    Jim, does the Elsys have an IMEI number that could get your providers "tablet plan" canceled if the provider checks the IMEI device number? That the SIM card is in?
    In other words if the provider checks the number and it's not a tablet or phone device they allow. Do you run risk getting the plan canceled with the Elsys.
    Is there a way to change the IMEI number on the Elsys device like you've shown on other videos.

    • @CouchPotatoCafe
      @CouchPotatoCafe  2 года назад

      Well if you are trying to do something against their policy then yes they will have a problem with that but if you are straight up and need to use the antenna let them know that and they have never had a problem including the antennas IMEI

    Any chance I would be able to use a visible sim in this the frequencies for visible are actually available on this unit likewise is it possible to use DC unlocker like you showed in one of your other videos on this also wondering if this would work with T-Mobile home internet or if I would have to use the DC unlocker program like I would with visible

    • @CouchPotatoCafe

      I did test with Visible and worked ok not great but that could be because they have realigned my towers, I have not used or tried any modifications

    @porky7753 3 года назад +1

    Great concept, they just need to get the right modem in it. Or reconfigure it to add our own modem so we can magic and get those good bands. Amplimax, you got something good here but you gotta sharpen the pencil and it will take off.

    • @CouchPotatoCafe
      @CouchPotatoCafe  2 года назад +1

      Hi Carlos, T-Mobile works fine with it but you may need to call their support and give them the IMEI number of the modem so they will open it up for you. Just explain you are having to use the antenna just to get the signal and the service. Many had to do this because of their security.

  • @heyguesswhatimdead

    Does this work with using a regular phone sim from Visible sort of like your video on the mofi?

    • @CouchPotatoCafe
      @CouchPotatoCafe  2 года назад

      Visible is not allowing this because it is not under the same IMEI the sim was registered to so it will cap at 5

  • @werewolf1251
    @werewolf1251 3 года назад +1

    • @CouchPotatoCafe
      @CouchPotatoCafe  3 года назад +4

      It does work with visible actually it worked really good but I feel Visible will know the IMEI change relatively quickly and cap the speeds. I have talked with Elsys about this and they said they will research more about developer options :)

    I just bought the Elsys with an AT&T tablet plan and using my cell signal booster I get a strong signal and the best internet out here in the woods yet! That is to say, 15 up and 2 down with a ping around 70, but it beats the >5 upload we were getting over DSL and 1000 ping with satellite internet. Couch- do you have any tips on how to configure settings to reduce ping and enhance using a VPN and video calls? Thanks!
