I do not know why it is but AT&T sometimes provisions a hotspot data only sim in certain devices as being 3G (WCDMA or even HSPSA). You will need to contact them to re-provision or (in some cases) send you a new sim. You are not the one at fault it is the automatic system AT&T uses. I had the same ...

I have tried everything I can find to try, but cannot get the tether to use phone data, just keeps burning hotspot data. I tried TTL/HL of 64,65 and 66. With IPv6 enabled and disabled, with custom DNS servers and without. Nothing works. I finally gave up and took the SIM out of the phone, popped it ...

Also at&t don't require ttl. Just apn and ready to go.

I have a feeling you are going to go round and round until you swap over to an imei that is a supported device. I have never heard of anyone being able to actually activate the quectel imei and be good to go. Even though they (att rep) did it and say its okay, I would put money on the problem still ...

Hello Yes, it is frustrating for me also, but I reinstalled the latest firmware LEDE again, because the firmware "wg1608-20200624_111921" does the same now. I have the same problem with my EC25 and EM12. Sometimes I think is a ISP problems to avoid the saturation of the network... maybe they drops ...

Since I bought this modem not that long ago and paid a good amount of money I would prefer to use this one for now. Thanks for any assistance or suggestions! Good advice it’s a little late Most people get the hardware then find this site when they need help. When I see RV 9 out of 10 times it’s a Mo ...

Thanks guys for responding and trying to help me. Honestly, I thought I was a smart guy… until I read the last couple post. I have no idea what any of that is. Does anyone sell all of that you described already assembled and ready to go for my Verizon sim? Danny No doubt, its a lot to take in. A y ...

Good advice it’s a little late Most people get the hardware then find this site when they need help. When I see RV 9 out of 10 times it’s a MoFi :o Thanks for your information it can help others. Yeah it's sad. A lot of us out there trying to now use it after buying it to use with some 3rd party WiF ...

@armysarge21 patching a kernel is not something that is a static operation, meaning its different on most every device and I would say a fairly complicated endeavor. I do not know where to tell you to read up on it maybe xda or some of the Russian forums I am not sure maybe google around, but its ...

Thanks everyone for the input. I am going to send an email today and see what I can get going!

Thanks again. I will be in touch.

Danny

Yes for sure took me three days to get it working

That was my next step, and I am going to give it a shot tomorrow and see if it shows me access to b66.

Thank you for the information, this makes a whole lot more sense the way you put it.

Hay OSUKrazyKate There are many modems and Antennas to pick from. If you can list your needs/goals and your budget the group can offer better information for your setup. Also helps to know about your location and what Carrier / bands you plan to use. Are you able to use your MoFI in the short term ...

RESOLVED: The problem was actually with Consumer Cellular who is a MVNO of AT&T. I had been using the very same router, the same Rooter firmware, the same modem and the same SIM card since 2015 (last upgraded firmware of router in 2017). Everything stopped working on 2021, April. The strange thing ...

After days of troubleshooting and trying the modem on different devices, I was able to get it working with Visible. Hopefully this can help anyone else experiencing a similar problem. Using a Linux computer I pushed all the AT commands posted above from the guide except for AT+QCFG="nwscanmode",3,1 ...

Ok thank you, I ran the command as you suggested. Do you have any other recommendations on how I can get this to work either with Rooter - OpenWRT or natively within Linux?

@Didneywhorl

I appreciate the advice! I love reading through the threads on this forum, so much useful information!

The IMEI is like the VIN number for your car. You would only change it if you were up to no good. The same thing is true for modems. It can be done but is not talked about here. Would need to use the Google. How it helps is like your car VIN number there is a lot of information in the number. like ...

I know the MOFI was working great for me previously most of the places I was located, but I am now considering this modem https://thewirelesshaven.com/shop/routers/4g-lte-routers/lt500-cellular-router-with-dual-band-wifi-plug-and-play/ That modem is no better than the Mofi. The wifi router is ...

How do I confirm if I am using phone data or hotspot data? The short answer, trial and error. You get the modem connected and do something to use data, like streaming. Wait a few hours, or overnight, and log in to your account to see whether data counted as hotspot data or unlimited data. If it is ...

Do you have any suggestions that is affordable, works great, and will last me for a bit? I would suggest getting the most you can possibly get out of the Mofi and then reassess. You will learn a lot as you gain experience with it and build your knowledge base. You will then be in a better position ...

