I have tried to upgrade the firmware via the command line, shows "downloading", but just seems to sit there and do nothing no matter how long I wait.

Thoughts?

Thanks, tp

Well, that’s not very reassuring 😒

So I have done this a lot of times. What version of ROS are you running. They have made improvements to the update process in newer versions.

Update:

Mikrotik has provided to me the possibility to update using an adapter from USB to miniPCIe. I bought 2 different models and only one works. The model that not work recognized successfully R11e-LTE but not R11e-LTE-US. I saw that not just any model works with this LTE module. I recommend this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/4G-LTE-IOT-Min ... SwX2teW2jX

With this adapter, I updated successfully his firmware to the latest version.

I not know if I can distribute here the firmware and tools to do the update. To this please contact directly with MikroTik support.

Another thing. Some time ago one of the LTE modules I updated successfully but on resources, the LTE module was recognized as "Android" not "R11e-LTE-US". Now I reflashed the updated version using the adapter and now yes is correctly recognized as R11e-LTE-US. I not know what happened.

Regards.
