LBR20 keeps disconnecting from LTE

Yep blitzberlin. Pretty much what I was seeing in the logs as well. The thing I don't understand is how is it getting assigned new DHCP addresses every 15 or so SECONDS during that supposed downtime period? Seems to me that it has to be getting a data call connected each time - at least enough to get assigned a DHCP address. Could Verizon be dropping the call immediately after it connects and then allowing a reconnect - and then repeating that process several times?? Seems unlikely... Something odd about that behavior IMO.

After a bit of research, I found that they're using Quectel's EG18 module (which, BTW, is NOT among the Quectel modules that Verizon lists on its site as supported...). The connection manager (quectel-cm) is capable of providing more detailed logs, but I wasn't able to find a way to start it up that way on boot... If I can find some spare time I may see whether it's possible via the debug interface to kill/restart the CM with additional logging and see if that provides any additional insight into what's happening. Being an OpenWRT-based device does have its advantages. Thanks to NETGEAR for that! It's normally one of the reasons I buy NETGEAR routers.

But unless I can figure out a workaround soon (or NETGEAR speaks up about availability of a fix), the replacement unit may end up going back as well. I predict a bunch of LBR20 refurbs on the market if this isn't addressed soon. Negative feedback at Amazon starting to stack up.
