Buy a powerline to link the 2 together.

You can always flash to OpenWRT and configure it as a repeater. Google for steps biggrin.gif

rooter vs openwrt, which is more stable?
after flash mr3420, can use wifi bridge? i've read online, people said wds doesn't work because of different brand. if i flash, confirm can work?

USE MDMA/your modem E398 dialer software , plugin your modem into computer and use the Band config in MDMA/ network selection in E398 dialer software to config your E398 to 3G only, 900/2100MHz band

I've flash it to huntsman. Then follow the guide Routed Client or Internet Only Mode:
http://www.ofmodemsandmen.com/wdsmode.html#routed
Still cannot online cry.gif (i'm using wired connection)

What did I do wrong? icon_question.gif I followed step by step.

I followed the guide here:
http://www.ediy.com.my/index.php/blog/item...using-tl-mr3020
It's similar except the client router ip is different. Now it works. rclxm9.gif

Main router (Riger) ip 192.168.1.1
Client router (tplink) ip 192.168.0.1

Hi all.
Just to share my happiness.
After more than 1 year trying, I manage to use TP-Link MR3420 v2 as my UniFi router. rclxms.gif

The step by step was similar with this blog. Credit to the author:
http://myjowenunifi.blogspot.com/

And below is the final config:

Switch:
port WAN is equal to port CPU in the web interface
port 1 is equal to port 2 in the web interface
port 2 is equal to port 3 in the web interface
port 3 is equal to port 4 in the web interface
port 4 is equal to port 1 in the web interface (for HyppTV)

Just bought this model yesterday to use with U-Mobile, however I find that the WiFi's signal strength is not too convincing even when placing it at the middle of the house upstairs (a 2-storey house).

What are the possible solutions? Flash another firmware to increase TX power or get a repeater?

i'm currently using the 3G/3.75G v1.2 MR3420

thought of buying an LTE USB and try it out on the router
http://www.dlink.com/uk/en/support/product...lte-usb-adapter

i've been searching but unfortunately unable to find much info on the compatibility of my router with newer LTE devices

worst case i'll just get a new portawifi or similar device...

thanks for replying! i can't find these 2 brands on LYN's pricelist... if they costs around 350-400, i'll consider getting Celcom's portawifi instead
