Im assuming I set up the VPN correctly. However, I am not familiar with configuring the settings. Does anyone know why I dont have internet when VPN is on. Maybe its a Rooter setting but I am not sure.

Heads up for those individuals with corrupt T-Mobile towers. I recently switched from Calyx Institute to a Visible plan and purchased 1 month Visible service which is Verizon towers for testing purposes. I installed my NordVPN to my rooter router. Check out my posting on how to do this in the VPN ...

I dont know what you mean. Can you explain?

Reporting back! I finally got the Sierra Wireless modem 7455 set up with IMEI changed. Connected everything and internet went out just like the Quectel. Over night when I was asleep, the modem lost internet but in rooter it was showing that it was still connected but just didnt have internet. I ...

I'm also using RM502Q-AE with TMO and getting the no data but connected issue. Yesterday was the worst, I would lose data after just 5-10 min after reboot from 7PM to 11PM.

I feel like whatever new DE prioritization algorithm Tmobile is using is screwing up RM502Q-AE. Because it would be fine ...

Hello Wireless Fam,

I have been on the search for a solution to fix my Calyx Institute and T-Mobile random disconnections. I suspect T-Mobile is getting very strict with their internet protocols. In my research to finding a solution to my personal connectivity problem, I have learned quite a lot in ...

@vahnwinkle, as far as I know the T-Mobile Home Internet sims are locked to the device it comes with, didn't want you to waste time getting it and trying it then wondering why nothing is happening.

Edit: No, you can change the identity of the home internet device using the supplied sim card. I ...

Thanks, yea I found that too. Do you look into your debug report when you get disconnected? I am curious what your says? Also, what antennas are you using?

Sorry I'm having different issues than just normal disconnects. When first read this thread I thought it was referencing the 502Q and Tmo ...

How do I check that and I will try? Thanks

Can anyone with a sierra em9191 and T-Mobile confirm Whether they have random disconnections in 2022? I might actually just buy one to give it a try. After like a week of having it work and not disconnecting after I got my external modem enclosure, the problem is back again :(

I believe after everything I have done, I think its a conflict with the Quectel Modem and the T-mobile towers.

It's not explicitly the Quectel Modems, I had the same problem with the Sierra wireless em7565. My guess is something in the software that controls the modem. Need to do some more ...

It sure does seem something recent has changed. I was on a couple different Tmo mvno's until recently and switch to legit Tmo plan. Running an RM500Q-AE, RM502Q-AE and T99W175. Both Quectels seem throttled now. The 502Q won't even connect to 5G anymore, it freezes the modem and it all goes ...

Youd have to modify the m2000 to accept antennas, as the m2000 has its modem inside.

Ive also seen this speed difference on the 5G modems. There is something on the m2000 that the 5G modules just isnt initiating. Still figuring it out.

Thanks for the reply. Yea, their is definitely something ...

I was downloading large data on my WG3526 and Quectel modem, about 150gb.

I removed the T-Mobile sim card and installed it in my Mifi ...

Okay! I am sure this has run through someone's mind before but I haven't seen this question posted anywhere in the forums so here goes. I have a Calyx sustainer membership with a T-mobile sim and MiFi M2000 hotspot that came with the plan. Upon testing the Mifi M2000 using the Tmobile ...

Qflash pulled up showing no COM. My Huawei Terminal is used to identify the current modems COM port but doesn't recognize anything. Do I need to activate the USB port on the WG 1608 to communicate with modem? If so, how? Thanks

I also wanted to add the board I I think I need to upgrade the modem firmware is a EVB board used for developmental purposes but I figured I could use my WG 1608 since it has its own USB port. I just cant get the COM to recognize on my computer in device manager. I had to add it manually.

Thank you so much for your response. Just to clarify, what do you mean by changing modem identity? I thought the IMEI was the identity? I changed the modem IMEI to the MiFi m2000 already and the modem identifies as the MiFi device. If you’re not talking about IMEI change, do you know ...
