Yes, I guess that you have a little homework todo and learn about jffs.

OK, my missus went to turkey so now I can test as I want. ;)

You don't have a LTE/4G connection? just a 3G or 3G+ connection, must be a 3G+ as what I've seen.

We both have Telenor as ISP and I can put my modem in "only 3G" mode and test.

Is it so?
 
It dosnt work
I have 3G+ and not telenor.

and I'll wait for new version that support huawei

Just the same experience with my system (3G+, drei.at, N66U, E372). Tried to adapt the script, didn't work either

Code:
#!/bin/sh
sleep 120
echo -e "AT+CGDCONT=1,\"drei.at\"\r" > /dev/ttyUSB0
sleep 5
udhcpc -i usb1 -p /var/run/udhcpc1.pid -s /tmp/udhcpc

Merlin,

I just started playing with a 3G/4G dongle (Vodafone K5150). I had Merlin 374.43 on my RTN-66U. I tried using the 3G as the only internet access, and also as a Dual WAN using the USB as the primary and ADSL as the secondary. I could not get the USB to connect to the 3G network at all (using Network Type: Auto//USB Adapter: Auto//all other settings default as provided by ISP). I tried the script mentioned on this thread, and it still would not work for me. I tried different Merlin Firmwares (39-43) and none of them worked.

Finally, I decided to try the latest ASUS firmware (374_5517). Using that firmware, and selecting USB (3G/4G dongle) as the only WAN access, it connects just fine.

Using the same ASUS firmware, and selecting Dual WAN with USB as primary and ADSL as secondary, the web GUI shows me connected to both USB and ADSL but I have no internet connectivity. So, it appears their implementation of the Dual WAN is not working properly.

After having it work with 374_5517 (single WAN, using USB), I decided to give 374.43 another try. No changes to other settings. Same result, no internet connectivity.

So, what are the differences between the ASUS USB implementation in 374_5517 and Merlin 374.43? Any recommendations or suggestions? Anything you would like me to try?

I rather use Merlin firmware and wonder if you could look into this issue.

Thank you very much,
MM
 
Guys I think some is going wrong here.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
sleep 120
echo -e "AT+CGDCONT=1,\"drei.at\"\r" > /dev/ttyUSB1
sleep 5
udhcpc -i usb1 -p /var/run/udhcpc1.pid -s /tmp/udhcpc

It has to be the /dev/ttyUSB1 otherwise it wont work.

in this way it worked by me but i did not use /dev/ttyUSB0

I still have the script saved here, but using currently a different Rooter (Beta).
 
I don't understand this :confused:

374.43_2 is now 100% working for me in dualwan, and no ATcommands in any script.

374.43 didnot work with my dongle

It must be a timing issue I guess.

374.43 is based on Asus's 374_5656. They have been making numerous changes to the 3G/4G code in the last 2 or 3 releases, adding support for CDC devices, while breaking support for some other devices along the way. So at this time, neither of these works for everyone - it depends on your specific device.

We have to wait for a fixed release from them. I have no way of testing anything related to 3G/4G, so it's entirely handled by Asus.
 
With that in mind, which one of your firmwares is still based on the GPL used by ASUS in their 374_5517?

None. 5656 was released not long after 5517 to resolve ARM-specific issues, so I never released a firmware based on it.

Code:
374.41 (18-Apr-2014)
   - NEW: Merged with Asus's 374_5047 GPL.  Notable changes:
       * Fixed RT-AC68U random reboots
       * Additionnal security fixes
       * Improved Media server, SMB and FTP webui
       * minidlna and radvd updates

Code:
374.42 (9-May-2014)
   - NEW: Merged with Asus's 374_5656 GPL.
 
You have a bad attitude and dont deserved any help:cool:

Thanks,
what about reading the whole thread ??
for example post #111,
===
Jun 4 06:47:57 kernel: cdc_ncm: usb0: 43 mbit/s downlink 43 mbit/s uplink
Jun 4 06:47:57 kernel: cdc_ncm: usb0: network connection: connected
==
before you answer :

change to "your ISP" where it says "Telenor" in script

Still think that I should change APN with connection ????
 
So apparently those commands aren't working because the device isn't modeswitching to modem mode.
Can anyone help me with the usb_modeswitch command for the huawei e3276?
