Hi folks,

I can't connect Huawei E8372H-820 Dongle as 3G/4G modem to TD-W9970 modem router.

Are they compatible?

@Sir_Robot  Good day, 

 

Huawei E8372H-820 Dongle has not been tested with TD-W9970, you could plug in the USB Modem and turn modem into 3G/4G Router Mode and see if the dongle can be detected or not. 

If it detected as unplugged, it could some compatibility issue, 

If it detected as unknown or recognize the hardware, you could try to create APN file as below guide (APN information are provided by ISP or SIM card company )

How to configure the AC VDSL/ADSL Modem Router as a 3G/4G router (new logo)?
