Slate (AR750s) Tethering issue

[yairmohr]

Hi everyone.

My brand new AR750s-Ext has an odd issue:
When I tether it to my Galaxy S10e via USB, any device connected to the router fails to access any website - except google.com and youtube.com, which work as usual. Access to any other domain gets a speed of less than 1KBps (that’s not an error - 1 Kilobyte per second) and fails to load the website for hours.
I tried it on 2 different laptops, connecting them to the Slate via WiFi and Ethernet - nothing helps.
When I tether the same phone to the same router over WiFi Hotspot, the speed is normal - but I bought it to use USB-tethering. The same phone works great when tethering directly to any laptop via either USB or WiFi hotspot.

Does anyone have any idea what can be causing this strange issue?

Can you try changing ttl

Change outgoing TTL

Hi all, Cool little router. Having a couple issues though that I hope someone could help with. I have been messing with the firewall rules to change the outgoing TTL to 65, but I can’t seem to get it to work. Looking at the packages installed, everything is there for mangle and Postrouting… So I am a bit lost… I have tried: iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -j TTL --ttl-set 65 and iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o get_wanface -j TTL --ttl-set 65 but no luck. Edit: figured out the ssh i…

Thanks for your reply @alzhao.
Sorry, I forgot to mention I was already referred by one of the Facebook page team memers to that thread, and added the next rule to the firewall:

iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING 1 -j TTL --ttl-set 65

It didn’t make any difference

Sounds like you are using IPV6, not a lot out there will connect on IPV6. Check your IPV4 settings.

Thanks @drice, but according to all settings I can find I’m using IPv4 (at least all IP addresses I can see are IPv4 and the IPv6 section under the Luci interface is empty and says “there’s no lease”).