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 g ...

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 ...

I was able to take the unit apart and find a button (which I assumed to be RESET).
After resetting, the unit works like it came out of the box.

Thanks everyone.

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

hello, I purchased the NEXQ6GO-M , Mini pci-e to m.2 adapter with top sim card slot and the EM12-G CAt12 M.2 modem.The Modem Miscellaneous screen says modem present/not connected.I have a working visible sim (20meg down on unlocked iphone 7)installed in NEXQ6GO-M sim slot on the side of NEXQ6GO.I ...

Just wanted to follow up on this and getting the em7511 to work on a cba850. It is tricky, but I believe I have all the requirements now. 1. The em7511 has to have a usb pid of 9091,9090. Run at!usbpid=9091,9090 to get that. 2. The em7511 has to be in qmi mode. Run at!usbcomp=1,3,10d to get that ...

I ended up having to throw a Page Plus SIM card in, working with APN of tracfone.vzwentp and TTL of 117 (though support offered up an APN of ivzwentp.tracfone.com?) So, it wasn't anything weird with the enclosure. I don't live that far out in the sticks, but far enough away that this is my only ...

I would also see if Band29 is active, it just started popping here for ATT and its helped quite a bit with CA.

I also have a wg3526 and have used it BOTH with a usb to pcie adaptor (externally) and internal card slot. Use the wifix firmware (its a modified version of goldenorb). Mine is dated 5/16/2020 though I have the NON poe version and am not sure if the firmware will differ for your version. As far as ...

I mostly solved this issue. Mofi has a seperate setting for enabling IPV6 which needed to be turned on to get these settings to change.

actually upon further digging I found the email it got sent to spam, I will update and test.

The USB port simply did not work. I don't know what that was about, but I received the mini-pcie adapter yesterday, so problem solved. Luckily, I already had the MHF4 version of the antenna pigtail connectors, although one of them was too short, so I had to do some rearranging of the antenna ports ...

Thank you Didneywhorl!!
I finally got my nexq6go-m and em12-g to work.I am very very happy.I need band lock commands and ttl settings i think.Im getting low speeds 8mb.

Ok so with above results I am getting an sinr of 13?
Awesome as I am in the mountains and heavily wooded. I would have exp[ected a far worse result

Ok I will just keep monitoring this thread

Can you share more information on the device using Wi-Fi ie type of WiFi

5G has introduced a whole new level of confusion when it comes to aggregation and so forth.

I turned off 5g for the moment due to verizon not having much 5g in my area.

Hello.
Will also say booster not needed for sure for lte data use. I like we826 and em12 and a parabolic antenna for visible.

Here is another example.

This guy used the BIG guns

Would start out small and simple and hardware as needed
The only hard part is the SIM/Data Plan
Some have had luck with getting a data only plan for an iPad

Welcome ericfx1984 Both Didneywhorl and Adm1jtg have given excellent advice. The only thing I can add is you may want to get the WG3526 with the PoE option. Part number WG3526-P, this would give you the option to use power over ethernet. This would allow to put the WG3526-P in an enclosure and be ...

Who knew WiFi was so complicated

Both routers had about the same speed. I got up to around 40mbps once. I had wireless disabled on the NEXQ6GO-M, but enabled it for testing.

Here are the specs from the manual of my Netgear WNDR3400v3:

Found your problem. Looks like you are using a type-N, WiFi or WiFi-4. If you feel the need.... the need for speed ....LoL ...you will need to up your hardware game to WiFi-6 WiFi is sexy, but if you need to do a Zoom call, would use a good old CAT cable. WiFi is half duplex, half as fast as a cable ...

I don't know how tall that mesh reflector is but if it's about 18" higher or less, chances are it is a 5Ghz directional and came from a wi-fi distributor. I'm not sure where they are using such HF bands for cell service (but I don't keep up with the new 5G bands yet that much.) Keep in mind though ...

I did get a copy of it but its for the em7565. Says it will also work on the em7511. Im going to test tomorrow.

