WG3526-P deafult VLAN settings

Can someone tell me what the default VLAN settings are in the WG3526-P router? When I originally got the modem 2 years ago I set it up for PoE but I no longer want PoE on the WAN or want WAN as part of the LAN network. Below are my current settings via Jim's PoE setup tutorial.

Re: Issues with AT&T. Need to switch to something else

Update:

I called AT&T and ordered another $20 unlimited tablet plan. This time I gave them a IMEI of an iPad Pro (A2014). I received the SIM but it was not activated. Took me a total of 8 hours and 10 separate calls to AT&T to get them to activate the SIM. Finally I got with a sweet lady in ...

Re: Issues with AT&T. Need to switch to something else

You know what? Could it be that I gave AT&T the IMEI of my old iPad that has limited LTE bands? I know for a fact I was on band 2 when I had the prepaid iPad plan. I never had to provide an IMEI with that plan but I did have to give one for the new Postpaid plan. I see the IMEI I provided doesn't ...

Re: Issues with AT&T. Need to switch to something else

I have not tried to set it to LTE only. I'm pretty sure if I do it wont even connect but at this point it's worth a shot. I'll have to research how to do that.

My signal is normally 60+% but thats when it was connected to LTE.

I haven't changed a thing with my router, modem or antennas for a year ...

Can you post your modem stats so I can see what yours says against mine? Mine has been stuck in HSPA+ for 3 days now and the tech said it should be.

Before I got AT&T I briefly had Verizon. I have great cell coverage with Verizon but the LTE was very slow. 5 down was the max I ever got. When I switched to AT&T my speeds went through the roof. I have yet to try Tmobile however they said I have 14 days to try it, if I dont like it they will refund ...

Issues with AT&T. Need to switch to something else

Hi there. I like many others had the $35 AT&T iPad prepaid plan and it was cut off 2 weeks ago. I have since been looking for a replacement solution. I found that a handful of users on here recommended to switch from the $35 prepaid plan to the $20 postpaid plan. Well that sounded too good to be ...

Re: Omni directional MIMO antenna setup

So I took the router outside on the deck and my signal strength went for 51% to 74%

51% speedtest = 63Mbps DOWN \ 10Mbps UP

74% speedtest = 96Mbps DOWN \ 27Mbps UP

Re: Omni directional MIMO antenna setup

I just used my best judgment. The only way I get clear line of site is if I put my antennas on a 100ft pole and the the cell tower was 200ft high. even that would still have lots of thick forestry in the way. I drive out to the tower and it doesn't look that tall to me. Looks like like somewhere ...

Omni directional MIMO antenna setup

I have searched the forum but did not come up with much info on this subject.

I am in a secluded area in a valley with no line-of-site to my AT&T tower that is 2 miles away. My current setup is a WG3526 with a EM7565 with these antennas:

Re: WG3526-P \ EM7565 slow speeds


Some AT&T users are being shut down?

I figure that AT&T knows what is going on, but they are making money, so they don't care. It keeps people away from their competitors. And with deprioritization, it shouldn't affect other customers, so a win-win for everyone.

But I do wonder if the landscape ...

It's been really dry here for the past week. No real weather changes. One thing I am noticing though is when the internet feels more solid it shows it's connected to B13. When it's CA's with B4 is when it slows down to a crawl.
