oh yes, the cover, i forgot to mention that, you have to flip open it then only you can see the connector.

btw anyone have any solution for reduce speed while connecting to mr3420? i got 6mbps speed when connected directly from modem to laptop, but got a reduction when connecting thru mr3420 down to 3mbps-4mbps....any solution guys?  notworthy.gif

right now im using the kind of pigtail to convert from the rp-sma to e367 connector, will it be better to use the direct plug converter like the one u use?  notworthy.gif
*
depends on the convertor, mine come with panel antenna whole set from Blacktubi, and the quality is gold plated as well,

signal wise i am getting Full RSSI : -51dBm and it never change a bit even heavy raining or lightning

your pigtail connector is it gold plated hmm.gif

did u fully setup the TL-MR3420 interface ? u can try download modem bin file from tp link websites and test whether your connection is improve notworthy.gif

mr3420 v1 we can flip it cause it rectangle like chuah pic, but v3 cant i think because of it shape........................V1 OR V2, which u guys vote for long term support(2-5years in the future) ?
*
i personally prefer V1 or V1.3 due to the shape as some modem need to standing straight up

there is only V1, V1.3 and V2 bro notworthy.gif

i cant find my e367 bin file from tp-link website? can help me point to the true path? you dont have same problem as me? meaning connecting directly from modem -> pc will yield same performance as modem->mr3420->pc ?  notworthy.gif
*
yea my same speed now direct plug in pc and router both same speed thumbup.gif

can't find any in tp link websites,

guess u have to use the usb sniffer tools by TP link to create the modem bin file for yourself,

have you tweak the modem tx power yet ? hmm.gif

right now this is my setup:

[attachmentid=3138024]
i found that every 8 hours the internet connection will go down and i have to restart the router. anyone experience this before? i find that both the modem and router is very slightly warm, although i tried to stress test them to download at full capable speed for more than 3 hours.....the fan blowing the router and the wind goes straight up to the modem to cool it down.....

and my second issue is, will using the long usb cable (as in the pict) will affect signal strenght and stability of our connection?
*
after the fan blowing @ router, did u touch the router to check whether still warm ?

my combination blowing router + modem together, when i touch my router is cold,

and the usb extension you use it is USB2.0 cable ? hmm.gif

ah yes, the router is just cold and the modem is slightly warm, i can say that it is not warm at all....but every 8 hours (i timed it inside the router uptime)

and im using usb 2.0 cable, does using usb3.0 makes a different? and how about the lengh? notworthy.gif
*
make sure u setup connect automatically & 0 in max idle time under network -> 3G

it should be able to auto reconnect when DC,..

if this happen every single day since day 1 you use this ISP, try other ISP sim and see whether u get DC in 8 hours,.

do you think direct cable connection may obtain higher speed and low ping compare with wifi?

of course direct Lan cable always beat wifi notworthy.gif

if u off the wifi and using Lan cable alone, u might see some speed improvement brows.gif

how about a 30 feets lan cable?  blush.gif

that's too long,..

if your router too far from your computer,

too long lan cable is strongly not suggested,

instead you should try Powerline Lan adapter notworthy.gif

still like V1, V1.3 compare V2

with openWRT. no need so much time to boot up. 20seconds enough to Online
very like openWRT since now.

about cooling, really need buy extra fan.
using those RM14.90 fan at All IT hypermarket. really worth.

anywhere, V1.3 with openWRT still the best so far
*
totaly agree , love the V1 still,

V1 still the best for me

no wifi issue, no delay issue, no request time out issue,

fast start up, fast Auto reconnect, Fast dial modem after start up in 5 second , less buggy, no more modem bin file need for better performances,

as for fan wise, my modem need it for cooling so just blow at both together icon_rolleyes.gif

and speed is super consistent + Panel antenna, result = biggrin.gif
