First of all, this is what im getting currently
 ISP: Elisa (I live in Estonia) Huawei E367 + TP-Link MR3420 + External antenna. Signal strength is 74% (-67dBm), transmitter is about 200m away. 1) Would buying a DC-HSPA+ dongle give me better signal/speed/stability, even if we don't transmit DC-HSPA+? 2) Which is the best dongle you can currently get (excluding 4G ones)? 3) Would updating the E367's firmware to the latest give me any boost in speed or stability? |

QUOTE(chuahcs79 @ Sep 14 2012, 07:31 PM) well I think the Huawei E3131 model is not available in asia region here and hardly can encounter it Just that I managed to broke the antenna port on my E367, so the antenna input doesnt want to stay in place and I have to use duct tape for that, which is a big mess, so I have been thinking of replacing it with E3131, but there is no information or comparisons on the internet.but I think there is a similar model to it, Huawei E353,.. similar specs, is this -> Huawei E3131 ? you can try, it should work with TP-LINK 3G router as it is very flexible 3G router accept most brand of usb modem |

QUOTE(chuahcs79 @ Sep 14 2012, 07:58 PM) if u are using CRC9 convertor connect your modem, please be real careful when u pull it out,. the huawei external antenna hole gold ring is very fragile,.. The inner ring is in one piece, but the outer plastic ring, that holds the antenna in the port, broke off, so i just had to force the antenna into the contact and tape it down. i broke my huawei E1762 before,. so i know |

QUOTE(chuahcs79 @ Sep 14 2012, 08:15 PM) if u have the budget, best consider DC-HSPA+ 42Mbps modem instead of HSPA+ 21Mbps modem, it will at least increase your speed DC-HSPA+ isnt transmitted by my ISP, we do have an ISP, that does, but the signal doesnt spread to my area. Also only E372 is being sold here and that costs a fortune (110 EUR, which is around 450 in your currency). |

QUOTE(wkkm007 @ Sep 14 2012, 08:46 PM) did u order 1 haha My network is 21Mbits, so its HSPA+. Added on September 15, 2012, 2:01 am maybe you just get an 7.2mbps modem since you can't use the H+ net. this should be cheaper. Do your country service provide free modem with sim lock or contract on some broadband plan? My country provides a free unlocked modem depending on what subscription I take. As I took the most expensive one with no DL, UL and bandwidth limits I got the E367 for free. |
