iPad and iPhone internet via TL-MR3220 not working anymore with 3G internet
Region : Greece
Model : TL-MR3220
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : Firmware Version: 3.13.1 Build 121123 Rel.57760n
ISP : Cosmote 3G internet
Hello,
I live in the Netherlands and we have a small vacation house on Naxos-Greece in the middel of the mountains. To receive internet we have a 3G cosmote USB stick which gives a surprisingly good internet connection :-).
So the setup is: 'internet' --> 3G Cosmote USB stick --> (USB) entrance TL-MR3220 router --> wireless connection to laptop, nokia lumia 800, iphone 5 and/or iPad.
This setup has worked great over the last 2 years. However, this year I noticed right away that the setup still works for the laptop (on which im writing now) and nokia phone, but not for the iPad and iPhone anymore.
I'm not sure how to fix this. Settings for the 3G connection:
Set the Dial Number, APN, Username and Password manually - Activated
[*]Dial number - *99#
[*]APN - internet
The connection works as proven by this post with these settings, but not for the Apple devices.
What I did notice is that the iPad and iPhone do connect to the wifi signal, but cannot reach the router on 192.168.1.1 as is possible with the laptop. I do not however have an idea if this is the problem and if so how to fix it.
Regards.
Update: sometimes for brief periods internet works on the ipad or iphone, but only for a short while after connection is broken again (wifi connection remains, however IP of router cannot be reached).
