LB1120-100NAS conencts, then after a while can ping, but can't TCP.
Help!
I'm in NYC, connecting the LB1120-100NAS to LTE. I have a great signal. I'm using the broadband APN... It seems like everything is working... Then...
I have a problem that after an hour or so the LB1120-100NAS is only able to ping. TCP/IP connections (e.g. HTTP) don't work anymore. I can't figure out why. I restat the LB1120-100NAS and it works...
Anybody experience this? Figure out how to solve it?
I had the _SAME EXACT PROBLEM_ with a gl.iNet GL-X750, so I suspect that AT&T is doing something that drops me when I try to keep the connection nailed.
Anyone?

This also happens to me on my LB1120 and LB2120 modems, but it lasts longer than an hour. I ended up using a timer to restart the modems every 12 hours. Everything will be working fine and then around 10-14 hours the modem will show it is connected, but no internet traffic is passed.
Prior to using these modems I used DC112A cradles +815S hotspots using the same SIM cards that I *never* had to reboot to bring them back to life.

I thought about that as a solution, "using a timer to restart the modems" but then realized that it would be better to have a reliable product that can be configured to actually work as needed. I've opened a support case... Nothing meaningful yet.

No answer here for you. I'm sorry. Just a "me too."
It's been happennig to me ever since I bought it but was only a minor inconvenience. I simply unplugged the device and plugged it back in.
It's now a bigger issue though as this device my primary internet connevction versus back up.
So, I am umplugging and re-plugging about 4 or times a day when say, my VPN connection drops or my firestick fails to connect.
So - me too. I'd love to knwo what is causing my internet connevction to AT&T drop so often.
