Yes I did set it to connect from my router.

Still unable to connect.

Reset my router. Still not working. Ouch.

The setting that I have shared is for bridge mode. ZTE <bridge> own router <LAN/WLAN> PCs / phones. Recommended setup if you have powerful wifi router.

From the screenshot, are you using DD-WRT for AP mode purpose? If yes then then you need to undo all the changes in ZTE


1. The TM ZTE default IP is 192.168.1.1

In DD-WRT >>

2. DD-WRT router local IP need to configure as 192.168.0.1 / sub-mask 255.255.255.0 (different sub-net to ZTE)

3. Gateway 0.0.0.0

4. Local DNS 0.0.0.0

5. DHCP IP pool must be in 192.168.0.X range e.g.
Start IP address 192.168.0.100
Max user 50
Static DNS1 8.8.8.8

6. How's the PPoE setup at the top?

I Whatsapp-ed you

A big thank you to patricktoh for his time and patient for helping me to set up my router.

For some reason I can't use my e4200 in router mode already. Now only can use it in AP mode.

The version of the dd-wrt is in 2012, will find a time to flash it with latest firmware and see still can connect or not.

You're most welcome.

Hi all,

need help.

I have this ZTE (ZXHN-H267A). How do i use it with my DIR-850L router? i try connecting it to LAN1 and try setup on the DIR850L as DHCP but it failed to detect.

Can advice sifus?

Problem solved with Patrick Toh steps... TQTQ

Hi there,

I got the above modem/router 2 in 1 as well. I am thinking if I should be getting a separate Asus 86 router? Not sure if this router is any good.

I do have an issue with wifi. Phone, TV, etc no problem. But my laptop seems to be rejecting this connection via Wifi. The connection will after a few seconds show the ! mark meaning no internet. Not sure where the settings go wrong. If I use fixed RJ45 to the router, no problem.

Any gurus can help?

Thanks.

Glad to hear it works for you too...

Could be your laptop settings. I would change the router to the Asus RT-AC86U anyway if you have the budget, as it is definitely much better than this router.

1. Which band you're connecting to, 2.4 or 5ghz? Suggest you turn off the unused band to see if it is better

2. What's the SSID name? Try to give different name for 2.4 and 5 band

3. Any changes you made to ZTE after TM contractor completed the installation?

Hi Gurus,

Just got my ZTE H267A Modem a few weeks ago after signing up for 30Mbps....is there a way to boost it's wifi signal strength?

Just moved in to a new apartment, but the reception in some areas receive less than 3Mbps.

I've heard that having a 2+1 modem/router is not good.

But should I call TM and ask for a replacement? (switch back to having 1 modem + 1 router). Since no TV at home yet....Hypptv has not been installed....

Any help is appreciated

Hi there,

1. Both band have the same problem.

2. SSID is the same as the previous one I have. Both band have diff name. Key is, it works for phone and tv. So most likely some cockup in my laptop...

3. Nope. I changed nothing.

Anyway it doesn't matter, maybe my windows 7 somehow corrupted. I am now using LAN connect with direct RJ45 to the router. It works fine now.

However one question, now I can't access sensitive websites blocked by our malaysia govt censorship... despite in the router I configure google dns and also in the laptop setting.

Now censorship goes beyond google dns?

This ZTE 2 in 1 has no external antenna so don't expect great signal but generally it is a all rounded modem router. Suggest you invest in a mid range AP/router to boost the wifi signals. Or get a powerline extender with wifi repeater to cover the blind spots.

Btw don't think TM will entertain your request for split units.

Using Google DNS doesn't exempt you from monitored by local gov. You need to have VPN connection.

Thanks a bunch! Appreciate it!

Yeah was thinking about that for TM....you saved me the headache xD.

I don't understand why TM would give u a 2-in-1 product with such weak wifi coverage.

So with this ZTE model, I can hook it up with a router and isolate the WiFi signal to emit from the router only?

Tried looking around for guides on how to utilise this, but very little information out there.

Yes, you can switch off the ZTE in-built wifi channels. Use the wifi from own router only. I am on this configuration. Only turn on ZTE wifi via the physical button on top when need to check/change ZTE settings.

Awesome!! Thanks so much Guru Patrick!!!

Guru patrick..

Just one quick question... is this router compatible with the zte modem?

Hi Benny,
Yup it is compatible with unifi. This router is only good for long distance, wider wifi coverage. The rest of feature so-so only. Skip this router if you're on unifi 100Mbps package. The 100Mbps WAN port is the bandwidth bottleneck.

If your budget is below RM200 and dual-band not a must then I would recommend you go for TL-WR1043N instead. Main advantage is gigabits WAN & LAN ports. 3 x 5dBi antennas.

I have old WR1043N to let go. https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4480688&hl=
