QUOTE gcom returns the signal quality in RSSI (Received signal strength indication) and in BER (Bit error rate, reported in percent). A higher RSSI value represents a stronger signal - scale is from 0 to 99, where 1 is the lowest detectable signal and 31 a very good signal. Don't expect your signal to go all the way up to 99, though. If BER returns 99 it means not known or not detectable. Source from here Added on November 3, 2012, 12:46 amso mine is root@OpenWrt:~# gcom sig /etc/ttyUSB0 Trying list of devices Signal Quality: 29,99 so i guess mine consider super good already since 31 is quite max ?

Bro any idea which length of USB 2.0 Extension should i get from MR3420?? That will not effect the power output. I am doing the Soya Bean box method now directly plug in from modem only seems like signal dropping dramatically.

MR3420 V2, simple and short review Rm85 @ LYP Nothing special, just cooler, no need extra fan, you see its bottom and you understands why no need fan. Another good feature, Side modem plug-in, better reception compared to V1 (back plug-in). » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

@Chuah,
You should try Tomato firmware on Asus RT-N15u, rm189, support 3GUSB modem http://www.linksysinfo.org/index.php?threa...y-tomato.37175/
