Tomorrow going to receive my MR3420 router. Do i need to do any setting on my E1762 Modem before using it to MR3420? This modem is a gift from Maxis. Whenever i plug in my laptop it will autorun and pop up.
Thanks for the help

I dun know how to change the "admin" from 3420 but i managed to change its IP to 198.162.2.1
OK?
Just now try to use MDMA and wanna to c the negotiated QoS showed in MDMA but turn out failed. I tried steps below but getting error 680. Anyone out there can help me?
1) go to open network and sharing centre
2) set new connection or network
3) connect to internet
‎4) choose dial up
5) set the *99# dial number
6) connection name -> MDMA
7) click connect
8) click skip
9) done
10) disable Netbios at MDMA connection (under the advance setting)
11) run MDMA
12) click connect
Error 680

Very weird. Using laptop thru TP 3420 ping is much lower than if using Ipad... . Ipad is around 150 ~ 280. But laptop ping is around 40~80. Check many times also the same. Just now try to change to b/g from b/g/n, speed is more stable and constant. Right now stick to this b/g mode. Channel wise let it to Auto mode since my Streamyx is fixed at Channel 11.

Speed so far is ok now but night time very bad. Only 1 M and upload is worst 0.03M

Yup. I think also too, esp peak hrs. No choice, so far umobile is considered good in my place. Maybe later will try out Maxis again. Hopefully their system upgraded in my place.
Btw, i am quite doubtful abt the ping value. When i tested ipad, the ping is above 150 but below 200 all the time. My laptop so far is the best, all the time below 90. Today early morning test ipon, very bad, very bad above 250 but below 300. Very strange.
Tested these 3 toys again n again this morning 6am also giving me the same thing. My conclusion is not the tp 3420 router. It is not the modem too. It is the device itself.
But again, when i use back the streamys modem but connected to streamyx, which is chap ayam Riger my laptop ping is quite similar to ipad. Both below 75, n their variances is very close. In fact, ping for ipad is lower than laptop at all time.
Maybe apple products very sensitive to freq 3G. Router + 3g freq = no good. Today will try use some extension to apart the modem n router.

Hmmm. Tested few things.
Apart away modem to router, 1 feet. No diff
Setting router channel from auto to 11. No diff
Changing router mode to only n, g, bgn, bg. No big diff. Stick back mode bg.
Ipad Ping value still high compare to laptop.

Added on April 29, 2012, 5:43 pmIs TP Link MR3420 support Huawei E372? Anyone tried before? I can't see it in their compatibility list. If supported, do we need to upgrade MR3420 firmware before using it?
Thanks.
