Configuring a Beeline router

How to set up Internet Beline (beeline) on D-link routers, TP-link

I'll make a reservation right away that the topic of routers and other network equipment is not too close to me, I do not understand it so well to do detailed reviews equipment, and all acquaintance with routers is limited to buying a pair of such devices every 3-4 years at home, for the operation of the main and backup "Internet". Therefore, I want to tell you about the new portable or "pocket", as I like to call it more, the TP-Link MR3040 router in short, so that you know about this box as I did. It can come in handy in different situations, and some do not even know about the existence of this type of device.

My story about this router will be short and rather just descriptive, so if you want details and details, I refer you to the reviews, which have more technical information and details about TP-Link operation MR3040.


Appearance and dimensions

The router looks simple and beautiful at the same time. The body is made of glossy white plastic, the shape of the device is simple. The size of the TP-Link MR3040 can be compared to a small phone or a pack of cigarettes, so it can be carried in a backpack or bag without any problems.




On the front side of the case there are four light indicators, by which you can understand in what mode the "box" is working now, whether the 3G connection and Wi-Fi are active.


At one of the ends there are Ethernet and USB connectors - the first for connecting to a computer or network, the second for installing a USB modem in a router. Here is the reset button of the device recessed into the case.


On the other end there is a microUSB for connecting a charger and an ON-OFF position switch. This completes the set of elements on the body.


Battery

The router runs on a 2000 mAh battery. Full charge the battery lasts for 5-6 hours of operation of the router in the mode of distributing 3G-Internet via Wi-Fi.


Principle of operation and settings

In terms of capabilities, we have in front of us an almost ordinary home router, however, very compact and with a number of additional opportunities... Therefore, no one bothers to put it at home and connect the Ethernet-Internet, which the box will distribute to the whole apartment.


But the main purpose of this router is to use it in conjunction with a USB modem or USB whistle, as they are also called. The device supports most of the USB modems we sell to work with the three largest operators, with complete list Supported modems are available on the TP-Link website,.

At the same time, if your modem is not in the list, this does not mean at all that the router will not work in conjunction with it, but it can be. For example, I was lucky, I checked the operation of a TP-Link pocket router paired with a Huawei E352 USB modem for MegaFon, and everything worked fine, although this USB whistle is not in the list of supported models.



The process of configuring the router is very simple - you need to connect it to the computer using the supplied cable, and then in the browser, go to the "admin panel", set the necessary settings. This can be done in manual mode or in the simplest automatic mode - where the system tells you what and how to do and write in the settings. The whole process takes about ten minutes.






Speed ​​of work with 3G-modem

I checked the router in conjunction with a MegaFon SIM card and a Huawei E352 modem - you can see the measurement results in the screenshots below. The speed, of course, is not so great, but it is enough for checking mail and accessing the Internet.

"Box" distributes Wi-Fi over a decent distance, within a two-room apartment there is a signal anywhere, and it does not disappear, I connected to the "Wi-Fi" distributed by the router from two smartphones and a laptop at the same time - everything worked stably and without problems.

Conclusion

Price TP-Link router MR3040 in Russia will be about 2,000 rubles, it should go on sale in the near future. On the one hand, the price is rather big for portable device, after all, you still need to buy a USB modem with a SIM card, this is plus a thousand or one and a half rubles, as a result, the whole bundle already pulls 3,000 - 3,500 rubles. On the other hand, for this money, you no longer just get the Internet in one device, as it will be only with a USB modem or a smartphone, but a stable Wi-Fi network with the ability to connect the most different devices via Wi-Fi or Ethernet.


Of course, ideally I would like to see exactly the same thing, but with a SIM card slot inside, so that, firstly, you do not need to spend money on a USB modem, and, secondly, so that you can not carry it with it is an inconvenient in size and fragile bundle "router + modem". TP-Link is already preparing the next device in this series, and just new model will have a slot for a SIM-card, it should be announced before the end of the year.

Artem Lutfullin ()

In Russia now, not many operators use LTE technology in their networks. Historically, Yota 4G networks were the first to appear. They were followed by Megafon, becoming a virtual operator using the same Yota network. And recently, 4G-Internet appeared at the MTS operator. A mobile WiFi router operating in LTE networks can be either "branded", that is, wired for the operator, or consisting of two devices - a modem and a separate router. The third option, called "universal router", when it comes to LTE, is not yet available to the user. So, we will solve the problem with the available means by connecting the LTE modem to the mobile Wi-Fi router at.

