what model is that router? should be better than V2 MR3420?

Sometime long =/= power

High dBi of Omni the narrower the beam width

which model TL-MR3420 u are using ? V1 ? V1.3 ? or V2 ?

have u upgrade to latest firmware ?

u can try to download E372 modem bin file and put it on the Web Gui -> 3G -> modem setting.

it will help your router to recognize your E372

meaning ?

New Combo ( which working best )

Panel Antenna -> TS-9 convertor -> ZTZE MF680 -> TL-MR3420 V1 ( Openwrt / wifi off )-> Lan cable -> TL-MR3420 V2 ( tp link stock firmware ) -> Wireless -> laptop ( window xp )


end result stable speed 1.7~1.79MB/s with super Lowest ping ever
( normally when heavy DL running in IDM my ping is 300~500ms )

Before only single router , look at the ping
[attachmentid=3165709]

After using best combo , look at the ping
[attachmentid=3165704]

any idea where to find the bin files? none on the tp-link website.. looking for e398/k5005 bin for V2..

Plug and play don't works?

can't find K5005 bin file though, only below:

HUawei E398 bin file
TL-MR3420/TL-MR3220/TL-MR3020 Finland Not ISP Specific HUAWEI E398 Download

for K5005, u can try to use USB Sniffer tools to create bin file for it,. try and see whether it works

i tried k5005 on V1.. plug n play doesnt detect modem.. i went to find on a german website (use google translate) to download the bin file.. and it works fine.. but needs to wait 3 mins before it gets connected to the internet.. the same goes when I use V2 router.. doesnt detect.. and upload the same bin file, then it works.. still, have to wait 3 mins before it connects to the internet..

not sure about e398..

well if u want faster detect, then u can try to flash openwrt into your V1 and see whether your K5005 will auto detect and connect faster than 3 min or not,.

from what i know, openwrt definitely dial and connect faster for sure

all right thanks bro! will try later tonite if have time.. need to learn how to do openwrt first tho

some sample of my setup ( bit messy with all the cable though )

Not trully essential

Since 1043ND normally power is already powerful enough for an average house

make sure u download both openwrt bin file & stock firmware ready, just in case your openwrt dont work with your K5005, u still can flash it back to stock firmware

Since i separate the WiFi and 3G reception into 2 routers, i get better WiFi signal, not tested with the Gigabit Lan port + cat6e cable as i am short of cable now. Will do so later next morning as i am in my work place now...

But definitely much better than using only a single router...........


Can teach me how to OpenWRT my WR1043ND ?

guy,

i completely flash my modem to open wrt.
3g connection up, wifi up and lan up..
