I bought the Linksys wrt32x do you know of any firmware that will support USB tethering because it doesn't support it right out the box currently I have a mifi tethered to my PC and ethernet from PC to router works great but would like to connect em7565 to the router at some point either through the USB port or get a second board to plug the modem into then run ethernet cable from board to router any advice o by the way I'm a truck driver that's why I'm trying this build

I just replied to this on a different topic.

Download and install GOLDENORB on the WRT32X and use the USB3.0 to M.2 adapter enclosure with the EM7565 to connect to the WRT32X.

This makes a great setup.

So your saying all I got to do is install some firmware and that's going to enable the USB port to accept internet through it and if so in the mean time till I get the modem could I USB tether my mifi 7730l to it

I am not sure about the tethering requirements of a Mifi or whether GoldenOrb has the drivers for it. That may be something best researched on the ROOTer (GolodenOrb) forum.

The above post has been corrected to refer to the WRT32X as opposed to the WRT3200

I tried to install the goldenorb firmware for acm
3200 and it won't work for the 32x

I've been looking at doing either the setup you described above, since I already have a Linksys WRT32X, or using an EM7565 with a WG3526. How would the above setup compare to the WG3526 with EM7565? Pros/Cons of one over the other? I have an ATT tower 1.2 miles away through trees, and a Tmobile tower (with great speeds on B66 on my iphone) only 1.0 miles away through a few trees. Not ready to put in external antenna's yet, just want to get a reliable cell signal first with omni-directional antenna's. Will initially have both an ATT SIM card and a Tmobile SIM card for testing my setup.

There is a 2019-11-25 build for WRT32X available HERE.

I personally like the WRT series of routers. Some have mentioned that the WiFi is less than desired but I have never had an issue with them.

The WG3526 is a good build since the router and modem is within one unit, but the WiFi seems less than optimal. There are also people using the WG3526 as the gateway/modem, and coupling it to a good WiFi router.

I would also consider the EM7511 (as opposed to the EM7565) for AT&T since it has the new FirstNet Band 14.

Hello everyone! I received my equipment yesterday! Was excited to get it up and running, so set it up as described above, except with the EM7511. Can't get connected using a tmobile sim card. I posted last night asking for help to work out the disconnect here: https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=907. Hoping to keep track of what I do to create a tutorial for this equipment grouping...if I can just get it to work!

Update Feb 26: Everything works, but did have to add more power for the modem to connect! I'll put together a step-by-step of how I built everything, so anyone else who wants to use their Linksys WRT32X can set it up. Summary steps are listed at the link I posted (previous paragraph).
