I can't find ANWHERE that I can find out how much bandwidth I have remaining!

Can anyone tell me how I can get this info? I don't want to go over into out-of-bundle rates.

Thanks

Have anyone tried the Open Wrt firmware on their routers? the mr3420 can be flashed with it.

Dude, I tried flashing it last night! Kept me up till 3am because it had no Web Interface. I had to figure out how to use the terminal to send commands to restore back to original TP Link firmware. As far as I know, there isn't yet firmware with a web interface. Check out the open wrt webpage:

http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3420#installation

Under "Web Interface" it says 'None'.

Anyhow I finally got back to original firmware. Doesn't seem as if the Google DNS's are helping that much. My problem is that it takes long to load pages now and not the modem locking up.

Ver1.1 and 1.2 was a success

Did you guys tried the smallnetbuilder forum?

for ZTE USB MODEM, u need to disable the auto run first before plug into router, otherwise the router wont recognize your modem.

to disable the auto run:

plug in your zte modem in pc/laptop -> open command prompt-> type in AT+ZCDRUN=8 (Disable cd /flashdrive autorun ) -> enter -> done

then plug it into the router and u are ready to go,.


AT commands
Command Description
ATI Returns modem information
AT+COPS=? Returns the list of operators present in the network
AT+ZCDRUN=8 Disable cd (flashdrive) autorun
AT+ZCDRUN=9 Enable cd (flashdrive) autorun
AT+ZBANDI=0 Automatic band selection (default)
AT+ZBANDI=1 UMTS 850 + GSM 900/1800
AT+ZBANDI=2 UMTS 2100 + GSM 900/1800 (Europe)
AT+ZBANDI=3 UMTS 850/2100 + GSM 900/1800
AT+ZBANDI=4 UMTS 850/1900 + GSM 850/1900

AT+ZSNT=0,0,2 AUTOMATIC network selection, GSM+WCDMA,WCDMA preferred
AT+ZSNT=1,0,0 AUTOMATIC network selection, GSM only
AT+ZSNT=2,0,0 AUTOMATIC network selection, WCDMA only
AT+ZSNT? Returns network selection mode

Another thing is the ZTE MF668 and other modems support both UMTS 900 and 2100. If the carrier is available in both then it will lead to problems and slow up the dail up considerably or even slow down the router dialing process,..
