LB1120 internet stops working every few hours
Recently, the internet connection on my LB1120 has stopped working every few hours. When I log into the LB1120 modem, it shows that the internet is still connected on the modem, but no internet conne...
I created a python script to check internet connectivity every 3 minutes from my raspberry pi and reboot the modem if the connection drops out. I'd be willing to share if anyone out there is interested and already has a Linux computer running 24/7 to monitor their modem status. Now I don't have to manually reset the modem!

You can also change bands (from Auto to LTE All and viceversa) and it's more quickly than rebooting the router.
I don't see that option on the LB1120 modem. Band is stuck at Auto.
I tried to click the disconnect button and then re-connect, but that didn't seem to resolve the issue. Full reboot for me...
I ahve the same problem.
I set up a second APN that does not work but I can toggle between the 2 APNs for a faster reconnection.
The APN I setup is:
Name: Red Pocket
APN: reseller
Authentication: None
PDP: IPV4
PDP Roaming: IPV4

Great idea! I tried this, but I noticed that the connection only comes back as 3G. It won't go up to 4G until I reboot the modem after the APN change.
