I am having an issue with my NEXP1GO with a RM520N-GL internally mounted. The issue is that no matter how much bandwidth is available, I cannot get anything more than around 250 Mbps. I'm on T-Mobile Magenta Max phone plan. I have the same plan on my Galaxy S23+. On the S23+ I can pull 900-1100 Mbps ...

My experience has been with both 5G-NR SA and NSA connections. SA connections have lower ping that is typically more consistent. Speeds vary depending on the equipment on the tower and backhaul to the tower. As of right now in the US, T-Mobile is the only carrier with fully live 5G-NR SA. As someone ...

Turns out that won't help and here's why.

This modem will not have all the bands that are advertised. The affected bands are as follows: LTE B43, 5G NR n7, n8, n12, n20, 25, n38, n40, n48

So T-Mobile has recently turned on band n25 and n41 all over the place in my area. My Galaxy 23+ connects to n25 and n41 just fine and I can see all the network info when I go into the service mode on the Galaxy 23+. Naturally I wanted to get my EM9191 running on n25 and n41 as well. On the Sierra ...

There is an AT command At!selrat=? you can send to sierra modems and specifically on the em91xx series modems you can choose to do "5G Only" and it will only run 5G SA mode if it's available, which with T-Mobile it usually is especially with n71

It's very odd. I agree though and don't think it's anything to do with the modem and it's something router related with the firmware. I'll give that a go this weekend when I'm home again. My concern is that if the connection monitor reboots the modem and it glitches out with this pin code rejected ...

Hello,
I've recently built a WiFix NEXS2GO w/ an EM9191 in a WiFix V7 m.2 enclosure. It's working well and blowing the previous EM7565 setup outta the water. I have it set to NR 5G SA pulling a single band of n71 on T-Mobile. When it's working it works flawlessly however, after soft reboots or when ...

Have you messed around with any 5G stuff yet to squeeze out more performance?

Thank you! I'm away for work right now and this hotel I stay at has the wildest speeds I've ever seen over LTE. I wish I had this level of signal at my house. While I'm here I plan to build a 5G setup and see how much speed I can really push. I alao want to see what happens with the ping time on sub ...

Unless you need to specifically connect to a certain band to force better performance due to one band giving worse ping times or speed, it would be best to leave the bands alone as in leave it as all bands. Is there any particular reason you're trying to lock bands?

You can figure out where the cell tower is and then use google earth to basically figure out what angle from your house is best to aim your antennas. Where are your antennas currently mounted and how high are they and how far are the antenna cable runs

You would be correct. Mine did not reflect one of the bands cause I believe the EM7565 does not support all of the Sprint bands.

Firstly, I am soo sorry I forgot to get back with you on this. I've been extremely busy the past few weeks.

Anyway if you still need this information, here is a list of all the band masks that I currently have.

List of bandmasks

Ahhh okay. That makes more sense. I'll right up a quick crash course for you on this after work and post it here

Do you already have the system up and running and can connect to the internet? Also what is your reasoning behind locking bands. A lot of times the em7565 is happier and more stable when not band locked with signal permitting

Well that's unfortunate but I kind of expected that answer. I'm currently connect to a Chicago server so I'll see how long that lasts as I'm away for work during the week. If it's still good then I might leave and see what happens and then give QMI a shot. Thank for your reply and I'll eventually ...

I have a Linksys WRT3200ACM with an EM7565 mounted in a The Wireless Haven m.2 to USB 3.0 enclosure using two genric yagi antennas. I'm using a T-Mobile unlimited phone plan with HD streaming active so I can stream things with easy past 1080p resolutions. I typical pull between 75 to 100mbps down ...

I used a usb y cable to micro usb to connect to a m.2 usb 2.0 enclosure and ran rooter firmware on the wrt3200acm and that works well

Yes. For some people this is their only option,

Idk what you're situation is like but I'd look into remotely setting up your equipment and using ubiquiti equipment to bounce the connection back to you location

It's nice but I use LTE as my backup connection now as I now have a fiber fed powerbeam. It's a shared service but I typically can pull 50 to 70 mbps at 10ms

I have used Verizon, Sprint, T-mobile and AT&T on my EM7565. I rank them as follows in my area from best to worst: T-Mobile, Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T.

