Best 3G/4G LTE Wi-Fi Router in Pakistan

8

The first question comes in mind, which one will be the best Wi-Fi router for internet in terms of compatibility of LTE/HSPA+/HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTS/EVDO ,support of 3G/4G USB modems , signal strength and speed.

In Pakistan there are number of brands are available, such as Tenda, Tp-Link, Netis, Linksys, NetGear, LB-Link, D-Link and many more.

But which one you should buy, Selecting one best isn’t easy choice if you want USB support for 3G /4G for your dongles, wingles. If you want to extend the range of PTCL EVO Charji wingle, which are made by Huawei and Model are  EC8372U or CharJi or other Wingle such as EC315-2. And Warid or Zong Wingle Huawei E8372h then which router will be the best, which supports all USB Modems.

  • TP-Link 3G/4G Wireless N Router TL-MR3420

There are many portable USB powered router by TP-Link for 3G/4G support and others are TP-Link 3220 and TP-Link 3420 both are almost same with few difference in specifications and TP-Link 3220 has one external antenna. TP-Link 3420 Compatible with LTE/HSPA+/HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTS/EVDO USB modems and with 2x5dBi detachable antennas.

TP-Link 3420 works with most  LTE/HSPA+/HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTS/EVDO USB modems worlwide as compared to their competitors. In Pakistan it the only tested router which worked on almost all Dongles and Wingles. The version 1 of TP-Link 3420 doesn’t support 4G LTE but ver-2 and 3 supports. It works on Huawei  EC8372U or CharJi or other Wingle such as EC315-2. And on Warid or Zong Wingle made by Huawei E8372h.

The signal strength of this router isn’t much satisfactory and Tenda w311-R with one 5dBi gives more signals a compared to 2x5dBi detachable antennas of TP-Link 3420. And if you want to change antenna of TP-Link routers. And use Chinese 15dBi or orignal 8dBi Model No.TL-ANT2408CL which costs Rs.400-500 on TP-Link 3420 or any other router which supports. In my case i didn’t notice any much gain in signal strength and checked on many location. It just increase only 1-to 3 dBi in signal nothing more than that. It’s better to use bridging with any other router to extend range or use of universal range extender or repeater is better option.

  • D-Link DWR-116 Wireless Router

D-Link also know as for the best in Wireless and networking products. The D-Link DWR-116 wireless router also have 3G/4G and EVDO support. And Supports 4G LTE/EV-DO/CDMA/HSPA+/HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTs wireless networks for international compatibility.

But as compared to TP-Link 3420 D-Link DWR-116 or 113 isn’t easily available in the market. And the price of both router are almost same. D-Link DWR 116 supports PTCL wingle or CharJi but it doesn’t support Huawei E8372h which offered by Warid and Zong. In current firmware it is not supporting but may be in near future in new firmware update it might support. The compatibility list worldwide of D-Link DWR 116 are very less in number as compared to TP-Link 3420.DWR116A1ImageLFront

  • Netis 3G/4G Router MW5230

The netis 3G/4G Router MW5230 also supports 3G/4G Network and equipped with 3 external 5dBi antennas for better coverage.

  • Compatible with 3G/4G USB Modems for network sharing
  • Supports 3G/4G, DHCP, Static IP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP
  • 1 * USB 2.0 Port, for 3G/4G USB Modem or USB Storage Device

The specification are almost same but it is not easily available in the market. And the compatibility of 3G/4G Dongles , Wingles not confirmed. It is good for conventional use but for PTCL EVO or other USB modem it need to be tested before buying.netis_MW5230_1

So, it better to buy TP-Link 3420 or 3220 for seamless 3G/4G connectivity in Pakistan. And it is compatible with world most USB modem. And Tenda 4G630 or 4G600 Plug-and-play support for over 150 of the most popular LTE-FDD/LTE-TD/HSPA+/ HSPA/EVDO USB modems with same features like TP-Link or D-Link. But its not yet available and it also not confirmed. It will work on all available USB Dongles or Wingles in Pakistan.

There are many other Portable USB routers by Tp-link or Tenda which supports all LTE-FDD/LTE-TD/HSPA+/ HSPA/EVDO USB modems.

0

EcoStar has recently launched its latest 55 inch TV – ‘VERO’ featuring 4K UHD. This new TV model CX 55UD925, presents the most powerful features at an affordable price of Rs. Rs.109,000/-only. In Pakistan, DWP Group is the official distributor of Ecostar, that ensures nationwide availability of its products, along with prompt after-sales support, through an extensive network of outlets in all major cities.

