What's the difference between that one and the RM510Q-AE ?

I don't know of the 510 series having an AE variant. The 500 and 502 do. The AE is north american centric. GL=Global.

Which module are you using for 5G? The quectel one?

RM502-AE, Quectel

We deported our docsis CableCo service a few years ago. I rolled my own last Spring that works with my One + line on n71 and n41. Here is my latest one. For fun I used the Tmo LTE gateway sim in it and it was crabby when forced onto 5G.

I'm ready for them to update those crappy L850 radios into the old antennae they threw up here to n5 already. Lot's of old sites with 2 bands. Many such cases.

I literally have to drive to the bad areas to experience n41, wish they would hurry up in my neighborhood.

Imagine getting jacked doing a speedtest

Cool. 5G is here.

lol I threw mine in the dumpster just a few days ago. Good timing.

Wouldn't be surprised if this is about 5G home modem/routers

How could this even be a possibility?:

I can't imagine there wasn't a merger condition prohibiting this very thing from happening. Perhaps it wasn't enough of a deterrent if this is even being floated or discussed out there.

Who knew the merger would be a jobs program for the PRC home modem industry?

I have this service. I signed up at an address where I already have a voice line in a modified cellular router. I had the user send it to my unapproved address once they received it.

It works fine for an always QCI9 line. Others may find it easier to just add a voice line to their current plan, and put that sim in a cellular router after modifying the IMEI to appear as a phone.

If you can turn some screws and flash a router you are saving like 30 or 40 bucks a month and your line has priority. The only way to add external antennae to their Askey router is with some creative soldering.

The map is no longer granular when zooming in. That was an easy way to see if a new tower went up or if one was serviced by T-Mobile.

I came across my first Sprint/T-Mobile combined site today. You can take a look here here:

You can see the T-Mobile quadband 8-port Commscope panel (for 600/700/1900/2100), the T-Mobile massive MIMO Nokia panel (for 2500), the Sprint dualband 8-port RFS panel (for 800/1900) and the Sprint Commscope 8T8R (for 2500). 

So what is live on each for 2.5?

My QuecteI RM510Q-GL is here now. It works in USB and PCIe mode. This makes me happy.

loss is lower

Probably. I see WCS here on 2x ports on that same antenna. I have no idea why. We have 15MHz carriers here, one in PCS and one in AWS1 that do 4x according to my radio. the 10MHz carrier in AWS 3 is 2x and WCS is 2x on father sites that have it.

We have 15MHz here in 700MHz A/B/C blocks and the PS block at 10MHz, T-Mo/VZW has L850. I think they run WCS on the antennae that they port low band out of.

• B12/B14 and B5 at 4x4 through the lowband ports via a 700/850 diplexer
• B2 and B66 at 4x4 through one of the mid/highband arrays via a PCS/AWS diplexer
• B30 at 4x4 though the other mid/highband array

It seems like it would make sense to run the widest channel on it's own without a diplexer and that probably is not WCS.

Especially in areas that require a filter for satellite so they are not at 5MHz.

Let me know when you want a 5G router.

imagine these same markets are where Visible would work well

70% of Visible users I encounter online already have their SIM parked in an LTE router made to look like a phone.

What are the 8xMHF7 ports used for? 

Those would be dedicated mmWave ports for antennae.

Kind of surprised I have not had any questions about this yet.

 I didn't make a region based claim. I made an overall claim. T-Mobile is just the better network. Both networks have bad areas across the country. Sprint just happens to have more of them.

My local site has Sprint with powervision PCS A-F SISO antenna on it still.

Thank you! Now my reg LM960 doesn't have the Verizon version. Do you happen to have the firmware with Generic, Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T all together in one? The reg LM960 firmware wiped out my Verizon version

I never saw a version of that card that had all 4 carriers on it. I do not have any other firmware for it,

@belusnecropolis Thank you! From what I'm seeing it doesn't look as difficult as I thought. I was considering following the advice of someone who mentioned they go a modem and an enclosure for it... Is there a modem that allows you to play with your IMEI and can be put into a router perhaps? Would you be willing to share about antennas and general construction? Thank you again.

Message me a good number and time to reach out to you this weekend.

Hello belusnecropolis,

I messaged you on the ROOter forum a week ago I guess you have busy and missed it. So I signed up here to ask if you could help me get the firmwares for LM960 & LM960A18. Could you get this "Telit LM960 Multi Image Firmware Updater V.32.00.0x1 (Generic and AT&T) for Windows host systems" for the old LM960 and the new firmware for new version LM960A18? I have both and the LM960 is missing the generic carrier profile (only has AT&T and Verizon) and LM960A18 only has AT&T config. I had tried to get the sales rep from semiconductor to provide the latest firmware for LM960A18 but he has ghosted me simply because he didn't know where to get them and kept providing me publicly available files and not the files restricted to vendors only. You seem to have all the latest firmwares already. Could you post somewhere for me or others to update? Thanks in advance.

P.S. I have Sprint so my sim isn't working in LM960A18 and only 2CA (B41) on LM960 when I know my tower supports 3CA and confirmed with phone.

Busy indeed. You made the effort so have one LM960 stuffs

The file for your reggie, non A18 LM960 is the 4th one. The Telit WHQL etc.
