Wireless Joint

Hey folks,

I have a WG3526 with WiFix installed and a Sprint SIM, I recently purchased a Verizion MiFI 8800l and I was wondering is anyone has set up multiwan either with or without usb tethering. I have tried both wireless and via usb and I cannot figure it out for the life of me. Any insight ...

I have not had a chance to put it into the connection monitoring script, but I did create a simple shell script to run it from the custom command line, and it brings it back online instantly.

I went out and got the verizon prepaid plan also (i travel alot), and swapped the sim, it stays up all the ...

I have been travelling for work, so i set it to band 25 before I left, since that never has issues. I am testing today, and will post back if I find out anything.

--edited to add the timing of the issue info--

I don't know yet, with DHCP there is typically a lease expire time set when an IP is assigned. Some days, it will run for up to 16 hours with no issue at all then it will drop off multiple times in a row, sometimes as short as 15 minutes in between. I ...

I have been having the same Sprint disconnection issues over the last few months that you are describing. I have since done a bit more troubleshooting to see if I can narrow down where the problem may lie. I have noticed the same behavior in the screenshots that have been posted in this thread ...

I am currently trying to see if just forcing udhcpc service to release and renew the ip causes the connection to come back.

#!/bin/sh

# get pid of udhcpc
PID=`pidof udhcpc`
#release dhcp lease
/bin/kill -SIGUSR2 $PID
# renew dhcp lease
/bin/kill -SIGUSR1 $PID

So to give a bit of background, I have been having a terrible time with Sprint dropping connectivity. I have found that the actual LTE connection remains, but somehow the IP traffic is not being passed. When this happens, a simple "ifdown wan1 && ifup wan1" brings the connection back very quickly ...

Is there a way to just reset the wan1 interface instead of the modem? I have found if I manually reset just the wan1 interface, the connection comes back very quickly, with only a few packet drops.
