QUOTE(digilife @ Sep 3 2012, 08:20 PM) A few dBm in signal changes wont affect the speed much. Yes, I agree with you a few dBm changes wont affect much speed.Could it be that there were some background DL running in your PC that you were unaware of during the "problematic time" ? Or that you were connected to a far far away Cell during that time, but who do the routing for you during those times? I suspect the new tower cause the problem, did u notice of different cell id I get in the MDMA (the pic i post in maxis forum) ?? The new cell id cause the slow speed problem. 2 days ago, I tried 6hours to connect back to old cell id 20478 and my speed recover but it only maintain for one minute before it switch back to cell id 6xxxx and my speed sucks again. New tower is nearer to my area (bottom of mountain) and give me better signal. (-77dbm) Old tower is on the middle of the mountain, far from my area, have weaker signal. (-89dbm) Last time I never have cell id start with 6xxxx and I get descent speed all the time. Just starting from last 2 week, I notice my modem connected to the new cell id start from 6xxxx and I couldn't get back my old cell id 20478 which give me high speed. I am pretty sure there is no background DL running in my pc. I have bandwidth monitor tools to check and my process list is clean (no dl manager process). =) This post has been edited by Ruzumaki: Sep 3 2012, 09:00 PM |

QUOTE(digilife @ Sep 3 2012, 09:13 PM) Yes, point the Yagi to the HSPA+ tower(20478) and dun let the DC HSPA+ tower suck you in as mostly pipu connected to that congested tower.........u sure suffer..but if at 4am, i am sure tower 6xxxx give u damn good speed, no? Both 20478 & 6xxxx is DC HSPA+ towerLast time there is no 6xxxx cell id and tower at my house area. When 6xxxx appear in my area, it give me sucks speed all the time. Even I point to 20478 tower hor, I can't connect to it anymore due to 6xxxx tower signal strength higher.  It is super hard and rare for my modem to connect to 20478 tower now. Only today the 6xxxx start to give me good speed but unstable compare to 20478. I guess they started to do maintenance on new tower d  This post has been edited by Ruzumaki: Sep 3 2012, 09:44 PM |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Sep 3 2012, 11:37 PM) If your place is DCHSPA+ covered, a DC HSPA+ modem only will make full use of the dual carriage data Thanks for clearing the doubt, might consider upgrade to DC HSPA+ modem as well But for sure, need to consider congestion factor, but with E367 it can go up to 10mbps, its good to upgrade  |

My MR3420 cannot survive with TP-link official firmware.
Official firmware throttle my speed to 0.1~0.01mbps speed So I did some research and found the tutorial to flash openwrt on this website. I find it very Newbie Friendly, so I decided to share the link here. http://www.kaskus.co.id/showthread.php?t=10124215 Don't forget to remove the %2A when download the openwrt firmware http://www.4%2Ashared.com/file/LqtTaVCL/openwrt-mr3420-v1-squashfs-fac.html Flashing openwrt require patient and time, configure can be tough for newbie. I manage to install miniupnp and setup DNS myself by googling for 1 days. I brick once my MR3420 once for wrong DNS configuration, but I manage to save back my router due to the very powerful failover function. Openwrt is damn fast and powerful, allow 3G modem to successfully dial connection within 10sec. Damn love openwrt now, my speed damn so consistent all the time 10mbps++ Now I facing a problem is that my 3G modem will dc after idle sometime (few hour), it always dc when there is very less Active IP Connections. (DC when I didn't open any download) I always face dc problem when I put the connection to be on and idle overnight. Although I have set my auto-disconnect value to 0 or a very large value, the DC problem still occur when there is very less Active IP Connections and it idle for long time. The auto-reconnect function in Openwrt is not working as what I expected I saw something like this in my log, I notice there is auto-reconnect mechanism running but it is not successful. I click restart connection button on openwrt network interface webconfig page but it still fail to connect. I found that I have to manually restart the network interface (WAN) so that it only can successfuly reconnect. I use ifdown wan0 ifup wan0 in SSH to let it restart the network interface. Anyone have idea/script how to solve this? Logs » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This post has been edited by Ruzumaki: Oct 17 2012, 07:35 PM |

QUOTE(xernix @ Oct 17 2012, 10:30 PM) Just set a cron job for the router to ping something every minute so that the connection wil not become idle. Good idea =) It's under System > Scheduled Task. Example command: * * * * * /bin/ping -q -s 1 -c 60 8.8.8.8 & > /dev/null That command will ping Google DNS 60 times every minute. But if the 3G connection dropped, openwrt still unable to reconnect itself... haiz |

QUOTE(chuahcs79 @ Oct 18 2012, 08:15 PM) i give up,... chuahcs79,cause tons of headaches, and back to stock firmware now,.. speed is awesome with stock firmware, so i guess i have to stay here as super noob in linux  I think the problem that your MF680 and E372 is not detected is due to this 2 module usb-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch-data I having the same problem becos I follow blindly on kizwan guide. kizwan guide is very good already, I think he just forgot to mention on usb-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch-data Remember to reboot router after install all the module I manage to connected to 3G using ttyUSB1 |

QUOTE(kizwan @ Oct 18 2012, 09:15 PM) Thank you to both of you for pointing that out. I only have one modem, so I don't know the importance of the two packages. I already updated my guide here:- kizwan post should really pin on first page, very useful guide =Dhttp://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry55423902 That is odd. It shouldn't doesn't matter. Anyway, your feedback can help others with the same modem. Congratulations!

Actions -> Filter -> Find package -> 'miniupnpd' 2. After install don't forget to navigate System-> Startup, Enable and start the package you have installed |
