Just an FYI if you're just getting this for the "free" tablet. The tablet is a Galaxy A7 lite which only costs $200 ($129 on Amazon)

They will still lock you to a 2 year EIP even if it's free (They'll make a monthly credit to cover the tablet EIP)

Meaning you'd end up paying $10 for 2 years ($240) for a $129 tablet.

So if you're only doing it for the tablet then it's not worth it

Not on the "free" tablet, lol. In all seriousness, don't choose the plan with TE in the title as that one is tax exclusive (you have 2 choices)

soc code ZB10HSTI is the one you want.

It will be ironic if the plan doesnt go away by the 10th.
Where someone said the 10th ?

Your earlier reply sounded different, that's why I double checked.

Care to elaborate on your tweaks when you have a minute?

To you and whom may concern:

This works perfectly for me on both windows and Mac wirelessly. The only thing wired connected is Asus AX86U to Nokia Gateway 5G21(which I bought brand new on eBay for $100 +tax shipped) .

I tested last night on fast.com, it runs 170MB (I have 2 bars most of the times).

1. install merlin 388.1 (for my Asus router)
a. download from the websites
b. extract it
c. go to your router.asus.com page (I have 192.168.50.1)
d. administration->firmware upgrade, upload your file and flash. reboot router

2. login asus router. Up top, there will display Merline, then you can continue to do the rest. If not, re-flash it.

3. in WAN, enable extend the ttl value and spoof lan ttl value (this will work with windows only). Click apply. For Apple products, I disabled both.

4. Go to administration ->system-> JFFS2 , click "yes" on both "JFFS format and JFFS custom scripts and configs"

5. Enable SSH -> "lan only" from the drop-down menu. Change your SSH port # and fill authenticate key

6. Click apply

7. Reboot asus router. After reboot your JFFS format will go back to NO. Leave it alone now

8. Download PUTTY (websites) and install

9. connect your putty to router by keying asus router ip address and port # (it is SSH port # you changed above)

10. In putty, your login with pw

11. type code: chdir /jffs/scripts/

12. navigate to jffs/scripts, If there is no file/directory.

13. then type: nano firewall-start

14. Press enter

15. edit the script to be or create one by type:
#!/bin/sh
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o usb0 -j TTL --ttl-set 65 (I set mine to 68 in case)
chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/*

19. ctrl+x and click Y to save it
20. Manually reboot the router (that was I did)

Now, Go back and open the putty again to see if the scripts are still there. If not, redo those above steps.

Thanks. You mentioned in your post that your Asus router is hardwired to the Nokia gateway. Is it connected via Ethernet or via USB?

Your script sets the TTL for the USB port of your router, I doubt that you're actually pulling mobile data unless your Nokia is connected via USB. Your Fast.com speed indicates that you're pulling hotspot data.

From Yellow port to yellow port. So, it is ethernet LOL
No. My data pull over 10Gb last night, which can not be hotspot

When I run without TTL modification, fast.com was run only 6mb.
And my ping TTL returns are different numbers which indicates it was masked

Like the other guy was trying to say if fast.com shows around 6mb that means you are using device data. If fast.com shows full speed then you are using hotspot data unless you are going through a VPN.

Please do. Your script references "usb0", not "eth0" or "vlan2" (or whatever the Linux reference for your WAN port is). Many of the SNB forum posts for this feature had people connect a 4G/5G modem to the router via USB.

As promised I am back laugh out loud

I just went ahead and change to eth0, and enable extend and spoof TTL value. Everything else stayed the same. And now Fast.com runs to 6mb. So, am I good to go? PeaceApplause


Below should be the corrected one for my Asus Router AX86U and Nokia 5G21

16. ctrl+x and click Y to save it

17. Manually reboot the router (that was I did)

Now, Go back and open the putty again to make sure modified scripts are still there. If not, redo those above steps til it is there (sometimes you may forget to save it).

Also, to save existing nano file after modified, press control and O to save, then Control and X to exit Applause


Could I have some love for this post? ApplausePeace

the Orbic 5G speed is nice! Is there a way to get it for cheap? It's $300 from Verizon? Thanks!

people bought it on ebay

the real issue is, you might want to know first, how many orbic 5Gs are still working with native data in this thread, before you pull the trigger

I am also holding on it
