Speaking of openwrt, I'm trying to setup my 1043nd (router 2) it as repeater but I can't get internet (offline) even after successfully connected to router 1
I followed this guide, anything I might be missing?

sure2

or you want me to just post it here?

i'm sure you'll fully utilize it at your place when you get it from your friend..

Yes, hopefully will maximize. I can get more than 30Mbps with just two bars of LTE on my MiFi.

Sorry bro no idea bout this it has been a very long time since I have setup a repeater.. all forgotten already

Have u test the different between the sim on your phone speed test and the E5186s modem speed test?
Will the modem bring more signal and speedy than your phone ?
I am trying to get this similar modem but my area didnt have LTE-A coverage but nearby, i was thinking that will the antenna from modem will able to receive the LTE-A signal.
either B310 or E5186s for me

Im getting 5mbps. Last week digi said got interuption should be ok by 26/4.

Now still same shit speed. Will complain to mcmc.

If your area & device support lte-a it shouldnt be a problem to get high speed data. Antenna doesnt help u to get lte-a if your area doesnt have lte-a coverage

dota 2, ffxiv, guildswar 2, path of exile, overwatch
all these games i tested with my s6 tether to my laptop
no lag, no ping issue, no packet lose, dota 2 constant ping at 3-6x ms
overwatch constant ping 6x ms
ffxiv 13x ms

as many has mentioned a modem will usually have better reception than a phone. how far are you from LTE-A coverage in DiGi's coverage map, select the outdoor version. i'd suggest you to try this: use your phone, go outside your house and test the signal and speed. if you can get good speed compare to indoor, you can place a modem near a window or at a balcony.

Yagi or directional antenna does help if you know the direction of a good cell tower nearby.

sis you can flash GoldenOrb 2017-04-15 from here http://www.ofmodemsandmen.com/downloadsp.html,

flash it to your tplink mr3420 v1. and force 4G only from inside the rooter.

am using it with my old S3 LTE Cat 3 100Mbps usb tethering to my both tplink mr3420 V2 & MR3040 too..

this goldenOrb work amazing. and also can charge your usb device in the same time too

OT:

sifu chuahcs79 in rooter where is the settings to lock 4G only? Does this applied to modem only or can be done with smartphone also?

i think lock to 4G only is applied to modem.. smartphone wise u need to either root and install force 4G app/band like network signal guru, or use short code to enter band selection in certain phone,..

under the goldenOrb 192.168.1.1 -> modem -> Miscellaneous -> Cellular Mode

this is the speed i get with my old S3 LTE i9305 Cat3 LTE device

great price bro,...

think it will work wonder in your area for sure,..

Thanks sifu! I have the same setup with my phone... so this confirm that network band lock is only on modem..

phone wise u need to root it and use network signal guru or use shortcode for certain brand phone to enter 4G only,. or custom rom major of it does come with it..

My area got no LTE-A coverage and i was just wondering will antenna help me get the LTE-A hahaha. LTE-A area is 0.4 km from me

i'm sharing the link I bought my E5186 for the benefit of whoever that is interested in it:
https://world.taobao.com/item/534712629865...._u=r26e8sdfc377

I choose the one without the back cover since i'll be using antennas anyway
