Wireless Joint

I am in a fringe area and my 4G two year old tablet plan is having some issues with performance. I have learned that 5G is available in my area for some people so I was wondering if I can just pop the SIM card into my new equipment without having to make an appointment with the store to change ...

I would be interested on this as well. Just received my 7511 a couple of weeks ago and finally got around the other day to firing it up but only briefly to see if I needed to return or not before the window closed. I'd like to find more about it. Bad news that it gets hotter, however.

Hi, is the 7511 required to use the same notes above as seen for the 7565? I have decided to try the 7511 for a travel modem for a while since it still has a full suite of 3G bands still supported (for lower tech countries) but all the 7565 + B14 from what I have read (likely also you :-) so will ...

Are these "good" for the 7511 as well? THANKS!

Did anyone ever discover a source? THANKS!

Thank you!

Those guys drive me nuts. What someone can read in 2 minutes they take 13 to explain. But the youtubers don't get paid with less than 10 minutes of content so we are doomed for life to have to listen to the whole thing .... oh well.... could be worse.

@aphazia What is a "AT&T proxy lockup"? thank you.

@aphazia I was going to say to try one of the home Internet cell services. That is what most Baja full-timers have gone to using Telcel home Internet. You'll get to stop the cat and mouse games with all the phone and hotspot trickery and the loss of service from doing such.

What happened to the test

Well it looks like still a hodge-podge pool of support for the traveler and it may be a contention between the EG12-G and the EM7455 in the backpack, plus add a few specific modems if you demand "above normal" speed .... There still seems to be no such thing as a true universal modem and there may ...

I like the quectel modem line since I know most how to manage via AT commands but I am looking for what would have the widest selection of 4G bands suitable for a long trip through various countries and thus the device would still have 3G GSM-style legacy support. I am not sure if any 5G modems have ...

Not meant to be a wise-ass remark but genuinely curious why with open space available, everyone without question seems to crowd antennas so closely? It seems for ultimate diversity one might split at least the 4 over two seperate router boxes and two seperate poles. Also wonder why everyone always ...

I would make a matrix chart of all the bands each carrier uses and then find a phone that covers at least one of each band. And the location may be band dependent too so watch out for that. Sometimes older iPhones are good because traditionally owners of them have high turnover, always having to ...

I am interested in this. Is the free account capable of occasionally linking into to a remote LTE network to run (e.g.) RealVNC on a LTE attached Windows desktop, like OpenVPN provides? If the answer is yes, using RPi3 with GO as my main router, can it be added to the Pi3 or should I upgrade to a Pi ...

"Some of the data accessed did include customers’ first and last names, date of birth, SSN, and driver’s license/ID information for a subset of current and former postpay customers and prospective T-Mobile customers.

Do you have any Internet access at all now, is the MiFI 8000 working? What facility is providing your VOIP service? Where and how did the GT784 come into the picture and what are you using it for. What hardware device serves as your VOIP device; Is it a wired LAN device such a a Linksys SPA-2102 or ...

I don't know how tall that mesh reflector is but if it's about 18" higher or less, chances are it is a 5Ghz directional and came from a wi-fi distributor. I'm not sure where they are using such HF bands for cell service (but I don't keep up with the new 5G bands yet that much.) Keep in mind though ...

I will be traveling through US, MX & Latin America plus short visits to EU and Australia, is the EM12 a good overall choice and are there any "gotchas" using a m.2 to usb case running on a cheap Golden Orb travel router? I see there are two style cases sold, USB 2/3 and it appears the modem supports ...

Hi, little ideas grace my head from time to time and this one passed by me this morning and I went searching and was delighted to find your offering here. Thanks! I read most of this but I didn't see anything saying what the dimensions of this board are, and if I missed it I apologize. I'm mobile ...

This one has possibilities but it's a lot of money to experiment with ...

RESOLVED:
The problem was actually with Consumer Cellular who is a MVNO of AT&T. I had been using the very same router, the same Rooter firmware, the same modem and the same SIM card since 2015 (last upgraded firmware of router in 2017). Everything stopped working on 2021, April. The strange thing ...

I drove to another city 22 miles away today to test the modems and rooter firmware in another location. Same results with same exact scenario. I had my new "out of the box router" flashed with the latest March Rooter firmware with an EP06-A and the other test router is the one I have been using ...

I am on Consumer Cellular (ATT MVNO) and I have my phone SIM in a Sierra 320U modem and that plugged into a GoldenOrb build on my router that I have been using like this for a good 4 years. I was offline the month of April, fired it up 2 days ago and while it will connect, the router won't route ...

This whole TTL setting is new to me. I have been using Rooter with USB modems since it's inception, but is this something that I need to worry about? I just upgraded to a EP06 myself but in a USB enclosure for a regular moded router. Thanks

Regarding the Rooter gang, I have asked those guys repeatedly why they won't covert from that old Linux mailing list stile to a modern BBB like here and the best reason they could offer was "this one is comfortable". You pretty much have to have a memory like a Google data center, the patience of ...

Regarding the antenna jumper style in build your own USB board setups based on a Rooter router, is there any significant advantage to using a larger coax for the 6" pigtail coming off the modem card than the micro thin (sorry too lazy to try to find the coax number and I tend to forget over time ...
