Tether to a GO2 wifiranger

[Roy & Ann]

I have a Go2 which is tethered to a Verizon AC791L JetPack. Whenever I connect the USB tether is asks me to choose "Charge or Tether" I then choose tether and it connects with no problem.

The problem is, if the Cell signal drops I have to go thru the same procedure. If I go from local WiFi to Cell, same thing. I am told it is a problem with the AC791 and there is no control from the Go2. Does anyone else having this problem and is there a setting in the AC791 to eliminate this step?

 

Thanks

Roy

There's a setting in the AC791 to turn off the prompt.

 

You can't get to it from the device itself though, you have to log into it via the web control panel.

I know how to get into the device, but which setting?

Go to the Jetpack Settings tab on the right.

Go to the Jetpack tab on the top row.

Go to the Preferences tab on the second row.

 

There's a section about halfway down the page for "USB Connection (tethering)"

 

Uncheck the top option (Prompt on Jetpack screen ....).

That did it, Thanks

 

One thing, I had to change the box below from "Charge" to "Charge + Tether"

 

Thanks again for your help
