Wireless Joint

It seems I do get signal so I just can't get internet going. I ran an AT command that showed me about 4 different ratings of signal so I guess I'm good there

I got my antennas and installed them. No go still.

How can I even tell if my modem is okay? I did an update on my EM12G modem that Quectel Tech sent me via USB drive.
I then did this.

I found that you also need to run the following command before setting right APN:
CODE: SELECT ALL
AT+CGDCONT=1 ...

Dear KZ Audio
This is Ketn from Quectel team, I’m glad to support you.
It seems that there is something wrong with the communication between the SIM and the module. Therefore, please install the USB driver of the module at first.

@Didneywhorl when I get them in if I can’t get it going I’ll make sure and hit you up brother. Thanks for all the help so far

Richard Jones from Wireless Joint FB page helped me figure out I have the wrong antennas. When I swapped antenna pigtails I guess the stock antennas don’t work anymore. Looks like they are both female and I need my antenna to be male. Ugh. I was hoping I wasn’t that dense

Do I have the wrong antennas? A fella from Wireless Joint FB page said since I changed out the pigtails for the antennas that the ones that came with it don’t work anymore. Is this my problem?

@Didneywhorl also, glad to heat Quectel and Visible have been working for others. So there is hope. I've become pretty proficient at locating things on the setup so hopefully we can get this bad boy going soon

@Didneywhorl I'm using the round thin antennas that have the LTE stickers on them. Came with the unit. When I put the SIM in my iPhone 7 I have 2 to 3 bars of LTE at any given time. I don't think that reception is an issue. Where should I go to see if I can/should be seeing some kind of sign of life?

@Didneywhorl I've been reading through posts and it seems several people are having issues with Quectel and Visible. Have you noticed this? I spoke to sales at The Wireless Haven before I purchased the setup and the rep said this was a good setup so I ordered it. I guess I'm doing something wrong ...

Should I throw a Sprint sim in this bad boy? If I should where can I find the AT commands to configure EM12 to Sprint?

@hw1353 I have a EM12G and Visible. Haven't been able to get it working. Can you maybe post what you did to make it work? I've been messing with this for 3 days and could use some direction. Thanks for any help

@gscheb thanks, I'll give it a try. If that doesn't work can I pull my sim out of my iPhone (Sprint) and try that?

I returned the MoFi and am not sure how to do a band search on the NEXR5GO. I'm sure it's done with an AT command though

Someone said the APN might be wrong but not sure what it's supposed to be

My MoFi showed I had 2,4, maybe 5, maybe 13 and 66. I think 2 and 4 worked best at my house.

How do you check? I guess I have to be connected to LTE to test that though right?

@Didneywhorl yes sir. I was using TTL 65 at first and couldn't get anything over 5 I switched to 64 and got up to 10-11 sometimes. I've seen people get speeds on the 4500 in the 30s-40s but never broke 9-10. I can get 30 in my iPhone 7 with the sim. I was told the iPhone had a way better processor ...

Just out of curiosity and no disrespect but I've been reading a few posts of people not being able to get their setups going. Is there a chance I'll be able to get mine working? If not I need to order something that works out of the box. This is all foreign to me. I'm an AV and Security guy so I ...

This is what I'm running

@Didneyworhl -Thanks for the response. I was reading your thread with the other fella that has the Cricket plan and ran those AT commands you told him to try for the APN I thin? Anyway, I got the same results as him on that.

I have used the same sim in a MoFi 4500 and it worked but was slow. I now ...

That was a copy and paste. I've not spoken to Yipzy

Hey guys,

I really need some help before I throw my setup in the lake.

Here is what I've done:

Yipzy helped me to get my EP06 and EM12 to work on Visible.
This is what I did. Should be same process for EC25-AF

Before you start this might want to set back to OEM state if you been putting other ...

@gscheb thanks man I'll give it a try

I did all the AT commands @Didneywhorl listed. I still have no internet. Any other ideas folks? Quite frustrated at this point. I know nothing about programming this setup and really need some help.

@Didneywhorl so you're speaking a foreign language to me but I know where to plug in the AT Commands. So if I go through and input all of those then I should be up and running? Thanks for all the help. I entered the first command and it sat for a while and said waiting for response. I don't know how ...

I thought I already posted this but can't find it.

I just got my modem installed in my router. Using Visible SIM. I had this in a MoFi 4500 so it's activated.

I have no clue where to go from there. Is there a tutorial that will tell me what to do next. I have no internet at the moment. I know how ...

Instead of searching high and low, is there a place where I can learn all the programming specs for this guy? Band Info, TTL, AT-Comands etc. Id love to learn this stuff but I returned my MoFi 4500 today and would like to get this bad boy setup quickly. Looking for Cliff's Notes for now if there are ...

@gscheb thanks for the info.

@Didneywhorl I should be receiving my NEXR5GO and EM12 tomorrow. I saw where you said to go to change TTL but you didn’t tell me what setting to use. I’ve been talking to Mitch at The Wireless Haven and he was super helpful on ordering the parts but didn’t know or possibly couldn’t tell me what ...

Nevermind, I found it.

How do you change the TTL on the 4500? Thanks

@Didneywhorl Does this setup have the capability to, I guess, hide that it's a router and look like a cell phone. On the 4500 there's a setting to make it look like it's a cell phone.

Thanks again

Thanks brother, I'll order these parts ASAP. Thanks so much for the quick response.

Hi guys,

Thanks in advance for the help.

I can insert my Visible sim card into my iPhone 7 and pull data speeds of 25-30 down. When I insert the sim into my 4500 sim7 and test all bands the most I can get is about 12 down. I tried all bands that were available 66 was my fastest band. I'd love to ...
