oh yours is the CELL ID issue,.

did both is similar ID ? or different ID ?

otherwise...try other telco broadband....

getting minimum speed as stated in maxis site:

Glad that it stayed more than one day

May I know where is the statement?

I need it in some case

i wanna ask, is tp-link portable router the one with battery one good? or any better one which i can plug my e372.. i wan portable becos sometimes i can bring outside to use..

CFM form

This morning speed not bad
setup: zte mf680 + V2 alone

bro in term of consistency what is the best read on rssi when u used the panel?

mine without an antenna already -65 to -68. i think that is quite good already rite?

will it solve certain idle connectivity? as this is one thing that i always hate bout 3g connection..

with panel antenna?

well Panel can really make my connection very close to wired broadband like,..

my RSSI similar like yours before adding panel too

ya its good for portable use..
then it also can flash to DDWRT and OpenWRT..
i prefer for DDWRT cos user friendly and more option...

Chuah, your area have such GOOD RSSI ( signal) even a E1762 will be good enough, no need Panel or Dual Channel Modem. But mind you, Good signal = higher radiation risk, think carefully, good speed or good health is better ?

This is just a friendly reminder to all that although you dun have good speed, you will have a better health.


The Rakyat have been making noises when ever a Tower/Base Stn is built in their vicinity.

The most important thing on mobile broadband is that we must have consistent signal, no need high speed, the higher the speed the nearer is the tower/base station. You pick your choose.

My tower is abt 2~3km from my house, RSSI= +/- 90dbm , consider weak , i use various methods to enhance the Quality of my signal to keep my connection constant. A Panel Antenna is definately a good additional, same goes to having a router or 2 which is either DDWRT/OpenWRT flashed. Using USB3.0 extension cables do cut down some hardware interference between Modem and Router as experimented by our fren StevenLee. Using CAT6E cables also give it a better signal flow as proven by me but refuted by Chuah ( because his area have such good signal ( + radiation) ~ therefore a Cat5 or Cat6E cable dun matter much there as the signal ( + radiation) there is so much intense, he dun even feel the difference, maybe more headache and spurs of tantrums.

The most important thing is that Maxis must not cap your simcard cause if they cap it to 2Mbps, wat ever good RSSI/signal is useless.

Not the mather of USB3 or USB2 extension

Get a EMI shielded USB extension

You feel USB3 is better because USB3 99% is EMI shielded.

While I am using a 8MM thick EMI shielded USB extension
Can feel the difference VS my unshielded 2MM thick cable one

Sir , you are absolutely right about the CID . It is quite confirmed that the congested CID is the culprit .

My scenario :

1) with MF680 alone I will connect to either CID A or B or C ( all can get good speed but with lousy RSSI -81dBm )

2) with MF680 + panel , the combination always like to connect to CID D . When connected to this CID D , I can get better RSSI @ -61dBm but lousy speed ( at least 40% slower compare to CID A/B/C ) , highly suspect due to congestion as got college and student quarters nearby ) . By the way , I already pusing pusing the panel 360 degree , but mati-mati pun mau connect to this lousy tower cell which I do not understand why .

1) Plug your modem to the computer

2) Connect to the internet

3) Make sure CID A/B/C

4) Connect antenna

Hope it works

nope , I tried this trick , I hot-plug the panel but eventually it will hog to CID D , if I unplug then will revert to CID A/B/C , amazing is it

CID D signal too strong a

No mather how you aim what degree also CID D?

How about aiming directly to the sky

I wonder what is "3GB Data Unlimited" mean in their corporate mobile data plan.
Is is mean cap quota at 3GB or cap speed after 3GB of usage? or both quota and speed uncapped.

speed uncap...
quota limit 3gb but after than downspeed

constantly @ 5mbps
at least fix the slow turtle speed when direct connect to router

let me confirm again tonight , last night when tested with panel attached , no matter how I flipped it , test at balcony , underneath the table , still 'die-die' want to connect to CID D .

the weird thing is CID D location can be identified in my opensignalmaps ( feel like want to tumble the tower actually if I got the hercules strength ) , but I could not locate CID A/B/C in opensignalmaps .
Is there a tower only for data transmission purpose but not for calling ?
