HUAWEI B618 LTE-A router discussion thread.

Saajid said:
Anyone else have this problem: you can only set the B618's IP address in the 192.168.x.x range. You can't for example use 10.10.13.x or any of the other private (or public) address spaces. There are only 2 text boxes in the web interface for setting the IP address, relating to the last 2 numbers of an IP address. The first 2 numbers are hard-coded to 192 and 168 and cannot be changed.

This a PITA, as I need to configure this router on a specific IP address to cater a specific network need. This is going to complicate things unnecessarily.

I have the B618-22d from Afrihost on a RAIN package.

I think this will also work on your router: http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthr...x-for-new-Huawei-HiLink-devices-(E5186-B315s)

Thats cheaper than the Telkom stores, they selling them for R2799. Every online store that was selling the B618 that I contacted had the 22d version.
 
The TP-Link MR200 would be able to do the things you want, [MENTION=62980]Saajid[/MENTION]. I'm considering it myself for my Rain setup. It'll definitely do MAC reservations and the like.

Telkom does indeed stock the 65d version. Picked up one today. Much more sturdier than the B315.

It will come and go speed wise as your neighbours use it / don't use it.

Good evening

Does anyone know if Vodacom sold the Huawei B618 routers. Is it a 22d or 65d model?

Seller has no invoice as it was received with phone upgrade?

Thanks
