Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

Upgraded the firmware on the MC7455. Works flawlessly on the CF-31 with Windows 10. Craps out on Linux. I had just got it working too. :cussing:

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

No need for codes. I think I might have figured out why the device disappears. It has to do with the kernel auto-suspending USB devices. Right now I added usbcore.autosuspend=-1 to GRUB_CMDLIND_LINUX_DEFAULT section in /etc/default/grub and it's holding. I also went to the Sierra Wireless website, d...

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

Looks busted. Well, I'm about to get an MC7355 and MC7455 to play with next week.

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

Well I've gone and done it. I bought a used CF-31WFNAB1M MK4 from a local supplier. 8400 hours on it but it looks brand new. Not a scratch.

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

Thanks for the refresher, Rob. I pretty much studied the specs of the 7700 series when I was determined to make them work in a CF-19 MK2 and CF-30 MK3, but that was a few years back and my memory's foggy. This info should help anyone who stumbles upon this thread for sure. I am still stuck with my o...

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

First, let me slap myself in the face for a second. :pat: :stupid: I have the MC7700 and NOT the 7710. I have it working on the Videotron network here in Quebec that uses the B4 AWS spectrum (1700/2100) for LTE and now B17 which I think the are leasing from Bell. Sorry, it's been a while and I had s...

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

In that case you have misunderstood me. I have a Sierra card that works for my carrier in Canada. I live in Canada. this card works well in my CF-30 MK2 and CF-19 MK4 in Canada. However, it does NOT work with the LTE band I currently use it for inside the CF-31 I have just obtained. This is what I a...

Re: FINALLY, ordered a CF-31

I have a little trouble understanding the philosophy. Why would Panasonic release region-specific laptops that do not allow certain bands to be used? Shouldn't the card installed inside it be the deciding factor for what frequencies should be bused over PCIe and piped to the OS? Why should the lapto...
