mr1100 firmware 12.06.39 seems odd and very odd

i regret letting the new firmware 12.06.39 get flashed.

1. speed numbers are all over the place. from hugely wonderful 56mibs to miserale 1mibs. im using mr1100 2a1nas and att.

 

2. there are only 3 cellular band options. auto/wcdma/lte and auto/lte are miserable.

 

3. there is no way to get in and add bands manually. i wanted to go back to b12 or b5. but putty will not connect anymore.

 

does any know how to add bands? or downgrade to firmware to a previous version. this is a miserable situation.

Sre you saying you can't connect to B5 and B12 anymore after upgrading to the new release?

 

Could you please help to capture a model.json file when you see poor throughput? You can send private message to me.

 

- Logon to the webui (http://192.168.1.1 ) as an administrator
- Navigate to URL http://192.168.1.1/model.json via the same browser window
- Capture the results (by selecting all + copy) and send it back

 

Thanks

the firmware update removed all the band assignments i loaded with putty. and putty does not work now.

 

so there is nothing with access to b5 and b12 since i cant define them.

 

i dont mind doing diags but i do need you to have understanding on `12.06.39. have you loaded it? do you in fact have a mr1100 to try this stuff on?

 

and finally, is there a way to get to a previous firmware level.

 

my current workaround is to pitch the mr1100 and switch to mofi4500 and b14. dependable speed just not as high i would like because of laa feature.
