my MR3420 V2 frequently DC..already upgrade to latest firmware..is it my E367 problem? try to flash to openwrt and sucssesful..but have no idea how to connect to 3G.. does it auto connect or we need to manually setting the openwrt?

thanks mr. chuah for the reply..
on my V2, i need to select "connect manually" or "connect on demand" in order to be able to set the idle timeout..if i select connect automatically, this idle timeout function cannot be key in..

and my MR3420 seem difficult to identify my E367..sometimes it identify successfully, sometimes it will keep to identifying... and sometimes it show "unknown modem model..."

Thanks mr. Chuah, i flashed to openwrt and now my modem uptime is10hours ++..and my connection also stable until now..very nice..i ama happy with my both modem..what if i change to e398? Any improvement?

And guys, how to set dns in openwrt? First i key in 8.8.8.8, then i click the small icon with the plus sign..nothing happen..just the green plus sign become red cross sign..
