Re: New ZBT WG1608 5G-ready router + GoldenOrb firmware
Most sub-5GHz modems come with 5 or 6 antenna connectors, and up to 14 on mmWave modems. You can run it on a minimum of one pair (ANT0 /1) which will only pick up 4G, however for 5G you need to connect a second pair (ANT2/3). The third pair (ANT4/5) is used for GPS, therefore it's not absolutely ...

Re: New ZBT WG1608 5G-ready router + GoldenOrb firmware
I wouldn't worry about the modem's firmware too much, they usually come with a production version anyway. If you want to be a guinea pig for the latest bleeding edge version with possible bugs, it's probably best to contact the manufacturer directly to send you the latest package (flasher and ...

Both the Quectel RM500Q-AE and Simcom SIM8200EA-M2 work equally well in the WG1608 router with the latest firmware (no scripting required). Here's the latest firmware dated 2021-01-15:

Re: Calyx T-Mobile Roaming
Well if stilling having sprint bands is the issue maybe could try blocking out the sprint bands. Might trick it into connecting to roaming on T-Mobile

Re: Configuring SIM8200EA
On the Rooter forums there were several post from jheld talking about the module. He has written 2 updates to the existing modemsignal.sh and celltype.sh files, as well as two scripts to add the Simcom responses to the appropriate fields in Network Information. If you want to see what I did, take ...

And once again, I can't stress enough the importance of choosing the right modem for your particular network.
The most popular modems in the US are the Quectel EM12-G (4G), EM16-G (EM160R 4G), RM500Q-AE (5G) and the Simcom SIM7912G-M2 ...

Try running the latest firmware version WG1608-GO2020-12-02, it usually contains bug fixes.

Re: WE826GO-U not detecting the modem(EM7511)
The easiest solution to carrier blocking is to tether a cheap Android phone to a mobile router via a usb cable which will mask it from the carrier, and there's nothing they can do about it. You can even get a used 5G phone on Amazon or Ebay for less than a new 5G modem. Dairyman is currently ...

Re: WE826GO-U not detecting the modem(EM7511)
As a general reference. Your above pictures show the router is seeing the modem just fine for general purposes, but for some reason the AT command port is missing. This is on the modem, not the router. the router looks in a specific spot for the AT commands and no where else. If that port has been ...

Re: AER1600 speed and upgrading concerns
The modem inside is a Telit LM960 modem if I recall correctly. It is'nt 5G ready as far as I know. For the AT commands you'll have to go with those. I';m fairly certain the ATTERM is a function of the router and will likely work fine with that modem.
I would go with a full set of antennas, 4 ...
