WE826-T2 not staying connected

Post by jason.maynor »

I really didn't want to use this account, I didn't even create this account, but since the one I created is not activating I don't have a choice. So hello non anonymity lol...

Anyways, My WE826-T2 won't really stay connected. I bought it for my truck, as I am an OTR Driver. Every time I move out of the area it connects too, It just drops service. It will not find another tower, or anything. I just have zero service until I reset the power on it and wait for it to power cycle everything. Then It finds and connects to the nearest tower without issue and I have internet again until I move. Is there any way to solve this?

The guide said to avoid that build because of a certain bug? I cant remember which or what but I remember it saying to use the 2018 one

Yes, I read about the bug in the newer version also, that's why I used the GoldenOrb_2018-11-03 but ended up with the ROOter version which has caused nothing but headaches for me. I'm going to attempt to re-flash the modem with the OpenWRT version.
