ZTE MF825A not working on TL MR3020
2013-11-07 17:26:30
Region : India

Model : TL-MR3020

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : TL-MR3020_V1_130929

ISP : Airtel 4G LTE


Hi,

I recently upgraded my USB dongle from AirTel 3G to AirTel 4G LTE (Bangalore ZTE MF825A). I pocket router TL MR3020 was working fine with 3G dongle. Now I switch to 4G dongle; initially the 4G dongle was not identified. So i did a firmware upgrade. Now it's identified. But the issue is that I am still not able to connect to the internet. I did the same steps as I did with 3G dongle configuration; even did a factory reset after upgrade (one thing I noticed that restore really didn't really restore the IP to 192.168.0.254, it just did it initially and fall back to 192.168.1.1). Also I tried changing the IP manually to 192.168.2.1 as I read in tp-link forum. But nothing seems to help and still I am not able to connect to internet. I rebooted and switched off and on the device many times, but no luck. I am more or less stuck and your help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,Sudeep

I've checked the modem and found that it's not on the compatibility list.

Sept 2013 firmware also does not support ZTE MF825A. Wonder when it will be supported in the firmware ! MR3020 otherwise working with DoCoMo 3G perfectly.

I brought the MR3020 router today and unfortunately I have the Airtel 4G ZTE825A modem. Found that it does not work - facing the same problem that sudeep has described.

TP-LINK folks - do you have any plans to support the above mentioned modem? Kindly let me know.

Thanks,
Vijay

I think you can contact the local technical support personnel at first.
Maybe they can give you help.
