This modem is also sold as a MegaFon M150-2 USB dongle
Install the needed packages via opkg tool
opkg update
opkg install kmod-usb-net-cdc-ether
opkg install usb-modeswitch
This worked for me. To mention that I assigned it as DHCP client and for me was eth2.
it worked exactly like this for me. Thanx
Does not work with dev build (reboot when eth1 goes up)
how to select eth device of the dongle?
Hello, I have a Huawei E3372H-510 modem on the T-Mobile network using a tablet/hotspot plan. When I plug the USB modem into my windows 10 PC directly and run speedtest.net I get 22-25 mbps and sometimes I can get 30mbps. Now if I connect the modem to the router, run the same speedtest.net (meaning same server as before) I only get 10 mbps-15mbps. Does the usb port on the AR150 router maybe not have full power for higher speeds? Maybe there is some software running on the router that is slowing down the traffic? This doesnt make sense. Btw both the router and the windows 10 pc have there TTL set to 65 so its not a network throttle issue. Some how the router is about 5-10 mbps slower then direct connection.
work fine with Huawei E8372h-155 also
I also had to change the name used when requesting dhcp. It was using "root" and was giving me errors. After I changed to "a", it worked just fine.
Works like a charme, exactly as it is described here :)
Hi,
There is the option to force the 4G conection???
Regards
Depends on the firmware of the lte dongle. There are modded firmwares available where you can select the allowed bands.
Open the interface via http://192.168.8.1/ or http://192.168.4.1/
Hi
Thanks.
I'm using the original firmware with Hilink:
| Nombre del equipo: | E3372 |
|---|---|
| IMEI: | xxxx |
| IMSI: | xxxx |
| Vers. del hardware del: | CL2E3372HM |
| Vers. del software del: | 22.328.62.00.1217 |
| Versión de UI web: | 17.100.18.05.1217 |
| Dirección MAC de LAN: | BA:AB:xx:xx |
| Dirección IP WAN: | 172.xx.xx.xx |
But with this IP I can check the configuration (and i think force the 4G mode)
Regards
Also runs as described with the Huawei E5573 LTE Router. Thanks a lot.
Still works like a charm, thank you.
Since I was struggling with the last items in the list, perhaps this will help someone in the future:
connect device
to verify that the device is connected, you should see something like this when logged in to the router:
root@OpenWrt:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 12d1:14dc HUAWEI_MOBILE HUAWEI_MOBILE
create a new network named lte
select the eth device of the dongle ( e.g eth1)
assign the network to firewall zone wan
To achieve this with OpenWrt 21.02.1 / LuCI openwrt-21.02 combination you have to: LuCi -> Network -> Interfaces -> Add new interface... From there:
and Create interface.
After that the interface "lte" is created and you can move to "Firewall Settings" tab (NB! no need to go to Network -> Firewall menu, it's a different thing) and for "Create / Assign firewall-zone", select "wan" and hit Save.
Lastly, don't forget to hit the "Save & Apply" button at the end
yes, this works with Huawei E3531, thanks
it shold be DHCP
