Cannot get external IP

Post by mwyee12 »

I am having issues with my wg3526 with sierra em7565 getting an external IP address. The modem seems connected, can anyone provide some suggestions on how I can troubleshoot?

Results of at!gstatus?

You won't get a true external ip for communicating inward. The cell carriers use CGNAT. Unless you pay extra for it, that is.

With the prior settings, I wasn't getting an Internet connection. I left the router alone for awhile and now the external IP address value is populated and my at!gstatus? looks drastically different.

Could this be due to a very weak signal? I have the router at my ranch and it often has difficulty connecting so that I can get Internet access. However, when I have it at my house in suburbia it always works fine.

Yeah. That is low 4G signal. Your GSTATUS shows you on 3G.