As a Wi-Fi router, the TL-MR3040 device from TP-LINK is considered here. By the way, not only TP-LINK produces mini-routers with support latest models modems. Here, we have the opportunity to connect a Huawei E392 4G modem (Megafon) or Yota modems... Well, for 3G devices, the compatibility list is much more impressive.

With a connected LTE modem, the router is configured via the web interface. Note that if the required provider is not in the list, you can configure everything yourself. To do this, check the "Set the Dial ..." box:

3G / 4G Settings Tab

Initially, support was made for a limited number of modems. The list includes LU150 (Yota) and E392 (Megafon) devices. The last two are LTE modems. But in general, we can conclude that the absence of "binding" to the operator does not mean complete universality.

There is quite official opportunity to add new modems supported by the router. Including LTE models, and in general - any. For this, one thing is required - to find a bin file on the Internet for desired by the user devices. Let's say there is a need to connect an E169 modem. Then, we are looking for the E169.bin file (it can be renamed, but the essence remains the same). Mobile Wi Fi router TL-MR3040 “understands” only bin-files, while other devices can use “text” format.

Prerequisites before installing the bin file

Router connection

The router is configured via a web interface, which can be opened by connecting to a Wi-Fi network.

First, it is necessary:

  1. Install battery
  2. Connect the mini-USB cable, set the router to charge
  3. Power switch - turn to "on" position

Switch position "on"

After one minute, a wireless network named "TP-Link ..." will appear. By default, it is not encrypted, so you can connect to it.

Maybe someone has already set up a mobile Wi-Fi router. Then the best solution will perform a "hard reset". After the appearance of a Wi-Fi network with a password or "wrong" name, press the reset button located on the router case (it must be held for 15 seconds).

It is important to know that wireless network card must be configured to "automatic" obtaining DNS and IP. After that, you can search for a Wi-Fi network.

We go to the graphical interface

On the computer - launch any browser and open the address: 192.168.0.1. You can go through authorization with the login "admin" (and the same password).

Status tab

Here you can immediately find out the version installed firmware... If the build number is less than 120822 (and the date is earlier than September 2012), then 4G modems will not be supported correctly. Definitely.

This mobile router 4g connection - supports 100% if the firmware version is dated 09.09.2012 (or, it is even newer). By the way, in the "English" designation in the first place number goes months.

Getting a working connection

Install the bin file

We hope that the required bin-file has been downloaded and is located on the "Desktop" of the computer from which the configuration is being performed.

In the web interface, go to the "Network" tab -> "3G"

Connection settings tab

Here, click the "Modem Settings" button. Another tab will open (you will need to click "Add New").

Add bin files tab

At the end of the whole "operation" - click "Browse", find the file, click "Upload"

You do not need to reboot the router, but immediately turn off the power with the side switch. Then, connect to the lte modem wifi router, and turn on the power again. Below is an overview of how to set up a connection.

3G / 4G connection

All the hardest part is over, as we have installed the file with the settings for the modem. Connection is established on the same tab as discussed in the previous chapter ("Network" -> "3G"). Opening the tab, in top line- we should see "Identified":

Connection setup

If the bin file is "correct", then the mobile lte modem router must "recognize". After making sure of this, turn on the "Connect Automatically" selector, and click the "Advanced Settings" button:

Setting connection parameters

Setting up a connection here comes down to setting parameters:

  1. Kit number
  2. APN address
  3. Name and password for this network

Before, of course, you need to check the "Set the Dial ..." checkbox. And finally, click “Save”.

You can enable the connection by clicking "Connect" (on the "Network" -> "3G" tab). Thus, a modem plus a mobile router turns into a 4g LTE Wi Fi router. Happy routing!

Known Issues

With some modems, the "modem + router" link works like this: there is a connection, and after 15 minutes only Wi-Fi works. It is even possible that with a computer without a router everything is as it should be. The problem is not with the router, but with the modem (surprisingly). The modem's firmware must be updated by connecting it directly to the computer.

