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

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.

Awesome!! Thanks so much Guru Patrick!!!

Guru patrick..

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

Great! Hahaha...thanks for the offer..I'll check with the waifu and get back to you asap
*She is very particular about these things* huhu....

Haha, I x paham all the technical jargons.

Anyway. I purchased TP-WR941HP v1.0, managed to set it up as an access point while disabling the WiFi on the ZTE (2.4Ghz / 5Ghz).

Ran through the TP-link quick setup, and now I get better coverage, but still not max or even higher speeds hahahaha.

Called the TP-link careline, and they said the model i purchased can only act as an coverage extender/wifi access point.

The TP link careline dude said in condo's the stability of the coverage is very difficult because of so many interference. and this TP Link model cannot emit 5Ghz.....

Currently, both WLAN configuration on my ZTE is off. (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz)

2.4Ghz channel is on channel 11.
The WAN on the TP-link router is orange in colour @_@.....

Do you have any idea how to stabilise the wifi signals and coverage, despite me being able to get signal even when I'm 2 floors below my unit? xD

Huhu.. duly noted. Thanks for the confirmation

Now got another problem. Some kids meddled with my zte modem. Pressing god knows what buttons. Now... my wireless doesnt connect to any device.

LAN cable still works fine. But my devices, tv, ipad,ps4 cant connect. Help plsss. How can i set my zte modem back to normal which would allow auto connect for my devices.....

At first.. i had to change my device ip address from dhcp to static.. with new ip address... then only can connect.

After awhile. Dunno why static also cannot connect. And now with dhcp it states "authentication error".. and all devices cannot connect.

Wah sehh... damn sien lo. Wanna be angry at the kids also dunno.

Modem already resetted and reconfigured.

Various kinds of scenarios now.

1. I use a tp-link range extender on 2.4ghz. ZTE 2.4/5ghz are both turned off. (Wifi connected on phone and tv - "May not be able to acceas Internet appears" with "!" Or "No internet access")

2. I disconnect the lan cable from the tp-link router. Turn on the ZTE 2.4/5ghz. (Failed to obtain IP address appears on phone or "Error in authentication" )

3. Following no.2, I configure my phone's network ip setting from dhcp to static. Internet access enabled only on phone. But tv, laptop and ps4 cannot connect to wifi.

I have checked all zte configuration and tp link config as well.
Tplink setting - "range extender only" with smart ip setting.

All in all. One works but not all works. This randomly happened...not sure if it was becuz of something the kids did or it's at unifi or zte config..

Unifi has resetted my port 3 times. But still the same result.

Weirdly. Now the zte working. But when connected to my tplink as a range extender for 2.4ghz. All devices cannot connect.
