Wireless Joint

So After the Reset to factory, it started working again at the house on house power. I let it run all week.
I did upgrade the inverter as well on the solar systems. from a 150 watt modified sine wave to a 300 watt Pure sine wave.
so far it's been working for 2 days without the issue. So I think it ...

ATT- so i did a factory reset, and so far its still working.
since some of the later firmware updates on the 826 i haven't had any wifi issues. I have many of these.
Also have a neighbor that i support as well.
So unfortunately I didn't get a cable plugged into it before I reset it.
The other ...

So maybe someone can explain this so connected via wifi I can get to the router just fine, the router can do the speed test and looks like its connecting.

Thanks but no joy, tried that. its really strange no mater what domain i put in the tests it connects. its just not letting wifi through. I will have to walk up there and see if it does the same for hard wired. I did go through and disable firewalls in the router etc.. with no change. even ...

Well from the router it is connected , I was able to reach the test sites under diagnostics. Every VPN I have tried just brings my connections to a crawl. I tried really hard one weekend to set the VPN up from the router with no luck. I didn't want to run VPN on every device i own. I really feel its ...

So I just had a thought, so the router seems to ping the DNS just fine because the connection monitoring is staying up. Could this be a firmware issue between Wifi and the router?

I think I have asked this before but cant find the Thread.

I have an issue with a EM12 it connects up fine with very strong signal. 100% actually.

it will work for about 15 or 20 mins , stays connected but then just will not connect to the internet.

Usually takes a power off and on to get it to ...

So I think i got it,

So I have two modems an EM12 and an EM20 both on WE826GO routers.

Just recently they both can no longer connect to anything 4g. Once I set the Cellular mode to Auto then I can connect to a cell. It doesn't say what mode it is

AT+QNWINFO
+QNWINFO: "HSPA+","310410","WCDMA 850",4385

its really slow ...

ok i found the settings , we'll see how it goes.. Thanks!

actually i see it on both wired and wireless connections.
Im not quite understanding where to set a DNS on the router for wifi.
I have tried setting them to 8.8.8.8 on my pc and made no difference.
i will read the thread further but not sure it fits my router.

So I'm having a strange issue were my modem is connected to a strong signal but all devices can only get to Google sites. When this happens on some devices they talk about disabling ipv6 I thought it was ipv6 where they have you disable it on your device to fix the issue, this is happening on Macs ...

Fyi both of those error out as well, starting to regret this modem purchase. It was working fine for about a month, we pretty impressed , then it just stopped connecting. now without many commands to see whats going on im at a loss. its just stuck on connecting, it sees the sim code but never ...

so now you tell me after i spend $$$ on the EM20
i'm running on the M and M1 and it seems ok.
sometimes augmenting still on three antenna.
and FYI

just a follow up on my situation.
I purchased the EM20 and it really works great, however after a month or so , it started switching to the lower speed cell id again.

I've look through the rest of the posts and was able to run the

AT+QENG="servingcell"
+QENG: "servingcell","NOCONN","LTE","FDD ...

On the EM20 there are 4 Connections
M M1 M2 and D/G

if only running two antenna's which should I use?

Is there any benefit of running 3 ? or does it have to be 2 or 4?

Is there a command to see the signal strength of each antenna?

My old Sierra modem had a nice status comannd that showed that ...

sorry i guess this is under routers and should be under modems

Thank you Sir!!! total joy and 30 meg downloads with just stock antennas!!!

So I rolled back the Firmware , Im running
GoldenOrb_2019-03-10

i added the startup command

and I get further, now at least it connects to the modem and has the modem type listed

but I keep getting these errors now

so I'm having this same issue, just downloaded the latest Golden Orb for my ZBT-WE826 (16M) with EM20-G
it sees under the device information, but I can not make any AT commands to it.

I added to the startup what you have here.
I also went to the other thread and made the custom port settings as ...

found the adapter and ordered the EM12 thanks!!

ok so these are not mini pci. so, what router do they fit in?

Your least expensive modem option with specific cell-ID/channel locking capability would be a Quectel EP/EM06-A (CAT-6), followed by the EM12 (CAT-12), EM20 (CAT-20), via the AT+QNWINFO and AT+QENG commands.
Also a highly directional Yagi antenna should prevent the modem to lock onto the slower ...

the yagi's dont seem to find the sweet spot. both cells are the same power. I just think they are switching it on me

As Didneywhorl has mentioned the Quectel EM20 can (though I haven't tried it) and some other high end models by SIMCOM. Keep in mind these are pretty expensive (in the $200-300 range). What's likely happening, is that you are between two towers with both broadcasting on band #2, and your modem is ...

Didneywhorl if you have any info on the Sierras that would be great, thats what I'm looking for.
thanks

when it switches again I'll post those results
fyi i also have tried another sim card and get the same issue.

ya so locking to just the band doesn't work. the band 2 works the best when it stays on cell id 10(0A) i can get the full cell id using status but in the gui that's what is says. It will stay on band 2 but switch to a different cell ID 9 still on band 2. I have tried all the aggregation combos ...

Im sorry if this has been asked, ive done lots of research and just cant find the answer.

I am currently using a MC7455 in a ZBT-WEB826 Router using Golden Orb firmware.

I have found how to set the Band to the one I want and that has been working fine for over a year now.

all of a sudden I keep ...
