Hey Tuna8er, I would refrain from using configuration backups. I always recommend using fresh flashed firmware and resetting the details by hand. Even though the config was from a working problem free setup, it can still cause issues. Yay openWRT.

I would do the firmware recovery and flash the ...

Hello, Had a issue in the past that Mofi firmware wouldn't work since was using the wrong protocol. Allot of time when you flash firmware will change your protocol.

These commands won't work with a SIM 7 set up.

The easiest method (without having to remove the modem and installing in a USB to Mini PCI-E adapter and reprogramming the modem) would be to reinstall GoldenOrb.

Then, use the AT-Terminal to place the modem in QMI using the following commands:

at!entercnd="A710"
at!usbcomp=1,1,10d
at!reset ...

Hello,
Would appreciate any possible help on this.

Running a Mofi 4500 on T-mobile. Was having an issue with carrier aggregation on the mofi so wanted to try the gorlden orb and openwrt systems I read on here. So I flashed this unit to run on Golden orb with a file I found on this site. And had it ...

Thank you so much for the quick reply. Will try that after the work day.
I of course live in a rural area and have been learning to do this stuff for around a year or more. With Netgears Nighthawk m1 and LB1121 and the Mofi. In the beginning didn't know about Cat lte modems or carrier aggregation or ...

Just wanted to say thanks again and that fixed my issue. It recognizes the card and is back up and running again.

Glad you are back up and running.

Hello again,

May try to remove the modem and just try to get the router to work.

Just want to make sure you are putting in the right ip address after doing openwrt flash. It would change to be different than what Mofi is. Probably 192.168.1.1

OpenWrt did not work either. Anyone have suggestions?

Don't know why but in the past when had issues loading firmware onto a WE826-T2 this firmware would work. Once had it on there could load what ever firmware I wanted. Always loaded it with the bootloader method that talked about earlier ...

Does it allow to do the bootloader method? Are you ever choosing the firmware to be added or do you not get that far?

Can you follow the boot loader method exactly? And use the ip address it says and forget about modi ip address.

Tuna8er wrote: Wed Sep 01, 2021 11:00 pm I tried it again with that file, same thing. I am using the mofi recovery page on 192.168.10.7, and to get there the static IP of 192.168.10.7, subnet 255.255.255.0, gateway, 192.168.10.1

Did you try not starting with this above? Start out with what the boot loader says to do.

What does the router/routers board look like? MTK7621 is a processor chip that these routers use, not really the brand/make/model of router.

If using dual modems, make sure you have them both in MBIM or QMI. (I prefer MBIM)

for MBIM
AT+QCFG="usbnet",2

for QMI
AT+QCFG="usbnet",0

Reset the modem after settings: AT+CFUN=1,1

That is an H721 M2M. Here is the proper goldenorb firmware: http://aturnofthenut.com/upload/h721-GO2021-05-18-wifi.zip

Here is the last version I have from the manufacturer: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

You're getting there!

Google drive links: You can right click on the folder in side drive (if you have any created) and select 'get link'. Gotta make sure its set to sharing the way you want too.

I don't think you will have much luck with typical "IT" PC store. They may know of the networking side of things but i'm sure at this point you would know more about the "LTE" side of it unless they have experience already. At this point it could be several things such as comms (mbim vs. qmi, etc ...

This worked for an EM160R-GL on Visible. Only change:

Instead of
- Set to 4g LTE only Command = AT+QCFG="nwscanmode",3,1

Use
- Set to 4g LTE only Command = AT+QNWPREFCFG="mode_pref",LTE

If you run AT+QPRTPARA=3, always follow it with AT+QPRTPARA=1

Has something to do with retelling the flash to save parameter changes in backup

Below is an edit to the original instructions per some changes from Didneywhorl's post

This should work for Quectel Modems EC25-AF, EP06 and EM12

Before you start this might want to set back to OEM state if you been putting other commands in to start off fresh.

- Set modem to its OEM state ...

Been connected for a few days now. It looks like my connection is solid. Thank you all for the help.

Technically don't have to do that command if you didn't want too. Could just do this in its place shown below ...

Running at+cgdcont? is returning an error with my EC25-AF. Any ideas?

If you don't have a SIM card inserted, sometimes that happens.

Sim will be here tomorrow. Will update when it arrives.

@BillA,
Thanks for the info! You mentioned auto-scan, that seems a lot easier than using the specific band commands. The spreadsheet came up with the following commands:

Band 2 = AT+QCFG="band",0,2
Band 4 = AT+QCFG="band",0,8
Band 5 = AT+QCFG="band",0,10
Band 13 = AT+QCFG="band",0,1000
Band 66 ...

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 ...

Does that mean it will always use B4 as primary/preferred band?


Well, the answer appears to be no. I noticed my internet was slower than usual, checked and found that the modem had selected B13, occasionally aggregating with B4, but definitely using B13 as primary. Sent AT command to lock onto ...

I used the Excel doc from the tutorial to generate following AT command to set the Quectel EP06 to look for B4, B13, and B66, in that order:

AT+QCFG="band"
+QCFG: "band",0x260,0x20000000000001008,0x1

Does that mean it will always use B4 as primary/preferred band? This is what I want. What I don't ...
