Only PPP mode interface has settings for data and info channels, I've had some success in the past by changing to serial mode (/port firmware set ignore-direction-modem=yes) reboot, look for PPP-out1 and try some different data and info channel value. You'll know you have info right when you can click 'info' and see full results - if you see partial results, use that channel for 'data' setting. Also, don't forget that the modem has its own OS so router re-BOOT (or re-SET) does not reset the modem. So sometimes complete power cycle (count to 20 with power disconnected) can kick a struggling modem into action ;) Good luck! ;) Cheers, Mike. -----Original Message----- From: Public [mailto:public-bounces@talk.mikrotik.com.au] On Behalf Of Andrew Gilbett Sent: Monday, 28 September 2015 6:36 PM To: MikroTik Australia Public List <public@talk.mikrotik.com.au> Subject: Re: [MT-AU Public] Huawei LTE Wingle E8372 & RB951UI-2ND Telstra Hi Dave, Thanks for that, but the LTE interface does not have any options for channels That method did work for a ZTE MF821, which uses the ppp module and appears more like a standard 3g modem rather than an Ethernet port on the computer. The settings it does have are: User Password Network Mode Bands PIN APN Modem Init These settings do not hold for very long or over a reboot, which is strange. Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Have a play with the channels on the LTE interface. There was a table somewhere with what channel = control, data etc somewhere but if you just play with it you should be able to get it :)

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get the above devices to play together but I am not having much success.
I am able to see the device lte1 appear in the interfaces list, which is a good start, but I cannot convince packets to flow out to the wider internet. I have tried pointing a default route & NAT at lte1 but no luck. I have tried setting an APN but it gets changed back to blank after a short time which I think might be related to the issue. I have installed the LTE package and am running 6.32.2.
This E8372 device is mentioned as working... and it looks like it should but its not quite working... http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Supported_Hardware#4G_LTE_cards
If anyone could shed some light on this that would be great?
The E8372 basically appears as an Ethernet device in my computer and it works just fine there so it is definitely a driver/interface issue between the Mikrotik and the Huawei.