The EcoStar VERO 4K UHD resolution gives a picture with 4 times more detail than Full HD. With a large 55 inch screen size, this Smart TV gives sharper images with precise color and contrast. It is also enriched with many android features like; Facebook, You Tube & Netflix videos, call skype and many more. The customers can now enjoy the ultimate 4K experience with deep black richness and amazing clarity. The slim & thin panel of this energy-conserving TV, along with its sleek new base-stand makes it a beautiful addition to your home interior.

The several other feature-rich LED TV models produced by EcoStar include; the 65 inch LED TV, the ‘3D Smart LED TV’, the ‘Smart LED TV’ and the standard ‘LED TV’. EcoStar products have won several international awards, as many consumer surveys prove that each of these products is the best in its own category, offering a wide range of exciting features and spectacular picture quality. The prices of EcoStar LED Televisions are also very competitive, so the consumers get the greatest ‘Value-for-Money’ whenever they purchase these durable televisions.

EcoStar advises the buyers to actually measure the LED screen before purchasing any Television, whereby the consumers are assured that EcoStar never compromises on the screen-size or display-quality. EcoStar’s recent campaign highlighted the deceptive screen-sizes being sold by several generic brands of LED Televisions, as many generic brands of LED TVs do not measure up to the claimed screen-sizes.

4G/3G/2G Auto Network Switching Problem in Zong

1

It’s not only with me, but verified from many friends those are Zong customer and using their data services. And it is tested on many places of Islamabad and Rawalpindi and verified from other cities as well. From mid range smartphones to high end smartphones problem exists on all devices and on many locations.  Tested on “zonginternet” APN as well as on other “cmpaktapn”.

The auto switch between LTE or 4G/3G/2G is not working properly on Zong network. If the customer are in 4G or 3G coverage and their network mode in smartphones are set to auto than they are still on 2G network or they set to only 3G/2G mode than they still facing problem in auto switching.

When the signals of 4G/3G are good and customer’s are getting full coverage of those , there should be auto switch, in low signal area there is obvious the phone use prioritize high signal strength first and use 2G if 3G/4G signals are low. But when there are complete coverage of LTE/3G than it should switch.

When Zong launched 4G/3G , they sold wrong SIM’s to hindered of customers with “CMPAK” cell info logo with not SIM Menu in it. That SIM’s doesn’t worked on 4G network and customer’s replaced it with new one. Recently PTA ranked Zong number 1 operator for 3G/4G network but to maintain that position they must focus on quality of their network. Otherwise when after few months Mobilink will launched their LTE services after merge with Warid that will create problems for them to retain their market share.

Below are the attached screenshot’s when the 3G signals are almost full but phone still using 2G on Zong network and we took screen shot by selecting only 3G mode to check the signal strength but when we switch back to auto mode, it moved back to 2G and customers need to switch their smartphones mode to “only 3G” for using better data services.zong auto switch 2g,3g,4g zong 2g/3g/4g auto switch

Mobilink & Warid are now “Jazz”?

1

Every time when one company merges with other and announces merger agreement can create huge impact on industry. Same happened in Mobilink and Warid merger agreement. The agreement was not less than a shock to the whole industry as well competitors. After merger, Mobilink customers can use LTE of Warid and Warid customers can use 3G services offered by Mobilink. And they will be operateing under one management.jazz

When one company merges with other means they become a part of other company and both operate under one umbrella. And before both companies start joint operations, Mobilink relaunched their most famous brand Jazz. After merger the strongest brand becomes identity and the weak one is taken down or both operate separately. And in some cases the new brand name is used which replaces all previously used brand names. Relaunching of Jazz means Mobilink and Warid both use Same brand name and operate under one roof. It’s worth mentioning here, competition commission of Pakistan has approved the application of merger of both companies And now the approval is pending with other authorities.

There are no confirmed news about how both companies will operate but as per my speculation, both the companies will use Jazz as their brand name and Mobilink will take care of the management.

Another assumption can be,  that mobilink will serve its existing customers under Jazz brand and warid will keep on using the old name with an additional benefit to both brands. Jazz users can use 4G and Warid customers can avail 3G facility after the merger completes.

Another scenario could be that warid may launch another brand or promote its existing brand “Glow”.

What do you think it will be?
