Hi,
I have a RUTX11 router in combination with a Things Mobile multi operator data-only sim card. Sometimes it is able to get a connection and all works. Then, after a few minutes however, the connection is lost and the Data connection state is showing 'disconnected'.
Here is what I have tried:
* Upgrade to the latest firmware (RUTX_R_00.07.01.2, build date 22-01-04)
* Verified I have "good" to "excellent" signal strength (-70 dBm to -85 dBm)
* Tried three different RUT11X routers -> all the same disconnecting behaviour
* Tried the Things Mobile sim card in my Android phone -> it worked fine
* Tried three different three different Things Mobile sim cards -> all the same disconnecting behaviour
* Tried setting custom APN according to the settings provided by Things Mobile -> same disconnecting behaviour
* Tried forcing a specific operator (as I'm using a multi operator sim card) -> same disconnecting behaviour
What does work:
* I tried two other single operator sim cards (one Vodafone and one T-Mobile) and both worked fine, no disconnections
At the end of this post I pasted a portion of logread whenever the disconnect is happening. After the last line the patterns just keeps repeating itself; trying to connect, then resulting in several errors (e.g., "Command failed: Not found", "Command failed: Permission denied")
Does anybody have an idea what I can do about this?
