Look at it this way, Your OpenWRT router+modem dial into maxis on a shared power of 1A, which I believe is "under power". I believe you should use the 2 Router way. .

Mine is a little bit different , the MF680+MR3420 combined as a "oversized modem" that is powered by a 1A adaptor dial into Maxis and supply the Internet signal into a DDWRT Dlink via a Cat6e LAN Cable. The "oversized modem is AC powered by a 1A adaptor ( converter that convert 240V of Alternate Current (AC) into 12V , 1A of Direct Current(DC).

The Dlink utilise it full power (2.5A) to process the Internet signal supported by the DDWRT Enhanced Firmware and release it via WiFi to my laptop. Hence i get a more stable and uniform WiFi signal.........and DDWRT have more options for you to tweak,play and modify although i dun exactly knoe what those extra functions are for

unless u have try DDwrt with 3G, otherwise that will prove nothing much,

V2 alone can handle dialing + wifi N and still stable too ( which i tested before )

Added on November 23, 2012, 6:50 pmThis is Result of TL-MR3420 V2 alone

Connected to V2 Via Lan cable


Connected to V2 Via Wireless N 300Mbps




as u can see V2 alone can handle dialing usb modem + Wireless N both task together even without V1 act as wireless router too

I already explained very clearly using MR3420+MF680 as a 3G source, you still can't read me?

I guess i have to find this to plug it into my DDWRT's flashed Router's WAN port to see if it supports it.

LAN male to USB female adaptor

Modem on one end and WAN plug on the other, you never knoe DDWRT dun support tilll you tried.......

Your router is running DD-WRT r14896 which is extremely old

It is very easy to upgrade actually, just upload something like a usual firmware upgrade

Is it as simple as Upgrade it like TP Link stock FW?



btw, i wan to poison Chuah with this Super Channel

since u are trying to compare DDwrt to Openwrt /stock firmware on lan/wifi,

until your try your DDwrt with 3G, otherwise it prove nothing

i try openwrt with 3G in 1 router and 2 router combination before,

doesnt make big different,

V1 alone also able to handle dialing 3G + wireless G stable too

your DDwrt only act as wireless router, if u want wireless router, better get sapido,.. 1000mW (30dBm) High Power Boosts WiFi Signal 10 Times Stronger, way better signal even

Added on November 23, 2012, 7:25 pmno, your move is , u wont be able to poison me unless u able to produce DDwrt dialing 3g and able to hit higher speed more than 10Mbps in your area

otherwise u are wasting your time

ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSlay...c1-firmware.bin

Download and flash it through firmware upgrade

As usual blacktubi stuff, try at your own risk

Yours is DIR-615 C1 right

Digilife didnt flash the router himself, he buy ready flashed,..

not like us adventures trying an experiment all ourself,.

Oops
That's why I mentioned try at own risk. No warranty

Thanks BT, its easy like you mentioned, i dare not flash from Custom > DDWRT cause scare headache as i am not good at these kind of stuff but as you mentioned, yeah its easy to upgrade the FW myself





@Chuah, i dun need to convince you but i wan to make you lololuen , as i knoe your are like this now

:

sorry, no time to lololuen on your so called DDwrt,

unless you can use your so called gigabit lan port + DDwrt dial 3G to get 10~13Mbps in your area with your 42000/8640QoS in peak hour la,..

otherwise you are wasting your time

i dont play online game, so 40~60ms ping is totally fine for me,.

as i only wanted to stable down the 13~16Mbps speed with capability to hold on the good IP longer hour than usual

my combination working amazing in : Online Time 2 day(s) 17:29:26

and result is

if u did your homework,

DDwrt suitable for fibre/ADSL2+/wireless router effect = superb

DDwrt not suitable for 3G connection

hey bro,

finally i got myself home plug with wireless now.

should i disable the router wifi?

if so, how can i disable it via webui?

No need disable, keep both of them so your WiFi signal better

which version u are using ?

V1 ? V1.3 ? or V2 ?

V2~~

whats the purpose to disable first router wifi?

if u want to disable the wireless

-> 192.168.0.1
-> sign in
-> wireless
-> untick the enable wireless router radio
-> click save

well from my 3 years E&E experience, no such thing... i mean theoretical ~~~

thanks bro, now i know radio mean wifi signal~~~

]
well i off my wifi because there is someone in my same block try to hack my wifi before,.

my chinese anti virus alert me and i kick banned his mac id,

from that day onwards i off my wifi, only use lan cable,.

well i agree that router is built for 3G and wifi both, some user here believe that off wifi can give more power to 3G function

maybe he aware that you got god like internet connection ~~~

anyway i turn my router wifi on again, home plug wifi signal not strong enough for whole house....(which is totally expectable...)

though u getting those home plug powerline lan cable version ?
