hi
just want to know does iburst usb modem works with TP_link Portable 3G/3.75G wireless N router(TL-MR3040)?
i have a desktop modem, it works with my other TP_link normal wifi router well, i also have two usb modem, one works with my laptop, one spare, i want to start to use the spare one , but it's usb, so i go to a computer shop and bought the portable router, i was told this is the only one that works with USB modems, and they said it works with iburst(maybe that guy doesn't know). and i did everything to set up, and i tried many way but still not connect to internet. i asked iburst technical support, they said iburst usb modem only works one model of the wifi router, which i forgot the name.
is that true???

I have a TP-Link MR3020 and it does not work with an iBurst ISB modem with the stock firmware.

i have a desktop modem, it works with my other TP_link normal wifi router well, i also have two usb modem, one works with my laptop, one spare, i want to start to use the spare one , but it's usb, so i go to a computer shop and bought the portable router, i was told this is the only one that works with USB modems, and they said it works with iburst(maybe that guy doesn't know). and i did everything to set up, and i tried many way but still not connect to internet.

You should have no problems returning the MR3040 then.

i asked iburst technical support, they said iburst usb modem only works one model of the wifi router, which i forgot the name.
is that true???

That is correct. The desktop modem will work with any router with a WAN port that can establish a PPPoE connection. The USB modem requires a router that includes the drivers for the iBurst USB modem.

This should be possible with the ROOter firmware, but will still need the iBurst USB driver to be compiled.
