Im also thinking use HUB, so i can put 2 Diferent provider into 1 router.
Wonder, can use on MR3420 stock firmware..

things just got more interesting with the load balancers

I googled and Pepwave appeared.

But the router cost like 2K USD..

A cheaper and easy solution is Mikrotik

Buy 2 MR3420. 1 3G dongle on each of the router

Plug both of the LAN to Mikrotik and setup on Mikrotik.

Another solution is very cheapskate I better not mention here

well stability on the ISP that u load balance is very very important,

as 3G load balance is not like ADSL2+ / fibre load balance for sure

Since they wanna load balance Celcom and Maxis

Or should be say as fail over multi wan.

Provide redundancy. As 3G load balance same telco only render up congestion

Load balance Unifi 10 mbps and Maxis must be yummy

Which model of the MikroTik to use?

Btw, your WR1043ND also can rite as its OpenWRT flashed too........

Is it easy to flash OpenWRT onto WR1043ND, same as MR3420?

yea exactly same step on 1043ND like MR3420

same steps, but have to DL different file rite?

and 3G USB modem support is enabled after flashing to OpenWRT, rite?

1043ND USB support is bugged one and got some weird issue with WAN disabled

btw, can i knoe how you use this 1043ND ? use ONLY its WiFi or WiFi+LAN of just as a "bridge"?

and now i am using e1762 on HW550, i too get the super low ping of 29 on CMD

this e1762 is virgin one, not yet supercharged too

1043ND got a USB port

Any device with USB port as long as can use with OpenWRT and no hardware issue can 3G easily

Usually I make it all in one because I don't have space to place many device

very risky
later brick susah la bro
i prefer easy set up ..using load balacing device more easy ..

just passing by....
i love to read ppl conversations...
give me a lot of new information...

loading openwrt have fail safe. And flashing is not that difficult as you can refer to fruitie.

what is the difference speed between E372 and MF680......cause i go to my friend house and he get free both modem and the different speed is 5MBPS/....is that true

MF680
-Faster than E372
-Will get hot and unstable if not cooled

E372
-Very stable modem
-Slower speed than MF680