FYI
T-Mobile has band 71 4G and
n71 5G they are both using 600MHz

T-Mobile Band n41 is the faster 5G

n71 is 5G low band
n41 is 5G mid band

In a rural setting 600MHz is your friend
Not the fastest but gets the job done

Hello all, When this plan started it was $50 per month. Then increased to $60 per month. That is when I got it at the $60 rate. Now a promotion at $50 again for limited time. Well I called them and asked to have mine lowered. They claim they did it and I will now be charged $50 per month now on ...

I have found with ALL these routers the "built in" wifi is weak. Over and over you will see that most recommend using a seperate dedicated router for wifi use. Personally I use a cheap c8 router even though I have a completely working wg3526. The wifi is simply much better on the c8

I put a 7455 in one and couldn't get it to work. I was able to get it to work with a EM12. I am running OS7. The EC25AF worked as well, but the band locking menu wouldn't populate and have not spent much time on it since given that it is a CAT4 modem. The EM12 seems to be the common go to on other ...

It depends on your location, where I am at its a strong band and with the 7411, I'm seeing it carrier aggregate with Band 2 and 66 giving it quite a boost. I have noticed better tree/forest penetration on band 71 than band 12. Also I have found Band 12 to always be saturated due to the number of ...

Jailbreak it then install tetherme from the app store, there is a crack for that app that is free if you can find it, look in the big boss repo.

Hi guys, I just entered this world hoping that you will help me solve my problems. :o :? I recently moved from the city to a rural place with a very poor internet signal and decided to invest money trying to improve it. It was 4-5 months reading and searching the internet until I got to both ...

Those 'NR5G-NSA' values only indicate that the modem is capable of connecting to 5G and from the numbers you can see that it is not connected (max default values such as 32768, 65535). I see this when I lose the 5G connection. As far as I know vzw only has 5G in very select highly populated city ...

Perfect Didney, I am now with your commands. I will reply about them in the next post

A dedicated wifi AP, like the ubiquiti UAP-AC-LITE-US, only uses max 20W during full load. Might not be as cheap, but the wifi throughput is top notch. I use dedicated access points for my wifi. WAY simpler, and no dual router NAT to turn off and deal with. That works too. I think mine is 18w based ...

Excellent advice, I will try that ASAP! Thank you!

I think I’m going to end up trying out the standalone tablet plan from Att as I tried tmobile test drive and there’s absolutely no signal here. Verizon is throttled like crazy here because it’s pretty much what everyone uses so visible is out of the question. For the att tablet plan can you use like ...

Honestly haven't been impressed with WiFi out of any of the lte routers. Always use access point router anymore. Seen allot of people that struggle with good signal don't see speeds over 100. Right, thats why I was recommending the router with the gigabit ethernet ports. You will never get a FULL ...

Yes this is true the WE826 is a bottle neck. Won't ever go over 100 Mbps. Allot of people say it won't ever go over like 85 Mbps. Have seen like 92 Mbps before out of it. You are completely right it is true. All that was stating is for allot people that isn't an issue since they will never even get ...

Hi again Didney and thanks for passing. I am able to see the wifi SSID but only the 5Ghz, not the 2.4Ghz. I'll do what you recommend and let you know.

Your strongest signal band will not always be your fastest band. On Verizon band 13 will more than likely be the the strongest and the slowest.

Just dont wanna anger anyone.... like i said I like it here and think I can help.

Hopefully you and gscheb dont see me as a trouble maker as i have been known at time to be a little to strong in my opinions and a little to free at expressing them.

Like in the last post on the numbers for lte

Also, using the Network Diagnostics page, ping, traceroute and nslookup all work OK, but I am unable to get internet on my PC. This would confirm that it not on the provider side of things if you can ping/trace/lookup from router to a website such as google or yahoo or similar. Might plug in a ...

Hi again Didney! Well, your commands were close to totally succesfull in my case and now I have internet using both lan and wifi, to be honest through wifi I am seen the 5Ghz net but I am not been able to see the 2.4Ghz (how could I solve this?). So tyvm! WG1608 routers are quite finicky with WiFi ...

Welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, so far as I've seen if there is any Sprint tower signal at all, or bands, the network will only allow you to use them. The Tmobile bands are available, but it seems to prefer the Sprint stuff. You MIGHT get to use the Tmobile only, but I've not seen anyone say ...

It was fixed.
To wrap it up:
EM9191 with USB3M2-5GNANO-ADPT

2, Install new drivers:
