Wireless Joint

Good news. Flashing the firmware a second time seems to have restored all factory defaults.

I was trying to coerce my LM960A18 into playing nicely with my shiny new Mikrotik HAP ac2. The last thing I said to it was "AT#USBCFG=3" and since then its refused to talk to me :(

I read the manual (after nuking it of course) that not all modes provide an AT command ability and that seems to ...

any progress on this @OhYou_

How do these figures look, getting uploads up 10mbps and downloads of 70mpbs with my two panel antennas connected with LMR400. I'm not sure how to tell if I'm using both antennas though so need to spend some time reading manuals.

Just sharing back for community (although will put a more detailed post up when Im finished testing).
With the omnidirectional antenna I see 11 down, 1 up, with the 15db flat panel literally thrown up and randomly pointed in the rough direction I see 28down, 9 up! This is just with a single panel ...

Could you explain why band 14 is so important Bill please? Isn't B14 reserved for first responders and therefore not for use by regular consumers? Should regular consumers keep clear of B14 to prevent obstructing or delaying emergency services?

Received 2 700-2700MHz 15dBi 4G LTE Directional Antennas and 2 698-2700MHz 6dBi-8dBi 4G LTE Omni Antennas for testing. Also have an external enclosure so I can move my router closer to the antennas and reduce some cable loss too.

Thanks Bill, I tried that but this does appear to be a limitation of passthrough as linked to by hazarjest above. Its not critical but would have been nice to have had ping and SNMP output but the internal interfaces aren't available when in passthrough mode.

I use and do this which has worked well enough.

I found a SMA converter today that adapted my RP SMA to enable me to test and my connection immediately came up with the em7565. I verified it works with the standard EM7455 modem as well and my speeds have improved to 20mbps down, and 4mbps up. I'm not seeing the same upload performance on my ...

hmmm, Its actually hard to tell because the view is obstructed by trees! Heres the view from the roofline in the direction of the cell tower Im connecting too. I'm guessing its a few hundred meters away.

Looking at that terrain profile, and those trees, I clearly need the "magic ...

Thanks Jim, got some cables inbound to verify the modem is configured correctly.
I'll also order up some new antennas, I would like your opinion on what I should order from your store for the best chance of getting a workable signal in my situation. No line of sight to mast, and pretty heavy foliage ...

I've just trying connecting my cradlepoint white ear antennas which at least have the right connector to my em7565 and get these figures (although appears to be stuck in 'attaching' mode which I suspect is due to poor signal reception).

OK, I think Ive found the problem, user error as expected :-)
The cable which comes from the weBoost to the SMA connector has a female connector, and the connector on the adapter I got from your store also has female.
The cheap enclosures I used previously from Amazon were male.

With the only antenna connected to Aux, these are the stats

PCC RxM RSSI: -93 PCC RxM RSRP: -125
PCC RxD RSSI: -40 PCC RxD RSRP: -67


and with only antenna connected to main, these are the stats (I rebooted and moved the connector across)

PCC RxM RSSI: -77 PCC RxM RSRP: -108

My antenna setup is far from optimal, and why I wanted to take a look to see if i could improve this setup.
I live in a canyon and reception frankly sucks. Currently I have been able to get 1mbps up, and about 5 mbps down reliable with the CBA8500LP6. I'm fully expecting to be purchasing a pair of ...

I had broadband set as APN, as per screenshot
My external antenna is connected only to Main currently but will go and verify the signals etc.

I occasionally have to resort to a backup internet connection when my primary cable connection fails. I live in a canyon so my reception is dreadful. I wanted to see if I could improve this failover connection by relocating the CBA850 to the roof, installing a better modem and a pair of more capable ...

Thank you for signing up and sharing that information, I had spent an evening on it and just couldn't work it out. I was wondering if it was some asymmetrical routing where traffic would go in port1, and be returned on port0 but no, I didn't see them anywhere. I tried putting some NAT type stuff in ...

I followed the excellent Cradlepoint CBA850LP6 Introduction | Installation Options thread and have my CBA850-LP6 modem configured and working correctly with my pfSense router. I'm able to connect and control the admin interface without problem.

Before I finalize the router configuration and mount ...

Thanks for the additional perspective Jim. You touch on what caused me concern when you said " the only downside that I can see is not having software updates to the Cradlepoint software and Modem firmware (which may be updated manually via PC and Sierra firmware, or configured and updated via the ...

I've recently purchased a CB850 based on general support and excellent community experience offered here. In the process of updating firmware, I stumbled across this article. I haven't seen it mentioned here (apologies if I missed it). The subscription service isn't cheap at something like $180 per ...
