Airave Connectivity

[Techrocket9]

I am unable to connect my eVOLTe to my Airave access point. All the other phones in the house (two Pixis, a Pre, an OG EVO, and a Hero) are able to connect flawlessly and go from one bar to full in the process. However, my new eVOLTe flickers on one bar, occasionally dropping to VZW roaming. This is the case even if none of the other phones are present in the house, and I have never enabled any of the restricted phone settings on the Airave.

I was wondering if anyone had experienced similar issues, and if so, if they had found a solution.

Don't know if this will work because I'm away from home and can't confirm. In the mobile network settings is a setting to turn lte off, cdma only mode. My guess is the cdma/lte mode is what's causing the issue.

Airave allows 5 devices at one time. Try connecting to it without one of the other devices using it.

Already tried that

Now that I'm home I see it's working just fine, I have 3 devices accessing it.

I've been having issues as well, my issues are with sms. I keep getting the same messages over and over from people and I'm unable to send any. I just unplugged it before I saw your suggestion to change the phone to CDMA only. I switched it and I'm waiting for the Airave to connect. We'll see if it helps.

Edit: Airave is back up and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks for the tip.

Alas...

Alas, CDMA mode did nothing to connect me to the Airave.

I had the same problem... Was in phone with customer service for almost 2 hours... Then I asked about my airrave and they said reset it... And it fixed it right away.. then they gave me a 25 dollar credit for spending almost 2 hours on the phone.

I had an issue like this when I first got my EVO LTE a few days ago. At first I couldn't connect and then it would let me make phone calls but all text messages would appear as if they failed and even if I retried sending 20 times they would fail. I personally think it was my old phone (OG EVO 4G) causing a problem as it was still on and my EVO LTE would never connect to my Airave! I played with it for over an hour trying to get it to work but then I thought of turning my old phone off and then resetting/unplugging the Airave and when it came back online my new EVO LTE connected without issue and I haven't had a problem since! See if that works for you?

It works now

Then I asked about my airrave and they said reset it...

It's working now. Thank you for the tip. I wonder if it installed a firmware update that was pushed to it during the reset...

If your phone is not yet activated, DO NOT activate it with an airrave present. For some reason, the OTA activation doesn't work right unless you're connected to a real tower.

FWIW, also try changing your Roaming to "Sprint Only", and also, update your PRL.

Mine finally connected when I did that as well as changing from LTE/CDMA to CDMA only.

Wow! worked perfectly... after getting a headache with sprint support...
I tried rebooting moden router, airrave... lucky for me I saw your post about the non active phone being on, I turned it off, rebooted the airrave, and I can now send text messages again....
good tip!! thanks so much for the help
