Symptoms when using SALT Mobile network (all or the other Broadband providers using SALT broadband network like Lidl Abo or GoMo) : - Router has to be restarted daily, - some pages works some not, - sometimes page has to be reloaded or is stuck After long troubleshooting with Wireshark: Issue is SALT Double IP address NAT and Encryption which impact TCP\IP MTU size. Solution: - Log into the router and go to "Network Setting" TAB find " MTU SIZE " default value is 1500 (bits) - change it to 1400 Explanation - at the time of writing this post the true accepted value was 1470 bits, but if you do not know how to test it it is better to set it to 1400 and forget about the problem forever Cheers!

Hi MaciejW707
You are a hero. I had exactly the same problem and searched for hours for a solution and found nothing.
Neither Huawei nor Salt support could help me. But your simple trick worked for me - thank you for your contribution.

Does anyone know what the long-term strategy of Swisscom and CO. is? With the cheaply available second SIM cards, it is already worthwhile for most city dwellers to buy such a device (the device is amortised after one to two years compared to the subscription costs of a network provider). Does it matter to Swisscom whether people are connected to the 5G antennas or to the cables? The prices of network providers have already fallen, but can the issue simply be left to the free market economy?

I still have a predecessor product with 4G, the B618 LTE CPE. I want to connect an external antenna (outdoor possible?) so that the router has better mobile reception. It runs quite well, partly up to 180Mbps (Salt), but I would like to place it somewhere else and there the reception in the house is worse. Can anyone recommend a good product?

1. is this router recommended or is the Zyxel NR5101, Wifi6 Indoor Modem Router better? 2. is 5G enough for gaming, streaming, use? (Ping) 3. are these 5G routers like normal DSL routers? So with these 5G routers you can also make settings like port forwarding or firewall multiple wifi private/guest etc? Many thanks for the answers Kind regards Federico

Hello everyone, just purchased and now the following problem: With the Swisscom sim everything runs smoothly, but with the Sunrise the device does not find any network at all. When restarting after inserting a new sim and the corresponding pin, none of the lights (neither 4G nor 5G) light up and then it says no network. I have tried different locations and it must be the settings. Anyone have a good tip? Thanks in advance!

I had similar problems with Salt. With Swisscom it works perfectly for me. Have you ever logged into the router on your PC? You have to enter the IP at the bottom of the device into the browser. This will take you to the router settings. You will also find the password at the bottom of the router. Then go to the "network settings" and at the bottom "profile". If you have the Sunrise card in there,
