5 | 25 | anmu | Main goal is testing the 3g network based on free open source software from osmocom-project and a nano3G femotcell from ip.access with different test devices (TD) |
6 | 5 | anmu | * TD1: Acer Liquid M330, Dual-SIM Windows Phone E3336 with Windows10 Mobile |
7 | * TD2: LG G3 LG-D855 android Phone with Android 7.1.1 (LineageOS 14.1 nightly build) |
||
8 | * TD3: Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 GT-P5100 with Android 4.4.4 (CyanogenMod 11 nightly build) |
||
9 | 2 | anmu | * TD4: Huawei HSPA+ USB stick E1823 (used mainly with debian8) |
10 | 38 | anmu | * TD5: iPhone5 32GB with iOS 10.3.1 |
11 | 29 | anmu | * TD6: Huawei HSPA+ USB stick E1823 |
12 | 41 | anmu | * TD7: Samsung Galaxy S5 duos SM0G900FD with Android 7.1.1 (LineageOS 14.1 nightly build) |
13 | 1 | anmu | |
14 | 30 | anmu | Another aim is to extend the documentation and to share my experiences compiling, installing and configuring the software to help users with little or no experiences with UMTS-networks. |

18 | 7 | anmu | 2017-03-08 The nano3G femotcell arrived. |
19 | |||
20 | 5 | anmu | 2017-03-13 Software is running. First successful registration of TD2 and TD3 |
21 | |||
22 | 13 | anmu | 2017-03-19 Successfully tested voice-calls and sending SMS between TD1, TD2, TD3 |
23 | 8 | anmu | |
24 | 5 | anmu | 2017-03-26 TD1, TD2 and TD3 have internet-connection via HSDPA. |
25 | 14 | anmu | 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: |
26 | 11 | anmu | * TD1: 5852 kbit/s downstream and 488 kbit/s upstream |
27 | * TD2: 6430 kbit/s down- and 481 kbit/s upstream. |

29 | 2017-03-31 First tests with TD4 and wvdial/pppd: Connection worked, but Modem hangup after CHAP-authentification |
||
30 | |||
31 | 2017-04-01 Using the latest sources from git with TD4 the pppd now gets an IP-address. |
||
32 | 9 | anmu | |
33 | 25 | anmu | 2017-04-08 After changing the "wvdial.conf":https://osmocom.org/attachments/2601/wvdial.conf to force the TD4 to register on the UMTS-network, with "AT+CREG"-command, the IP-connection via pppd is working now. |
34 | 21 | anmu | 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: |
35 | * TD4: 6871 kbit/s downstream and 438 kbit/s upstream |

36 | 17 | anmu | |
37 | 37 | anmu | 2017-04-20 New Testing devices arrived: An iPhone5 with iOS 10.3.1 (TD5) for checking iOS and another Huawei HSPA+ USB stick E1823 (TD6) for testing data-connections between PCs. |
38 | 9 | anmu | |
39 | 40 | anmu | 2017-05-21 After solving problems the HLR, the iPhone5 (TD5) is now able to connect to the 3G Network: |
40 | 39 | anmu | 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: |
41 | * TD5: 5659 kbit/s downstream and 482 kbit/s upstream |
||
42 | 41 | anmu | |
43 | 2017-06-17 For TD7 it seems to be important to have the own USIM in the first SIM cardslot, otherwise the phone is not able to "see" the UMTS-network - even when searching for networks it is not found. |

44 | 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: |
||
45 | 42 | anmu | * TD7: 18.972 kbit/s downstream and 619 kbit/s upstream |

48 | |||
49 | Problems, issues, topics which came up during the setup of the nano3G, configuration of the software and running the 3G-network. |
||
50 | 36 | anmu | Some of this points here may be included in the main documentation, some may be deprecated, so please refer to the main documentation for |
51 | 35 | anmu | "Configuring the ip.access nano3G":http://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Configuring_the_ipaccess_nano3G and "Getting started with 3G":http://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Getting_Started_with_3G |

53 | 27 | anmu | h3. SIM / USIM |
54 | 10 | anmu | |
55 | 9 | anmu | Q: Is it possible to use a USIM-card from a commercial provider? |
56 | 16 | anmu | A: No, you need to know the Ki-key which cannot be read from the USIM-card. |
57 | 9 | anmu | |
58 | Q: Is it possible to use a SIM-card? |
||
59 | A: No, only USIM-cards work with the 3G-network. |

61 | 31 | anmu | h3. nano3G |
62 | |||
63 | 34 | anmu | Q: How can I set up the nano3G femtocell as described in "Configuring the ip.access nano3G":http://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Configuring_the_ipaccess_nano3G automatically? |
64 | 32 | anmu | A: It is possible to use netcat (nc) to pipe the needed commands to the nano3G, assuming it has 192.168.1.20 as IP address: |
65 | 31 | anmu | *echo -e 'action 2061\naction 1216\naction establishPermanentHnbGwConnection'|nc -v 192.168.1.20 8090* |

67 | 27 | anmu | h3. HLR |
68 | 26 | anmu | |
69 | Q: How to create the HLR? |
||
70 | A: Use the hlr.sql included in osmo-hlr software and create the HLR with: *cat hlr.sql | sqlite3 hlr.sqlite3* |
