I have purchased TL-MR3040 especial for share my 3G account . I have connect it by ethernet port and made setups and it is in 3g/4g only mode. In system checks my modem indicated as " Identified" the modem is a Huawei E160E . My notebook and tablet connects by wireless connection to TL-MR3040 but the router does not dial ISP number *99# . The led on usb modem continues flashing. the 3G modem works perfectly with my notebook and tablet and I use the same parameters for TL-MR3040 with tablet. But most of the parameters don't exist on setup pages of TL-MR3040 . [code]

Just got TL-MR3040 from amazon, not very happy that it is version 1, they could at least mention it in the description, but whatever...The problem is, i can not make it work with my PC laptop(thinkpad x120e with Windows 7 64 bit). Which means,1 not possible to get into web interface to configure it, and 2 if i configure it with old powerbook (os x 10.4) to share internet from usb stick, i can connect to it's wireless network but it doesn't share internet with my pc laptop,while mac and ipad working perfect...I've try to log in into web interface through the cable, still no luck...Not sure i want to re-install the whole system on my laptop just to see if it will change anything, it works with any other router, and usb sticks...

I have just bought the MR3040. I am using this in India with local ISP Airtel and ZTE MF 880T LTE modem, which normally gives 4G connection when connected directly to the laptop.I have used the normal settings as guided by TP link and checked that dialing properties are all fine. When I am connecting through the MR3040, the blue light is visible in the modem but there is NO internet throughput, the internet icon in the router also remains OFF.

i just got a new TP Link TL-MR3040 V1.0.While setting up the router page on wireless and saw the firmware is an old version 3.12.11 build 120328 ref. 63398.Did a check on the TP link site and there is a new firmware update TL-MR3040_V1_120822.I have downloaded the new firmware but dont know how to do it. Read the confusing "how to guide ......" but was stated "Do NOT upgrade the firmware via wireless connection"
Question : how to connect with LAN wire ? Try plugging btw the computer LAN and the router LAN.... can't access the 192.168.0.1
Question : any proper step-by-step guide on how to update the firmware?

dosen't support my huawei E392 4G modem. if possible would you make bin for this. there is not other modems that you can get for 4G connections from the service provider so it would be nice if there was more compatibility than some old ancient modems. starts to feel like this is been sold as 4G router and dosen't actually support that at all.

I have a tplink mr-3040 modem to use as repeater for my travels in hotels and after 2 monts I was not able to make it to work any time.Whenever I try with WEP, WPA or OPEN - like today - it's always the same problem: I can see repeated network with strong signal, but when I want to connect using laptop or phone connection stop on level of "getting IP address" and never end with final time-out.

Basically, the 3g port is absolutely not working in both devices.I've tried with 4 usb 3g adapter (all huawei and listed under compatible), THEN i bought a MA180 (yes, the TP-LINK 3g usb stick) and even this is not working.The MR3040 if i connect the MA180 simply will blink the MR3040 3g led ONCE, after that it simply does nothing.if i go under the status page on 192.168.0.1 it basically says:"3g usb: Identifying.." and it still stops there for even an hour.Same on the MR3020.

I can connect easily to internet with TP-Link MR-3040 router and Huawei E173 3G modem, but the router is disconnected or reseted after a while with no reason. it works fine between 5 and 15 minutes, rarely more than 1 hour, and when i see a video or download a large file the reset is almost automatic. This never happens with the Huawei modem connected directly to the PC!

I purchased a TPLink MA180 dongle to go with my TPLink MR3040 mobile router in the hope that by buying both components from the same manufacturer would avoid any compatibility issues; however despite many hours of trying I've not been able to get these two devices to work together. When I attach the MA180 dongle to the router, the status says that its "connecting", but it never connects (also the light on the dongle flashes to indicate its connecting, and doesn't stay green). Each of the components works independantly, for example if I plug the MA180 dongle into my laptop it connects to the 3G network ok, and if I connect the MR3040 to an ethernet it operates as a wireless router ok - but they don't seem to work together.I've upgraded the MR3040 firmware to the latest release, and reset everything back to the default settings to no avail. When running the quick setup wizard, the router correctly discovers that my mobile ISP is 3 UK, and automatically sets the dial number and APN for this network. I've also tried it with SIM card from a different mobile ISP (Virgin Mobile) and got exactly the same problem.

There is a website that does not load when the router is in a certain setting. The website I tried to access was url...I have tried the different firmwares and settings and have narrowed it down to the AES encryption.Have tried the original 120328 firmware, works perfectly with all different settings.With the 120822 firmware, it works with all settings EXCEPT when AES is chosen as the encryption method, be it using WPA or WPA2 Personal.
I therefore pinpoint the AES encryption mode in the 120822 firmware to have a bug. I need to use 802.1n with AES, rather than TKIP.Can someone else using 120822, with AES encryption for wireless, verify that this is happening for them too?

I was configuring a device for one of our customers, but when I was setting up the MR3040's internet connection settings things went haywire.there's only a default selection for two of my country's providers. No biggy you'd think.

I received the device today from Amazon UK. The device fails to connect with my Vodafone Huawei K3770. I have tried various things including selecting PAYG and Contract, tried manual settings. Also in Modem Settings there were no modems, hence installed a version of the K3770 for TP-MR3020.
Though the device is expected to work with K3770 (as stated on various sites) there seems to be no modem bin file provided on the TP Link site.

Is there any chance to make work HUAWEI E303C with MR3040?I know this model is not in the compatibility list, but when I try connect this modem with the router, it can be identified but it cant be connected. On the logs it appears that there is a problem with dial, APN, but I'm sure I'm introducing the correct values?

Using the MR-3040 with the MA180 on Maxis network?The connection seems to come up, it will be usable for awhile and then after that Internet access is not available. Looking at the Status page on the MR-3040 it says 3G is connected. Doing a Diagnostic ping, nothing is reachable.

Recently I bought a TP-Link 3G portable battery powered router ( model no: TL-MR3040).After connecting I get this status: please see picture ( file name 1)
1.jpg: My problems are: I cant find Aircel Network provider(Chennai , India) in the Mobile ISP list, As you can see the second picture below I can see all network providers except Aircel Network Provider : Please see the picture 2 ( file name is 2)
2.jpg and frequently disconnecting and very very poor Wireless coverage (less than 10 feet) I have sent many mails to TP-Link technical support team. I didnt get a single reply from them.
I have the firmware 2.10NA. In my home we have about 4 laptops and 4 smartphones connecting to this router wirelessly and 3 of the laptops often lose connection for hours. We have tried unplugging the router and plugging it in again and factory reset and also resetting it through the IP address but the connection doesnt come back. Recently it has gone out for about 3 hours now. Also the wireless LED icon on the router constantly blinks is this normal? On the laptops where theres no connection it says limited connectivity. Is it possible that there is too many devices connected to the router or something. or could this be a problem with the laptops and not the router?
I ordered the D-link DIR-815 router online at [URL], and I'll be receiving it this Monday which is the 14th, so I am asking my questions on here now, so I could be prepared.
1.) I don't have a wireless card in my PC, so I will be connecting wired to get WiFi via WAN and LAN ports, right? First before I forget, I have a Windows 7 32-bit desktop PC. We are working with a DSL modem residential line without phone line using a coaxial cable, and Ethernet cable from modem into the PC. connecting this D-link router to my modem and WiFi, and for me to use the WPA2 security?
2.) I have an iPhone 4 with Verizon. If I want to use my iPhone to get WiFi from the router, and turn off the Internet on my phone, and use WiFi only on my phone, how would this work?