I currently use Verizon as my back up connection as I have a fiber fed Ubiquiti PowerBeam as my main connection and I gave my T-Mobile to a buddy ...

Here are the bands that I use on the EM7565 to lock and get CA. I've gotten CAx3 on T-Mobile and I only got it by locking bands. On an MC7455 you can only do CAx2 so this is not always the case.

Keep in mind that some of these band are only on the MC7455 and some of them are only on the EM7565 ...

I have the command at home I will post it when I get there later this evening.

Yeah most cell companies do throttle after 15gb or so. Calyx does not though. It's kind of expensive but it's nice not being throttled.

Just for clarity on my part, wouldn't it need to be at!band=0D,"B 66",0,0,0000000000000002 for band 66? 0A would refer to band 2, right?

You can use any index such as 0A or 10, 11, or 12 to name a custom band. You can always change the custom band later. That is shown in this tutorial. It all ...

Here is all the 16 digit band masks for the EM7565. For a band 66 lock you would enter:
at!entercnd="A710"
at!band=0A,"B 66",0,0,0000000000000002

at!band=?
Index, Name, GW Band Mask L Band Mask 1 L Band Mask 2 TDS Band Mask L Band Mask 3 L Band Mask 4
00, All bands 100600000FC00000 ...

Give me a few and I can give you a copy for the em7565 of all the band masks

As Jim said if you don't use the at!entercnd="A710" first then it won't show you the 16 digit band mask. You just want band 66 only for the band you are trying to lock to?

It appears you are throttled (as opposed to deprioritized) after your 10GB (15GB on a multiple user plan), but it fails to explain what "slower speeds" mean but 2G (at 512 Kbps) or 3G at would not be surprising. Be interesting to know.

Hey, don't let that be a deterrent. High speed data is still ...

What kind of luck have you had with using the unlimited aspect of the project fi data plan? I regularly use about 250gb of data at my house a month. It would be nice to have a backup but not unless it's truly unlimited after that 6gb. Have you gone over 30gb with this plan and if so have you noticed ...

Another nice thing about having router is that you can setup a VPN if you wish to do so on the router. And if you have a sprint plan with the APN r.ispsn you can setup UPnP and have an open NAT type. That's a big deal for us gamers out there. As for signal and speed boost have a the modem/router ...

Oh an I forgot to answer you question on would the custom ROOter work, yes it would it would just have to made for that router which can be done.

Is there enough room to fit it all inside of that router?

The Em7565 is m.2 not mPcie, so unless there is a version of tbe wg3526 that comes with m.2 there would be no way to set this modem up in that router. Another thing is the em7565 is cat 12 if you are just looking for cat 6 the mc7455 is perfect for that.

This tutorial was originally created by Jim Helms on the original Wireless Joint forum. I have added several commands and explanations to help clarify their use. Feel free to ask questions or suggestions for adding to the list.

Edit: Just so everyone knows, this is with 2xCA there is no 3xCA being broadcast in my area.

That is correct. Something to consider is in order to do either of these you will need 2 modems. But if it speed you are looking for you might want to look into the EM7565 (Cat 12). It is able to do 3xCA where as the MC/EM7455 (Cat 6) is only able to do 2xCA. So, you could get far fastest speeds ...

Is your modem inside a router like a ZBT or is it in an enclosure? If it is in an enclosure I'm wondering if the usb cable is not good enough and that might be causing these disconnects possibly.

You're not the only one. I've seen a few other that this is happening to as well unfortunately. Give Calyx a go, they have always been good.

Do you have the modem reconnect enabled? If you have it set to router reboot during a lose of ping then that can happen.

It should look like this when enabled with modem reconnect if you are using it.

If the router reboots every time you loose internet connection then ...

In the past I have used a Calyx plan and those plans have been solid. Never had an issue with them. I did for a few months switch over to a personal Verizon phone plan and use that. For those of you out there that are curious about using Verizon it is not open NAT or route-able IP like a r.ispsn ...
