Wireless Joint

Alright, got the MC7455 set up and it's much improved. Currently at 9 mbps up from 2 mbps. Next I'll try to figure out exactly which tower I'm connecting to and get a better antenna setup. Thanks again for your help.

I don't think so. I guess I should get an MC7455 instead of this and try to resell the EM7565. Pretty unfortunate.

Well, it appears there is no band 41 here. I can connect to band 26 though somehow this set up with an external antenna is slower than the Franklin R910. Somehow I'm getting an incredible 1 mbps down with this whereas I can sometimes get 3 mbps down with the r910.

Alright, I got it to connect finally after playing with the antennas:

I'm going to go through the connections from the modem out this evening. Hopefully it's just an antenna issue.

I checked that last night too, I received:

Thanks. Now it's recognizing the modem and sim card. However, I'm not getting any connection.

I'll do that this evening and report back.

I just received the hardware today (EM7565 and WG3526) and I installed the modem into the router using a m.2 to pcie mini adapter. I then flashed the router to the latest version of goldenorb but it is not recognizing the modem at this point. I read a bit about using putty but am worried about ...

Looks good. Any ideas on getting the EM7565 working well with the WG3526 LTE CAT6? Would your custom ROOTer translate well over to it?

I just signed up for calyx also, so hopefully they're as good as everyone says. I've also been looking into getting a better modem/router through The Wireless Haven but was wondering what exactly you gain from that- just better signal (both cell tower and wifi at home) I assume?
