usb hotspot after x hours 4g disappears
Posted: Fri Sep 10, 2021 8:32 pm
Hello All,
Am waiting on an Sierra Wirelss modem to arrive for a new setup am wanting to try.
In the meantime, two days ago, started using my new ZTE blade7 phone with visible as a usb tethered hotspot.
Am just leaving it plugged into a server that in turns feeds one client machine in house.
Like clockwork in about 2 to 2.5 hours internet stops. After several times of this happening i know exactly what i am going to see on the phone. The '4G' icon has disappeared and at top of screen it does say 'no internet connection'. If i unplug phone from usb cable from phone it takes about 5 minutes and eventually the '4G' icon is showing close to signal strength bars on phone and internet is working fine,
WHen it does work,i get the advertised 5MB down,speed flawlessly.
The phone is not hot at all.
Ideas.
Isnt a real big deal as i am hoping my modem arrives in a few days for the actual setup which will of course eliminate the phone.
Thanks
