New Around Here
Hi all,
I recently decided to give up fixed line ADSL as I will be travelling around the UK a lot.
After doing some research into 4G Wireless routers, I settled with the ASUS 4G-AC68U partly because it looks cool and also due to its WIFI antenna ranges.
Initial testing of the router was done with a pay as you go (PAYG) sim card on MVNO network, this was simple to setup and it autoconfigured the APN. I did not experience any drops in internet connection.
So I decided to go with an EE sim with plenty of data. I immediately noticed the speeds were faster, however the WAN connection keeps dropping.
Here are some logs over 2minutes showing you it dropping connection twice
Here are my settings
Things I have done:
Any ideas, I will contact EE potentially to see if there are specific configurations to be done.

Here are my settings
Things I have done:
- Upgraded the firmware
- Tested a different 4G sim, it was stable and ok
- Checked the signal, full strength and line of sight with transmitter
- Posted here for help!
Any ideas, I will contact EE potentially to see if there are specific configurations to be done.
