From this post
The multiple ways of using this $10 line for home internet are:
1. T-Mobile Gateway + Cudy N300 or X6 which are wifi only routers to mask hotspot usage with TTL set on the external wifi router. You can use other wifi routers for this purpose but there's a menu page in the Cudy routers which makes setting TTL easy - Courtesy waterchange
1.1 Cudy router like Cudy LT500 or LT18 or the 5G P8 work as a single device with modem + wifi router. Work well for home internet. Nice thing about the Cudy modems is easy TTL (and imei magic if necessary). - Courtesy waterchange
2. M2100 hotspot device - Hit or a miss - native out of the box but less reliable
3. Orbic 5G hotspot device - more reliable than the m2100, however some people have reported throttling after 1st couple of months
4. Gateway + Project Genesis - works most reliably
5. TMOHS1 - ~ 30-50 mbps out of the box, no TTL update required
6. Tmobile Franklin - ~30-50 mbps with TTL update - the most reliable as of right now, however limited speed.
7. M2000 won't pull data from anywhere.
8. GL.iNET Spitz GL-X3000NR easier to use than Cudy and better performance but expensive. Great form factor and performance. Presets for T-Mobile TTL settings and advanced cell features like tower/band lock. External antennas.
9. M3000B works out of the box with T-Mobile version. Has battery preservation features and ethernet port. Some users say to switch 5G mode to NSA if the hotspot restarts frequently in your area.
Add/update if you have more/better info.

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
soc code ZB10HSTI is the one you want.

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

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.

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

I have 2 iPhones and iPad connected to router, all were run normal at the same time.

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.

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?
Below should be the corrected one for my Asus Router AX86U and Nokia 5G21
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
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 eth0 -j TTL --ttl-set 65 (I set mine to 68 in case)
chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/*
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
Could I have some love for this post?

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
