I have an LHG with an EP06-E module fitted running to a tower about 10km away connected to Telstra. It's been OK for the most part but lately the 4G link has been flapping several times a day, sometime with long periods of silence.
The logs show nothing awry apart from the LTE link going down and DHCP not happening. Has anyone else noticed robustness issue with this module? I have set system reboots at 5am to try and help but it keeps happening through the day.
HI all,
Kinda pulling my hair out with this one.. Hoping someone has a suggestion.
I have a RBwAPG-5HacT2HnD, love this thing. But yesterday morning we
started getting weird outage alerts from monitoring at home, with some
devices being offline. (The main kicker was the cubby lol) When I got
home from work I went looking, and finally tracked it down to wlan2 being
missing.. A reboot brought it back.. But 10 mins later it was gone again.
Rebooted it a few more times, then added remote syslog, and went to bed.
Got up this morning, and remote syslog really wasn't any use at all (I
assume there's some specific prefix I should have been punting to remote
syslog to catch the device going away), and now reboots aren't helping, it
has to be a physical power removal and re-application..
Thankfully I have a spare (Got one on ebay at the start of the year, and
had meant to set it up at the back of the house), so have just finished
copying the config to it, but would love to get this one working properly
again.. Was hoping it was just mini-PCIe cards or something, but alas no.
Has anyone had the 5GHz radio go away on these? And fixed it? It's 4 1/2
years old, so I'm pretty sure it's out of warranty period 🤣
Thanks,
DG

We rode on the winds of the rising storm,
We ran to the sounds of thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
and tore the world asunder
I'm quite sad to have just discovered that the PS180-T is now EOL, does
anyone know of a similar product out there?
I've got them at quite a few sites and would really love to avoid running
an external modem in bridge mode.
Cheers,
Tim
