this info over on the FB site, and it worked for me. run each command and wait for an (ok) on last command, wait--it should reboot on it's own ...

so how do you change the TTL settings for IPv6


It depends on the device, but if you are using a device with rooter, you can place the following rules in the firewall-->custom Rules tab, to cover both ip4 and ip6:

# A Hashtag is in place if not using that line.

# Popular TTL values: 64 for ...

Same here, great success with the RM500Q's. Testing a RM502Q next week.

I've had great luck with the Quectel RM500Q (both GL and AE versions) using a WG3526-P router. I use a USB3 to M.2 adapter for the modem to use the USB3 bus on the WG3526 router. the WG1608 router seems to have random issues that I don't think earns itself a spot on the "most stable" list. It's ...

Hello,

I am using merlinwrt on an asus router with a phone tethered for internet. On Verizon I spoofed all ttl to 65 and I was able to bypass hotspot throttling fine. However, on AT&T even with the ttl at 65 it is still showing as hotspot usage under my at&t app. I tried using the built in bypass ...

May need to modify the ttl and hl on the phone itself

I was hoping somebody could explain what the advantages are of using the GoldenOrb firmware as opposed to the OpenWRT firmware which GoldenOrb is based off of? I was under the impression that at a high level, GoldenOrb was a fork of OpenWRT which added capabilities to do USB tethering of LTE devices ...

I have used openwrt for a long time but am also just getting started with LTE and GoldenOrb. My take is if you just want to tether a phone, openwrt is fine -- works for me. But if you want to connect an LTE modem directly (instead of a phone), the GoldenOrb has more extensive support for various LTE ...

Thanks...I re-flashed my router to move to OpenWRT and it seems to be working ok thus far. One other point of distinction is that is seems that load balancing is only available as a standard feature with GoldenOrb. It looks like it is possible to do with OpenWRT, but would require a little more ...

I would agree with BDF1234, the MoFi is a good starter unit but if you need speed you will need to build a hot rod.
It’s not as scary as it sounds, the boys at the The Wireless Haven Store and the users here can help!!

Often when you buy and off the self, turn key unit they lack the access to the ...

The Verizon MVNO and prepaid phone plans need the modem IMEI to match, and it's an ass pain. There is lots of info on using the Verizon pre-paid on here. BillA has helped many with it. Search for his posts on Verizon.

You can use the ATT ipad plan on your setup. $35 a month right now, still tested ...
