Wireless Joint

Hi I'm new to 4G LTE hacking. I just ordered a bunch of equipment from The Wireless Haven and now am trying to be a bit preemptive with my knowledge. I found out my MC7455 modem has a IMEI which led me down a bit of a rabbit hole. I have the BYOD Sprint plan unlimited data activated and was ...

No need to thank, just help someone else when you can. To answer your question, the thumbs up button gives thanks.

You do not place a # in front if you wish the line to be active. Mine below is not set to 117, but as example mine is like:

So, about 3 months ago, I had a trip coming up with a lot of down time, so I took the (826), with a NEW HP win 10 lapto p, ran some movies through it, and then checked my Verizon account—and dang, it was using (hotspot data) really!! So I tried both wifi, and hard wired to router, same thing ...

oh well it's working.

It's probably saving it in the system, just not displaying it once it's rebooted. All that matters is that it works.

My three set ups never went in the tablet. Was directly put into router device.

WiFix NexQ6GO-U with a Quectel EC25AF inside completely setup and ready for your ATT, Verizon, or T-Mobile (BAND 71!!!!) SIM card. ;)

No assembly of anything needed, other than inserting your SIM card with care.


WiFi speeds have tested as fast as LAN speeds on these!

This is brand new ...

Are the other two providers' speeds really bad compare to T-Mobile? You should've used a phone to test for more accurate results or if you are still able to since the phone will have a better modem and CA combos to test.

I just want to chime in on RockyinNM's post.


I just wanted to share my ...

Currently, CA is supported through one tower with multiple bands. I read technology is there for CA on multiple towers but not activated in general. There is no intraband CA for B13. You will get CA on tower 2, either via 4+13 or better yet 66+13 if modem supports band 66. It depends if your ...

Ok, so I'm going to post a butt ton of pictures here on how I put together a WG3526-P Router w/Sierra MC7455 Modem inside a DM25X19 Antenna. The pictures will be posted on this thread as a series of posts instead of one SUPER long single posting.

NOTE: It is recommended to build and configure the ...

Now we take off the antenna connections

More to come.... Bare with me.

Getting started with the Router body. We gut the router...

Here are a few of the things needed to get going, already listed above.

Here's a list of currently available unlimited prepaid plans for mobile routers


1. ATT

ATT iPad/tablet plan $35/mo, 30Mbps speeds, 40ms latency, deprioritized after 30GB, has been discontinued.

I went back to my T-Mobile card because my Verizon data limit before throttling was reached. I have unlimited on both cards, but apparently the T-mobile card from OTR mobile doesn't get throttled. So, You're saying to put the Verizon card back in and change the TTL as stated above? I will research ...

Sure! I used this setup for nearly two years. Near the beginning of the year I upgraded to a Quectel EM20G modem and added a second panel, since the EM20G modem can do 4x mimo. The Quectel has had quirks, but its fast and works well. The MC7455 was great, except the MC7455 does not like to run ...

Hello,
Currently using this set up. Like the Quectel modems. No the modem is not an upgrade from the MC7455. The router is due to it has better lan port and can get downloads out of the lan ports exceeding 100 down. But if you are not getting connection that is exceeding 100 down then no there would ...

More speed is more fun!


A few things....

1. Your phone has a Category 20 LTE modem with a 4x4 mimo antenna setup and full power blasted to the thing. Your mc7455 in your mofi is a category 6 modem and uses a single pair of antenna connectors you have connected to what sounds like a pair of ...

All, just in case anyone has same question, I recieved some help from BillA on this forum and he advised to do the following:

On the router go to Network > Interfaces > LAN > EDIT > Common Configuration > General Setup > IPv6 assignment length > select "disabled", then click Apply & Save. Restart ...

I would imagine so if others didn't have problem with it. It's also the reason you are leaking hotspot data.


OK. So here's the update so that maybe it can help someone else. I did not have to reflash. What I did have to do was some trial and error with my custom rules thanks to some posts on ...

If you open it up and look at the modem. The wire going to the M on the modem is the main.

Ever wonder if video streaming is being throttled.

This document addresses the issue that some may find of interest.

In my experience, most mobile carriers do throttle video streams.

I did say a little sketchy :?

Yes you did.
Wen I first started this would only use resellers. Thought it was the "right" thing to do. Was ran thru the ringer with them. Their membership fees and what not. Pay a member ship fee get a T-Mobile plan and then it got slowed down allot. More than ...

Believe that is a MC7455 thing. It always wants a power cycle. Noticed have to do power cycle after changes like band configuration for example.

My only thought on this is that if the seller has 0 transactions, don't buy! I know ebay has consumer protections and all that, but it's still the hassle of getting a refund.

Taking the "EC20EQAR02A13E2G" off the modem itself and cross referencing it comes up as a cat 3 with 100mbps DL max, with no ...

Hello,
Recently had issues with the new openwrt stuff not having certificate done. Had to use chrome put in the 192.168.1.1 then will get error. Have to go to advanced in the window of the error and say go anyway.
Also do a control and F5 before hand while in chrome.
Hope maybe this helps.

Hello,
Instead of TTL try to set custom rules.
Tab right next to custom TTL
Also unselect the custom TTL
Paste this in there

#startTTL

HI your welcome
So many people scamming these days, beware of them.
Nice forum here, I will try to find some time to thumb thru some threads today.

Ok so I understand now how to set the bands now thanks to this!! I'm wanting to set my own but how would I go back to default (using all available bands) without resetting everthing? sorry i'm new to this lol and can you choose which is the main band to use out of the 3 bands I'd like to use? I'm ...

Is it just losing connection, or is the modem rebooting/resetting?


Checking your logs again, it looks like you have the connection monitor on and it is resetting your modem when ping no longer responds.

You also have the NWSCANMODE set to 0, which allows non LTE connections. I usually set mine to ...

Not sure of changes. But over a year out is a bit dated. You can always put it back.

Ill dig up the mbim stuff.

MBIM fix only decreases ping. That's all, as far as I know.

The newer firmware versions fix the MBIM ping issue, though you can manually fix it if you want.


Otherwise....

Use AT commands to change it.

You may want to disable the EM12 from automatically detecting it:

AT+QMBNCFG="AutoSel",0

then

AT+QMBNCFG="Deactivate"


To manually set the APN on the EM12:

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IPV4V6","APN-NAME-HERE"
and
AT+CGDCONT=3,"IPV4V6","SAME-APN-NAME-HERE"

Make sure you ...

copy and paste the commands into the client you are using to send modem AT commands to either the modem port or the AT port if your device has an AT port.
Put your apn in-between them, so if you are using say vzw it would look like this
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IPV4V6","VZWINTERNET"
that command would set ...

Rich has you covered. Either copy paste from here, or open up a simple text editor like the simple Notepad app and type it there. Windows makes the slanted dbl quotes on Rich Text Formal word processing apps like MSWord and WordPad etc.

The Wireless Haven contacted me and helped resolve the issue. Great support from those folks. The solution ended up requiring me to execute= the AT+QMBNCFG="Deactivate" command. Not exactly sure why the first 4 systems I built didn't need it though.

Dude that is such a rare modem! Man I love my EM20s! There aren't many out there that are still working (abused lil guys!), and damn few for sale now.

I have two still, or I'd snatch it!

People, don't pass on this.

No secret, it was just a simple powerful modem.
