WS 3526P EM160 Modem, new 4 amp power supply
Modem is about 2 months old, WH, had to replace my prized EM 20 that went bad.
This router is/was from WH, and is (4x4) mimo only used for testing.
I can set any settings you may need, to make it as simple as possible, to get running!
Reason for selling ...

This is where I'm going to drop this-? Hello ALL,
Just wanted to share, and give a big shout out to Richard at the WH.
I have been testing, (playing) with LTE since 2019-means nothing, cause I started late in life LOL
I had Richard build me a IG in an enclosure, that replaced an 3526P, with a em160 ...

yes please, if U know-please share.
thanks, Rocky

I would delete but do not know how--again thanks

Dang--after what Richard said, I decided to keep it-thanks Richard

Did you do, as Didneywhorl suggested?
This requires IMEI matching and the APN: vzwinternet
you must preform magic.-you will need to send an AT command to the modem, we are NOT allowed to speak of this in (this forum.

The plan is available. Go to this site and READ!! till your eyes bleed, you can learn all U need to know--but before just asking, READ!

I have a 3526p/EM20--running latest firmware. I have it in MBIM mode, and it seems to run OK--Is there an advantage to running in QMI mode--what are the plus-minus to the (2) different modes??
many thanks, Rocky

I finally installed the WiFix update-working great!!
thanks

OK thanks-no worry on the ping fix

Didneywhorl, do you have any working knowledge, or shared knowledge that this would be an improvement to the firmware that I'm currently running? (1-21-2020) I hate to screw up a good thing--lol thanks for your time!

PS-How do you fix MBIM mode-with older firmware, can you share, or link me to it ...

New to doing firmware updates, have router/modem listed in title with a GoldenOrb build of---1-21-2020---looking for a stable upgrade.

Using a Verizon post paid tablet plan, in QMT mode--tried MBIM mode and pings doubled, but DL/UP speeds were close.
Thanks for your thoughts

Is it just losing connection, or is the modem rebooting/resetting?

Checking your logs again, it looks like you have the connection monitor on and it is resetting your modem when ping no longer responds.

You also have the NWSCANMODE set to 0, which allows non LTE connections. I usually set mine ...

I have the same router/modem---new to me (rig)

Are you coming out of (1) of the (4) lan ports of the router?
When you bring up a address bar, clear it out, and input 192.168.1.1

Yes, I still have the plan, as I have stated before ...

Taking the "EC20EQAR02A13E2G" off the modem itself and cross referencing it comes up as a cat 3 with 100mbps DL max, with no CA. Definitely not worth $300. You can get the same performance from the Sierra MC7700 on The Wireless Haven for $40.

You saved my bacon, if it sounds to good to be true ...

WE826 T2 MC 7455 internet lost, with scheduled reboot, if no scheduled reboot all is well.

Only way for me to get internet back, is to do a power reboot of the router.

Any ideas, as I would like this to work.

Thanks, Rocky

mods, please move or delete if not appropriate.

After setting your TTL--
try this to make sure your TTL setting is, what you think it is-

To do a ping, get default address—probably 192.168.1.1
then do a CDM command window—type ping(space)192.168.1.1 hit enter and you should see your TTL settings.
APN is VZWINTERNET

What TTL did you use ??

Sounds crazy, but in NM, I used 117---but then moved to TN, and now using 65. Go figure :o

Yeah, it seems that the att and tmob tablet plans are the most talked about. Perhaps it's because verizon has a reputation for sniffing traffic to a deeper degree than others. What if any magic did you do to get it working?

As I stated in the post--I activated it in a working 4g tablet (cheap ...

I know I will get some flack for this-so take it for what it's worth.

It's probably saving it in the system, just not displaying it once it's rebooted. All that matters is that it works.

You are probable correct, as I would go back, and log back in to the router, and click on the blank line where the intended address should be--and it would re-appear :)
thanks ...

As for saving the custom DNS, make sure you are using the "Save & Apply" button and not just the save.

I did use the (save & apply) button, numerous times, and it would NOT save the (2) Ipv6 lines??
oh well it's working.

It has to be something with they way the newer devices package up their data. Maybe the older devices are not using ip6?
