The Sierra Wireless LTE Modem series is a very popular choice among those wanting the maximum performance out of their LTE cellular service. The modems are extremely affordable on the second-hand market, cover a wide range of frequencies, and are all factory unlocked. You can buy just about any second-hand Dell branded EM7455, plug it in, and go. Unfortunately there is a bit of a learning curve that goes along with them, but this guide will hopefully serve to make that a short and simple process, rather than a week long process of investigation a researching. This post is part of my Sierra Wireless LTE Modem Guide Series . If you prefer to skip the blog nature of these guides and just grab the bare features and commands, my GitHub repository will serve as the authoritative source for this entire series. Any changes or updates will occur there first. In this series, we’ll cover the following topics: (GitHub links mean that the blog entry is not yet complete) - Modem Perfo
Dear Daniel
ReplyDeletethank you for your amazing work, but would you please explain the advantages of OpenWRT to MikroTik router OS ?
Thanks for this guide! I've got an RBM11G and want to place ROOter on it. Going by the post, it looks like I need a USB to serial adaptor, but I don't know where to hook it up on the RBM11G. Can RouterOS be replaced without needing the USB to serial adapter? Cheers!
ReplyDeleteYes. IIRC, all you have to do is replace steps 7&8 with holding the set button while you plug in power. After about 30 seconds the LEDs start flashing, indicating it is now attempting a network boot.
DeleteThat worked a treat. Thanks champ.
DeleteDaniel,
ReplyDeleteI've got a similar configuration (RBM11G + MC7455). The modem gets detected and works in MBIM protocol. I don't know what to do next - it looks like it works in direct ip mode. How to force it to work?
