LM1200 repeatedly dropping link
I recently purchased an LM1200-100NAS to serve as an LTE failover connection for my homelab and noticed a strange issue while setting up my pfSense-based router to use the LM1200 as a secondary WAN c...
I have the same UDM Pro setup with LM1200 on WAN2. My SIM is a Verizon BYOD data-only plan. The modem will connect and operate fine, until I swap the WAN interface in the UDM console to simulate a WAN failover. The moment the UDM Pro attempts to get a DHCP address, the modem will reset itself. I've tried both bridge and router mode with the same results.
Sorry to add to the pile, but I am dealing with this exact issue and am hoping a resolution is close. I am in a rural location with only a single Verizon cell tower accessible, so I have no other options than to get this working somehow. I am using an LM1200 with a verizon provided SIM card, in bridge mode (after reading through the previous entries). I have an EnGenius EWS850AP connected for my WAP. When the system is running without a reset (for anywhere from a few tens of seconds to maybe half an hour) I can get net access through the wifi to my laptop or my cell phone. When I try and actually hook up the devices I need at this site (security cameras and miscellaneous controllers for items like heating systems) I can't successfully connect to the source router. I take that same WAP to a different location and connect it to a DSLAM, I can set up my devices just fine, which tells me that either my configuration on the LM1200 is incorrect, or somehow Verizon is filtering the IP traffic so that only a cell phone or a laptop PC can negotiate the connection.
any advice is welcome. I don't have the specific IP transport knowledge that many use here, but I am a 30 year veteran digital hardware designer and at least familiar with the basics.
