@Sunshine 

 

Hi, I am still in Germany, roaming with my FL1 SIM (MR600 is at the same location as before), and I did another SpeedTest. Results are still relatively good (105/41 Mbps (see below)). However, the MR600 still shows 4G single band connection only (and not 4G+) (see below). 

 

Thus, it seems to me there are two possible options what is at fault here:

 

1. MR600 fails to show a 4G+ connection even though it is so connected (assuming 100+/40+ Mbps can only be achieved with 4G+ CA?); or

 

2. MR600 fails to connect to 4G+ / set up CA, and the current speed is indeed achieved with 4G only (no CA) as displayed - and then I am wondering what the speed would be if it were to establish a 4G+ connection with proper CA (possibly 200+/50+ Mbps?)?

 

I wd really appreciate a response with a fix, @Sunshine 

 

Thanks again

PS: Just in case, attached is screenshot of the System Log, which still shows a constant on-and-off LTE PLUS connection:

@Sunshine (and TP-Link MR600 team generally)

 

So, still roaming in Germany (same location). Created a new profile, ISP selection is set to automatic (note: roaming), manual band selection set to 1, 3, 7, 20.

 

Now I notice MR600 shows CA of 20, 1, but 4G only (not 4G+) in the Advanced Status tab. And then some 20 minutes later it shows 4G+ but B20 only. Also, speedtests show some 13 Mbps/11 Mbps only.

 

Screenshots below.

 

Can you pls revert and let me know how you are planning to deal with this. 

 

If TP does not have a solution, would it be possible / make sense to open up the HW for open source FW such as OpenWRT or DD-WRT?!

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks

Hi, I am now in Germany and took the MR600 with me. But the problem remains, 4G+ is on and off. I tried, inter alia, the following:

 

  1. Band Selection / CA set to Auto
  2. Reboot
  3. Advanced section showed CA 7+3
  4. Basic showed 4G+
  5. Speed test results: DL 109 Mbps and UL 12 Mbps 
  6. Back to Advanced section: shows 4G only with Band 7 only

 

Thus, this seems to be a HW/FW fault. Pls can you look into this and see to get this fixed ASAP. I am getting a bit frustrated now as I am already spending too much time simply on testing...

 

Also, I noted that there seems to be a lot of data streaming in the background, even though I hardly downloaded or streamed media etc. Does the router send info to TP-Link etc in the background? How can I block this?

 

Thanks again
