Just got my NEXQ6GO router and Quactel EP06 modem set up and followed configuration detailed below.

viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2212

Couple questions:

on my router I had 6 cgdcont to replace, is that normal?

Also did not see where I would update TTL.

connected, but throttled.

Look at this one just for TTL

Thank you again. Which tab do I find the TTL/Custom rules that are in the link you provided?

one last question, where do you set a wifi password in Wifix configuration?

Won't say TTL will say custom rules. When you paste that in there it will change TTL.

Also for good measure copy and past this shown below in to custom rules
Tab to the left of custom TTL settings called custom rules.

#start TTL rules
iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 64
iptables -t mangle -I PREROUTING -i wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 64
ip6tables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j HL --hl-set 65
ip6tables -t mangle -I PREROUTING -i wwan0 -j HL --hl-set 65
#end TTL rules

This will get you in the ball park for wifi settings.

Thank you again. Still being throttled, but sounds like this is a know issue, and these rules may not necessarily fix the issue.

I am being throttled on my visible tethered phone. But haven't tried one in router since this started. So don't know if it is happening there too. Did you put this and do nothing with the Custom ttl change?

Also changed custom TTL to 64. Seems like a reboot solves the throttle issue for some time, but eventually comes back.

On the tethered phone if I use custom rules and give it a higher ttl like 88 and use a VPN on client device works everytime. Even with free warp cloud flare app.

Will have to give it a shot. For my purposes, even 5mb on cellphone is ok. Need the download speeds for downloading/uploading larger files for work. Possible even with a 5mb connection, but slow.

Can confirm that TTL settings no longer work with Visible. I have a gl-inet ar750s at home that I use for backup with a backup line from visible on a google pixel 4a. My main internet went down at home, so I fired this stuff back up and I am being throttle to 5mbps now. Worked fine in the past. Has anyone come up with a workaround yet?

Had to start from scratch on my router and having an issue connecting to the internet after I enter these settings (router shows connected, but not able to access any sites). Should I have two sets of rules? It seems like the router is creating the second set based on what I select in the custom ttl settings. Below is what I see. Not sure if this could cause no internet even though it shows I am connected with a decent signal.

#start TTL rules

#startTTL
iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 67
iptables -t mangle -I PREROUTING -i wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 67
ip6tables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING ! -p icmpv6 -o wwan0 -j HL --hl-set 67

Turn custom TTL setting off. When you use the custom rules then you don't use custom ttl at all. Try that and see if that changes anything.

That was it. Thank you!

How do I turn custom TTL setting off on a GliNet router (I used GL-AR150). Thanks!

The custom TTL is a setting in rooter not in the GliNet firmware.

You can follow these instructions to verify you setting it in the right place in GliNet firmware.

I still do not get it.
Do I need to delete all the rules in the custom rules (OpenWRT, LUCI) and then paste the TTL and HL script in there, save, restart the firewall and the router and phone then test if that works?
Or, do I need to append the script to the one already existing and then save, restart the firewall and the router and phone then test?
I am asking because that does not work for me and I still am getting throttled using all kind of TTL numbers one can imagine.
I stumbled across the post above saying to turn the TTL off, but I am not sure how to do that in either LUCI or in the program of the router.
Thanks

Here is the picture of custom ttl in rooter only. You will not see this option in gl.inet routers. The only way you would see it is if you flashed the gl.inet router with rooter firmware.
Here is the a picture of the the custom rules that you could put into rooter or gl.inet firmware.

Thanks. Is it possible to flash the Glinet router I have with WifiX Rooter?

Yes I believe it is but not necessary to use the custom rules. Also the custom rules above is for a tethered phone. If was using a modem it would be different.

yes, the TTL rules change if using a phone tethered to the Glinet router (usb0) vs. using a 4g lte modem like a MOFI 4500. I have the right script for TTL/HL for a phone tethered to a GLInet router and I have checked the name of my phone to tethered to the router and it is correct. As for flashing, I hope I won't brick the device. Will give it a try (I have two of them).

Your image does not seem to update the firmware. I am at the verification stage for about one hour and still going.... Actually, I do not think it allows me to get WifiX rooter

This isn't my image. I just linked it for you


Are you using the firmware recovery method or the GLinet UI to load the firmware?

They are updated here:
http://www.aturnofthenut.com/autobuilds/

info on the rooter firmware here:

ofmodemsandmen.com

there should be a .pdf in the .zip file on ways to load the firmware.

Got it! I have installed Rooter on my router GLinet 150... I set the custom rules as such and I disable the TLL rules. I restart the firewall and I still am getting throttled. I did check that my phone is indeed usb0.

This is what I use:

iptables -t mangle -I PREROUTING -i wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 65

iptables -t mangle -I PREROUTING -i usb0 -j TTL --ttl-set 65
#endTTL
