Hello,
I have installed several dongles E353s-2 on this routers (ROS 6.27) without any problem, it’s recognized as PPP device and go on.
I’ve purchased a lot of E353 dongles, but I discover now they are E353W2-s. Panic!
The dongle is recognized as LTE device, but no IP is assigned, no route installed, no port present…
What can I do?
Is this device supported?
Can I “downgrade” to E353s-2 replacing firmware? and how?
Thank you very much.
The dongle is recognized as LTE
Well that’s a good start… is that LTE interface in (R)unning mode? If not, have you set the APN or PIN if required and what does show the LTE/info window ?
If LTE is (R)unning, have you added a dhcp client on it ?
LTE interface is in Running mode.
APN is set.
DHCP added, but nothing happens; same result assigning a static IP (172.21.163.2. LAN is the default 192.168.88.0).
LTE info opens an error window: “Couldn’t start - Modem does not have serial interface! (6)”
Most probably this is the problem, but how to activate this serial port?
Thank you

It looks like this new dongle isn’t properly recognized by RouterOS. Do you have the latest ROS version with latest firmware ? You might have to send some supout file to support and wait for them to add this dongle in a next release…
Your modem is not present on thist list:

If You are desperated try to change Data Channel and Info Channel. Go to Interfece ppp, press Advance Mode button and get lucky.
