Wireless Joint

This Bloody well wonderful. Thank you Jim.

I'm getting much faster speeds now on b66/b71 (was on b41 which was not even giving me data). Getting one SCC state (was hoping for more but I guess this tower does not support or have, set it to b66,b71,b4,b12

Replying to myself. Found this The list of AT commands: http://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=364&start=10 https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=364

Worked great. THANK YOU @JimHelms for posting this SUPER nice spreadsheet. No more band b41 and much faster speeds, locked it to B66 ...

Anyone else using this band (tmobile)? Antenna/router used to always connect to b66 with CA from b71 or b12 with about the same RSRP/RSSI but higher RSRQ as b41. Today it was b41 has zero internet, resetting it won't switch (at first I thought it was just slower but my load balance was just failing ...

Thank you. Did EVERY single one of these (apart from MBIM composition as didn't know what that was) and it appears to have fixed my ongoing, never ending issues with band b41 dropped with a CAT7 EM7411 / WG3526-P combo. All other bands where fine and was just getting ready to ask for help in ...

Thank you. Very helpful. got a little better RSRQ by moving it around (Grid type).

System mode: LTE PS state: Attached
LTE band: B41 LTE bw: 20 MHz
PCC RxM RSSI: -73 PCC RxM RSRP: -102
RSRQ (dB): -9.1
SINR (dB): 9.2

Now if I can just figure out why the modem keeps disconnecting every few ...

Is this correct (I'm fiddling with my antennas again, just moved spots). Just want to confirm:

Rxm RSSI is the LTE signal strength (primary input)
RxD RSSI is the LTE signal strength (secondary input)
RSRQ (dB): is the signal quality

So I can ignore RxM RSRP db as these are the indoor antennas (i ...

Sounds like it is not possible with the openWRT software on WG3526? That still the case? Should I switch to something else (software wise)?

Edit 2: Will try this: https://wirelessjoint.com ...

Have a mofi 4500 and The Wireless Haven WG3526 load balanced by a TL-R600VPN (cat5 from that to PCs) and then a Wifi5 TP Link 1900AC router for good strong wifi (covers every spot in the home, antennas in LTE routers turned off). Speeds range from 5-20mb (I am a long way from towers/lots of trees ...

The miss matching is not recommended at all, and I do agree with that. But the installs I did, the colleagues insisted on the Bolton and only one. I went vertical alignment with the 2nd yagi.

As far as antenna tilt, I have tested it and have not seen any improvement. Keep in mind I'm usually on ...

Happy to help. I also run a two router setup like you, two routers, one on Tmo and one on ATT. My Tmo router is the same as yours, 3526, Bolton on it, 7411 and I CA 66 with 71 and get great performance.

Hey, the Wilson yagis are 698 if I remember correctly. So if you keep it, you upgrade the ...

If you want to keep band 71 optimized, you don't want to go with the first antenna. The second antenna, the The Wireless Haven 5g Yagi is solid, I have 4 of them and they work great with all bands. I would go that route. I tested the The Wireless Haven 5g yagi against an old 698mhz yagi for band 2 ...

The auto reverse change is doing that. What I do is hard wire up via ethernet. And I set the IP on network interface card on my laptop to dual IP's the one current, example 192.168.1.7 and add an additional IP/subnet mask for say 10.1.1.7/255.255.255.0. Then when the change applies, I just change ...

I tried Network -> Interfaces -> Lan -> General setup _> IPv4 address

But it won't save. Just keeps reverting. Want to change last two numbers so it won't conflict with my wifi router IP logon.

I've done it on Mofi and TLR600VPN, was super easy/intuitive.

TTL 64 or 65 seems to work with T-Mobile ok at this time. It doesn't hide the data use with just TTL it just lets you use it like it's a phone (not hotspot). For T-Mobile anyway they text me a warning with over 50gb of data use (phone use or not) and "can" throttle me during peak hrs/congestion (I ...

2 questions

Question: 1) Running a Bolton 26db + weBoost Signal 4G/LTE Direct Connect Booster on a WG3526 + CAT7 EM7411 (does band b66 with CA from b12 or b71

Just wondering what I'd gain adding a 2nd antenna at this point (if anything). Want to take advantage of MIMO. would love to just use one ...

I'm sure you did this already but make sure it's a 5g band that's worth the hassle / expense. My phone says it's on 5g where I'm at (rural) but it's really just the 600hz band b71 that it's picking up (its not faster then 4gLTE anyway).

One question I do have is TTL, I have it set to 65 (but maybe it should be 66 since it has modem router -> bridge -> PC and modem router -> bridge -> WIFI router -> TV/Phones/Tablets). Will see I guess depending on if "hotspot" data shows up on my plan or not.

You have 3 wan connections? Sounds nice

Dang, just missed this! Thank you though.

If you ever find a working bullet proof solution that actually works please let me know.


Up and running.

Had to mess around with the routers IP connection addresses as I have 2 sim modem routers, this TLR600 for bridge and a ARCHER8 for wifi (strong/good wifi). Overall speeds seem the same ...

This probably won't be helpful to you but after 4 years of using a sim without any issues, in mid-late 2020 I started getting disconnects during peak hrs (on/off/on/off) all the time, what helped me (mostly) was grabbing another tower that was further away (the two close towers I think had ...

If you ever find a working bullet proof solution that actually works please let me know.


Will let you know if it works. Windows bridge seems to work (data usage increased on both when bridged so it is splitting the use) but will have to test with more programs/time to feel out if overall speeds ...

For the bridge/load balance? Thank very much will look at that one (it's cheaper also )

Do you have a duel connection setup with load balancing/bridge? How's it working vs. single? (ie worth it to you?)

So I just upgraded from a mofi4500 to a WG3526(CAT7 EM7411), wifi turned off, LAN port connected WAN port on TP Link AC1900 to PC

Still have the mofi. Have 2 outdoor antennas. Was going to see about leaving 2 sims connected using a bridge/load balancing router (have 7 sim card lines and another ...

Accidental post

Just FYI TTL 65 fixed it. For anyone that runs into something similar after lots of data use on 64 with a setup like mine with router/modem pass to better router.

Hello,

New setup is WG3526(CAT7 EM7411), wifi turned off, LAN port connected WAN port on TP Link AC1900 to PC (and others). Added the TP-link as the WIFI on the WG was really really crappy, weak signal and everything loaded with a initial lag, (TP link fixed both). Former setup was mofi4500v2 to PC ...

Thanks for this helpful post.

My wg3526p was garbage for connection (both strength and responsiveness's). Passing though to a Archer a8 made a WORLD of difference. Download speeds are the same but webpages etc. are WAY more snappy loading.

Did you set the TTL settings? Which plan and carrier? You may be getting hit with speed throttle due to hotspot cap, that the MOFI was set to mask with TTL changes.


Thank you for taking the time to try to help. I redid testing and it came up but still lower. pretty sure due to the band for SCC ...

Hello,

I just switched from a mofi 4500v2 to a WG3526-P + EM7411 CAT-7. I know this thread is titled for MC7455/EM7455 but was hoping the AT! commands are the same with 7411. With the mofi locked to B4 T-Mobile I was averaging 30-32mb down (a 3.5 miles on a hill from tower, as high as 55mb as lower ...
