Re: LM1200 netgear modem I can’t get it to configure my lte network.

Location?
Which carrier and network?

Using a Data-SIM? Reason asking is that some carriers don't allow generic "phone" SIM cards in data-only equipment.

In my understanding, the LM1200 exits as a US (-100NAS, Certified with AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon) and a Australia (-100AUS) model only.

Re: LM1200 netgear modem I can’t get it to configure my lte network.

I’m in US. The carrier is called visible. They use Verizon towers. It’s a data sim. All the rearch I’ve done before purchasing this set up led me to believe it was plug and play with this network. Would there be anyway to get it to work but changing apn ? Im spitballing here not even sure if that makes sense. NOVICE here

LM1200

B2, B4, B5, B12, B13, B14, B66, B71


Visible LTE bands

2, 4, 5, 13, 66.





Hotspot (phone) is 5Mbps speed restricted on Visible, how they apply sims to a LTE modem I’m not sure but I’d guess IMEI is barred as a broadband device & it has to be a Mobile Phone device that’s Verizon supports I’d guess.

Use a 4G/5G phone with 4x4 mimo/carrier aggregation and a ASUS
(Or other) router that supports usb tethering from a Android.

The 5Mbps hotspot also can’t be used with only with 1 device on a iPhone, Apple don’t hand control of these things like Android/carriers do.

“ The SIM card works well in any phone that I try it in and also works in a Netgear Nighthawk M1 after I use the VSBLINTERNET APN.“

Re: LM1200 netgear modem I can’t get it to configure my lte network.

Hi,
Just new here and testing for first time LTE Modem LM1200 and AX1800 Wifi routeur RAX10, so sharing my experience...
I'm in France.
LTE Modem LM1200 works fine here (Bouygues Telecom).
I first tried Modem LM1200.
Inserted an active SIM-data plan.
Connect LAN cable on same switch as my computers, all configured with DHCP for sure.
Connect power and switch on.
After a while, 4G light desesperatly red....
my computer get an 192.168.5.x IP address on LAN (no wan...on modem...).
web browser on 192.168.5.1.
connect with password...OK
The page say me my SIM is code pretected... type the code, ok
Deactivate code on SIM...
Change password
reboot
4G green lights.
Ping on 8.8.8.8 ok !!!
my computer get an 192.168.5.x IP address on LAN (no wan...on modem...).
web browser on 192.168.5.1.
connect with new password...OK
Clik on parameters, then Advanced
Choose for "Router" on "Operation Modes", Bridge is default...
==> "When set to Bridge, this option turns off the router function of the device and assigns the network IP address directly to the attached host. This option can be useful for implementing secure, enterprise VPNs."

cool...

Click on "Send" to change config...
Then, with router config, I can change IP address for 192.168.1.1 and change the range of DHCP distibution...

Then I change the LAN cable of modem LM1200 and connect it to "WAN" port of AX1800 Wifi routeur RAX10.
And the switch of my computers connected to LAN PORT of AX1800 Wifi routeur RAX10.
Power on, initialising, connecting and finally all leds green.
ping on 8.8.8.8 work fine !
Cheking my computers, are on 10.0.0.x LAN segment, and wifi too.
I connect on 10.0.0.1 on web browser, change password and adjust WIFI parameters...

So LM1200 give an 192.168.1.x adsress to AX1800 Wifi routeur RAX10 on wan.
AX1800 Wifi routeur RAX10 is with 192.168.1.x by default. (know that because I maked some config's trying...), automatic config redesigned LAN with 10.0.0.x...

Very stable, work fine...
