I tried it last night. I want to see if I get faster speed with openwrt firmware. (Bringing you back to the past; do you remember that my SE phone when connected to the router, speed is slow? Because of this, I didn't use the router, I just plug my SE phone directly to my notebook.) Everything configured except I can't open any website. I can ping, nslookup & everything but I can't open any website. I checked & found out the firewall in the router blocked port 80 (http). Since it's very late when I try this, I didn't tried my best to solved the firewall problem. So, I flashed with original firmware before I go to sleep.

@shinichi87, can you help me solved the firewall issue? Thanks.

when i plug my SE W705 into my router, speed is normal and everything work fine, just that router dial the phone slow sometimes takes around 15~45sec,.. and the H signal is gone by the time router start dialing,.. doh.gif

1) download openwrt firmware from http://ecco.selfip.net/gargoyle-pl/ar71xx/...hfs-factory.bin

2) upgrade your tl-mr3420 firmware just as you normally do with the openwrt firmware you just downloaded

3) you will see your web interface like this

[attachmentid=2594131]

4) the default password for the web GUI is 'password' without the '. after you have enter the password, it will ask for new password you want to use for the web GUI.

5) next configure your router setting similar like this, 3g UMTS and set your apn / username /password. also configure your wifi as needed, then you're done

[attachmentid=2594133]

6) if you want to change to stock firmware, you can go to here
[attachmentid=2594134]

so does this open wrt support se phone like stock firmware ? or it only support usb modem ?

well i dont have experience with that, never tried. but i think it should be able to detect the phone at least, if the stock firmware can. you can always revert to your previous firmware without any problem.

yea i am trying to flash it now,. will try what device it can support, as the stock firmware is really poor,. because most people using open wrt saying comments that it does help on boost performances on modem instead of like mine drag down the performances,.. sweat.gif

Just tested with that open wrt,.. too bad it cannot support SE phone,. sweat.gif

and the status pages even show the signal in % and RSSI in -dBm too,. good firmware though,..

but it doesnt make any different in speed, still have to depends on what modem we use,.

summary for people who using this router with SE phone, best is stay with stock firmware,.. hmm.gif

I just bought this router and while surfing through TP-Link's website I notice that it has different firmware versions. What is the correct version to use or is it like D-link that says not to upgrade if bought out of South East Asia?
*
just check whether ur current firmware is newer or the websites is newer.. if your current firmware is working fine for your router , just leave it and dont upgrade,..

if u feel like there is slightly problems and so on, u can choose to upgrade it,. download from the websites,..

Finally, I get correct 3G speed now with OpenWRT firmware. The pppd in original firmware is not compatible with my SE phone. That's why I got low speed. Now, the speed I get using this 3G router is similar with what I get when connected directly to notebook.

I use OpenWRT firmware from Trunk & using manual installation method.

I use "Web interface" (in "None" column), Branch Trunk ( http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3420 ). Remember, this one doesn't have Web GUI & 3G function. So you need to install Web GUI & 3G function manually ( http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=47556174 ).

I don't know whether Nokia phones are supported or not. If your phones, regardless any brands, works in linux, so I guess it should work with OpenWRT firmware.

just though is kind of like wasted since nokia X3-02 can get me high speed in maxis, but kind of like no point if i cannot use it with my this router to share the connection,.. using connectify is sometimes troublesome,. hmm.gif

If your nokia can connect using ppp in linux, it should work with this router too using openwrt firmware.

not very sure whether nokia can work with linux or not, because i am not very good in linux, sweat.gif sweat.gif

my current stock firmware cannot dial this nokia x3-02 phone,. but the 3G LED light is ON,..

I was comtemplating between MR3420 and WR1043 for few days upto last minutes when I was in shop.
I could not decide betwwen the 2, I dont need the 3G on MR3420, and I dont need the disk share on Wr1043.
cost about 50% different.

just for the term Gigabit, at the end i opted for WR1043. may need the SG1005D gigabit switch in later stage.

well either one of it is good choices,.. thumbup.gif

hi all..help needed..just bought my tp link mr3220 router today..rm75 at digital mall..now my router cannot detect my ZTE MF190 ( umobile)..how to make it? already try using instruction from page 1 :-

type in AT+ZCDRUN=8 (Disable cd /flashdrive autorun )
-> press enter

after press enter the msg appear :- 'AT+ZCDRUN' not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

any idea? tq
*
well, first of all, u need to plug your ZTE MF190 in your pc, then install the dialer software for your pc to recognize this zte mf190 modem. after all drivers install then u can start this

For window xp :

-> plug in your zte modem in pc/laptop
-> wait for your pc/laptop to recognize your modem ( close the dialer if it pop up )
-> click start
-> click run
-> type in CMD ( comand prompt )
-> type in AT+ZCDRUN=8 (Disable cd /flashdrive autorun )
-> press enter
-> done ( u will see a message showing that autorun is diable now )
-> unplug your modem from pc now
-> plug it into TP Link 3G router
-> router will auto recognize it now and start dialer your ZTE modem

For window 7:

->plug your ZTE modem into your pc/laptop
-> wait for pc/laptop to recognise it ( close the dialer if it pop up )
-> click start
-> enter CMD in search column
-> type in AT+ZCDRUN=8 (Disable cd /flashdrive autorun )
-> press enter
-> done ( u will see a message showing u that autorun is disable )
-> unplug the modem from pc
-> plug it in your TP Link 3G router
-> router will auto recognize it now and start dialer your ZTE modem

There is few people using ZTE MF190 with tp link router, they follow those steps and their router can recognize the zte mf190 modem now. ( for tp link router to recognize Zte modem, u will have to do those step to turn off the autorun CD function.. )

hope this helps,..

I have this issue for my E1762 (not sure why) doh.gif random disconnection and very slow to reconnect. So for me the fastest way is to reboot the modem (in some cases, I have to power off and on the router).

I notice if the line (maxis) is down (due to bad weather/no signal), it will somehow hang my router doh.gif

Currently using my old K3565, and so far stable for the last 2 weeks.

btw some antenna and it manage to boost up the signal from 10 to 50% smile.gif
*
well, if u using maxis, u could try to use MDMA to force your E1762 work on single 3G band 900 or 2100 instead of scanning through out all signal available before can connect,..

u can download it here

refer here

open the file u download, then plug your E1762 in your computer, and go under band config to select single 3G signal u want to use, and then click apply and ok, and unplug it from pc and plug in router,.. ur router will dialer faster than last time,..

hope it helps you outs,.. notworthy.gif
