The first beta firmware posted by kevin works fine with 4g+ or carrier agre..... hope devs can fix it before the official firmware is released thanks.

I can confirm this problem; neither LTE+ nor band aggregation with the new beta firmware.

In my area the signal is very strong and there are bands 1, 3, 20 available.

There is also another (very, very, very) strange thing: with the new beta firmware, my internet connection is way faster than before!

That is a real mystery!

Hi Ralphm24

Herewith two screen shots on the beta software showing4G+ aggregation on both the basic and advanced screen. Please note in advanced screen the signal strength. I have also done a speed test showing 103mbps. The best achieved has been 130Mbps download.

The old beta firmware (1.0_0.9.1) works perfectly for me; with the new beta firmware, the 4G+ led on the modem is turned off and band aggregation is not supported.

Modem status:

Signal strength 100%

RSRP -87dBm

RSQR -10dB

SNR 23.8dB

Old beta firmware 1.1.0_0.9.1

4G+ enabled, band aggregation enabled.

New beta firmware 1.2.0_0.9.1

4G+ disabled, band aggregation disabled

Hi, thank you very much for the feedback.

With the old beta firmware, are you using auto bands? or manually selected bands? and how about the new beta firmware?

 

In addition, are you testing with the same SIM card and at same location? Please also check if they are using the same APN profile settings.

With the old beta firmware I'm using manually selected bands (bands 3 and 20); same settings with the new beta firmware (but if I select "auto bands", nothing changes).

Same SIM card, same location and same APN profile settings.

Connection parameters provided by the ISP:

Network search mode: auto (no changes with "manual")

PDP type: IPv4

APN type: static

Username: NONE

Password: NONE

Authentication type: NONE

There is one thing to notice; if you look at the previous screenshots, you can see that, with the old beta firmware the ISP name is PosteMobile, while with the new beta firmware it is PosteMobileWAP. I don't know why.

  @Sunshine Hi. My carrier aggregation also does not work using this firmware.
