Also with ur experience can u tell me an economical combination of usb device and wifi router just as u showed in ur tenda device blog and can u guide me that which service has the best ratio of coverage,speed and less charges ?? BTW u r doing an excellent job by guiding novices like me

Asim Zeeshan on August 18, 2012 at 4:13 am said:

Shakaib, Wifi routers (like the one I reviewed above) will let you connect any mobile which has wifi feature in it. Secondly, there are now a number of Wifi/3G portable routers in the market that are affordable and you can use them easily BUT if you are talking about affordable EVDO packages? well consult PTCL about it, there are a number of packages. Coverage/Speed varies from area to area. In my area I get 3/4

signals and still be able to reach 3.1mpbs speed but in some areas the signals are poor. Again, you have to check how good the coverage is in your area by directly asking the OneStopShop in your area or borrowing one of your friends/co-workers EVDO to test. Personally I just keep EVDO as backup even though it performs extremely well, I use PTCL landline as my primary connection. Thanks for appreciating my efforts and this blog

Does not look right, can you type in anything and bypass this screen and still be able to connect to EVO via the wireless router? It should work

usman on October 23, 2012 at 1:48 pm said:

this TP-LINK TL-MR3420 configures only to the place where 3g signals are received and where the evo 3g connects in Hybrid or CDMA signals it does not support. and this signal fluctuation is normal so i can say that this model is useless in pakistan for ptcl evo.

So, All I can say is follow the instructions as outlined above and the settings will be the same in whatever control panel/device you are using

Do both devices work fine on Laptop? if thats so, It may be some issue with the router and you can check with vendor for any ROM updates etc. If the issue is the same on laptop, your EVDO device is not working properly and may need to go to claim warranty (if applicable)

Asim Zeeshan on January 15, 2013 at 11:27 pm said:

Aine, PTCL has contracts with different vendors to import EVDO devices. I also have one black and one white and it does not make any different performance wise. Yes there are some device specific benefits / drawbacks like the Huawei black device they used to sell in the start gives better signals then the ZTE devices (personal experience and test)

I am trying to set up a wireless connection using the PTCL EVO and the DWR-113 router. As instructed, I connect the router with the laptop, and plug in the USB in the router. When I open a browser and try to access the address http://192.168.0.1, to configure the router, the website does not open! Can you tell me how to proceed? Is the router faulty, or am I doing something wrong?

Depends on router to router, maybe your routers control panel is available at http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.15.1 or whatever. Consult the manual

May be you are out of coverage area and you have no EVDO signals?
