h1. Accelerate3g5 -- andreas 

 h2. Summary and Ideas 

 Main goal is testing the 3g network based on free software and a nano3G femotcell with different test devices (TD) 
 *    TD1: Acer Liquid M330, Dual-SIM Windows Phone E3336 with Windows10 Mobile 
 *    TD2: LG G3 LG-D855 android Phone with Android 7.1.1 (LineageOS 14.1 nightly build) 
 *    TD3: Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 GT-P5100 with Android 4.4.4 (CyanogenMod 11 nightly build) 
 *    TD4: Huawei HSPA+ USB stick E1823 (used mainly with debian8) 

 Another aim is to extend the documentation to help users with little or no experiences with UMTS-networks. 

 h2. Journal 

 2017-03-08 The nano3G femotcell arrived. 

 2017-03-13 Software is running. First successful registration of TD2 and TD3 

 2017-03-19 Successfully tested voice-calls and sending SMS between TD1, TD2, TD3 

 2017-03-26 TD1, TD2 and TD3 have internet-connection via HSDPA. 
 Results of browser-based internet speedtests of devices connected to the nano3G with an internet connection of 250 Mbit/s down and 20 MBit/s upstream:  
 * TD1: 5852 kbit/s downstream and 488 kbit/s upstream 
 * TD2: 6430 kbit/s down- and 481 kbit/s upstream.  

 2017-03-31 First tests with TD4 and wvdial/pppd: Connection worked, but Modem hangup after CHAP-authentification 

 2017-04-01 Using the latest sources from git with TD4 the pppd now gets an IP-address. 

 2017-04-08 After changing the wvdial.conf to force the Huawei E1823 to register on the network, with "AT+CREG"-command, the IP-connection via pppd is working now. 
 Results of browser-based internet speedtests of devices connected to the nano3G with an internet connection of 250 Mbit/s down and 20 MBit/s upstream:  
 * TD4: 6871 kbit/s downstream and 438 kbit/s upstream 


 h2. FAQ 

 Problems, issues, topics which came up during the setup of the nano3G, configuration of the software and running the 3G-network. 

 * SIM / USIM 

 Q: Is it possible to use a USIM-card from a commercial provider? 
 A: No, you need to know the Ki-key which cannot be read from the USIM-card. 

 Q: Is it possible to use a SIM-card? 
 A: No, only USIM-cards work with the 3G-network.
