Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I'm done with Verizon as far as the MC7354 goes. I needed to add data to my plan and they wouldn't let me make any changes at all to my plan, either online or via customer support. I had them cancel the line with the MC7354 and bam, I can make account changes again. Back to T-Mobile...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

gtj,

I managed to get my MC7354 working on Verizon, but performance is poor compared to T-Mobile. What antennas are you using? I suspect that may be my issue. Thanks.

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I finally got to test 6.31rc16 on an RB912UAG. It was already set to 7 and has been working fine. Same experience here, although I went back to the latest stable release. I've had my PPP/VPN link up with external health checking and it's been stable for almost a week. Fingers crossed! I still need ...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

Quick update: T-Mobile has been stable on the MC7354 so far. I'm running an OpenVPN UDP/TLS client (not the one built into RouterOS) over the MC7354 and it's been up and stable for 28 hours now. It's being health checked every 5 minutes by a monitoring service without any hiccups. Speed is good, 13-...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I got T-Mobile working! The problem was that the store didn't activate the SIM with the data plan. The clerk was new so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. When I put the MC7354 into my USB device, connected it to a Windows virtual machine, dialed out, and opened a browser, T-Mobile intercepted the br...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

No, I didn't set up any srcnat/masq rules, because the connection doesn't work. The rules are totally unnecessary for doing tests using the carrier-issued IP, especially forcing the outbound interface. There is a destination route for the carrier, 10.112.112.120/32, which is a bogus IP made up by Ro...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

That's right, it can't pass traffic. The default route shouldn't be necessary if you specify the source IP and (superfluously) the interface. I tried adding the default route and it made no difference.

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I finally received an adapter from China to re-flash the MC7354 to Generic/T-Mobile firmware. The flashing was successful. I purchased and activated a T-Mobile US prepaid data SIM. I tried RouterOS 6.30 and 6.31rc12. The modem is set to PPP mode as in the previous post. I tried various dial numbers,...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

If only the SIM is activated, then it will only work with LTE. :(

Regardless, Verizon wants $20/mo for service with my shared data pool. I was expecting $10. I may go with a T-Mobile pay as you go plan.

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

Actually, looking at Sierra's site, it appears I have Telus firmware, not Verizon.

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I got the MC7354. Problem is, Verizon won't activate it. I tried online, and it failed saying it doesn't support GPS. When I phoned in, their system rejected it because it doesn't support E911. They tried activating it multiple times with both the IMEI and the MEID. They told me it's not a Verizon c...

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

Are you finding a good deal on them anywhere?

What carrier are you using them on? I'm planning to use one on Verizon and I'm wondering how much of a pain the activation will be. Thanks

Re: Compatibility Report: Sierra MC7354 Mini-pcie LTE

I'm thinking about buying an MC7354. It seems like the older MC7710 is a lot more popular and is on the supported list. Would you get the MC7354 again? Is it stable?
