Wireless Joint

Purchased the WG3526 and installed the Sierra Wireless MC7455.

Have since switched to a modem that will pick up band 71 installed in old MOFI router (i like the form factor )

Asking $175 obo.

I have a ZBT WG3526 that has an EM7455, GoldenOrb installed.

I'm in the process of upgrading so I'm still using my MOFI 4500 sim7 so I can pick up band 71.

The tower nearest me just bumped B71 from 5mhz to 10mhz.

My download speeds have more than doubled.

This was a pleasant surprise.

LTE Band : B71 (Bandwidth 10 MHz Down | 10 MHz Up)

I've not been able to track down ...

Just remember if using band 71 make sure your external antennas support the 600mhz range, many start at 700 and work their way up


I have 1 antenna now that supports the 600mhz range. The others are in the 700mhz range because I was primarily using B12 prior to B71 becoming available in my area ...

Last time I spoke with someone at MOFI (June-ish ) they had mentioned Sept/Oct as the target release date for the 5500. I guess with everything going on that got pushed back significantly.

I just flashed r00ter to my unused mofi4500 SIM4. I'm going to play around with that a bit as a way to start learning some of this stuff. I think want to squeeze as much speed as I can out of my in the sticks location.

Thanks for the reply. I have 1 antenna that will pick up band 71 it's this one: https://www.signalboosters.com/bolton-t ... l-antenna/

I may start with cracking open the SIM4 that I have to check out the innards and see about flashing custom firmware(?)

I live in quite a rural area and have found a setup that I can "get by" with.

I started with the MOFI4500 SIM4 with an unlimited TMobile business plan through a reseller. Used it mostly on Band 12 speeds usually hovered right around 7-8Mbps.

When TMobile turned on Band 71 I "upgraded" to the ...