Another "undesirable" option is when you connect a modem that is not officially supported, but is "recognized". Solution method (one of them) is to find bin file by doing as discussed here.

If a router is connected “from the outside” to a 4g LTE modem, we will get a device that is more functional than just a router with LTE. Up to 5 subscribers using the "N150" protocol - not every router can do this.

In the film - a small overview and adjustment of the "TL-MR3040":

Which was published in the spring. ( When, by the way, will TP-Link come up with good names for its products?) They have almost the same capabilities and hardware. However, the TL-MR3040 is an order of magnitude more convenient in operation than its predecessor, since it has rechargeable battery... This “unties” it from a laptop or power supply, thereby freeing up valuable connectors during the trip, and at the same time allows you to place it in a more suitable place for better signal reception mobile network or so that it simply does not get in the way. However, the manufacturer did not forget to put a 5V / 1A power supply with a USB connector, as well as a short, but flat patch cord in a box with a device.

The router also comes with a small manual, a warranty card, a software disc and a 7.4 W * h battery. It was not possible to find a similar battery in Russian stores on the move, but you can buy it or an analog from foreign traders at a price of 500 rubles or more.

The TP-Link TL-MR3040 router is rightfully called mobile - its dimensions are only 100x62x16 mm and weighs less than 100 g. It can be easily put into a jeans or jacket pocket. The body is, of course, made of plastic. The back cover and top panel are glossy, milky white, and the ends are light gray.

There are three green indicators on the front side, indicating the connection to the Network, Wi-Fi or LAN port. When data is being transmitted on the corresponding channel, they flash. Another red-green indicator signals the device is turned on, the presence of an external power supply and the battery charging process.

There is a micro-USB connector on the side wall for connecting external source nutrition, whether Charger, laptop or even tablet. There is also a power button, but the mode switch has disappeared, as well as a separate button for starting WPS.

The adjacent end shelters a USB port for connecting a modem, an Ethernet connector, and a small recessed button for resetting settings. It is curious that the USB port is "upside down" - when the modem is connected, most likely, its indicators will not be in the same plane as the router.

Removing the back cover and removing the battery reveals service stickers with serial number, hardware version, MAC address, web interface access parameters and SSID. The battery cover is quite thin but sturdy. It will not be difficult to remove it, but if it falls, it will surely fly off.

In general, it is worth praising the TP-Link designers - each new product is less and less like an incomprehensible Chinese box. And this time the router looks very nice, and the build quality is quite decent. But there is one significant drawback in all this splendor.

The fact is that the router does not have any sane indication of the battery charge level. When the battery runs out of energy, the power indicator turns red. Such notification is necessary, but after an alarm signal, the router can stretch for half an hour or a little over an hour. If everything is really bad, then the router will start flashing all the indicators synchronously. It would not hurt to add viewing at least some information about the state of the battery to the firmware or the ability to adjust the threshold for the charge level, after which the device will signal that it will soon have to look for an outlet.

As far as the firmware is concerned, there is nothing new here. TP-Link TL-MR3040 has almost the same feature set as TL-MR3020. The device supports several modes of operation. To connect to the Network, a 3G connection, wireless access via Wi-Fi or via Ethernet can be used. PPPoE / L2TP / PPTP connections with ISP are allowed. The router can act as a regular access point (LAN → WLAN), as a client or bridge with an access point (WLAN → LAN), as well as a Wi-Fi repeater. 3G connection can be selected as primary or backup, with automatic switching in case of basic WAN connection via Dynamic IP / Static IP / PPPoE.

V current firmware there is support for popular models of operator modems "Beeline", MTS and "Megafon". For them, there are ready-made settings profiles, but the connection parameters can be set independently. Some modem models, support for which has not yet been added to the standard software, will require an additional module to be loaded. Oh yes, the web interface has not been translated into Russian according to the good old tradition. However, the developers promise to release very soon new version Software with a lot of improvements and updates. Alternative firmwares are already available for enthusiasts.

The test bench configuration is as follows: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800 + / 4 GB RAM / Kingston SKC100S3120G / Gigabit Ethernet Realtek RTL8168B and Intel Core 2 Duo U9300 / 3 GB RAM / Kingston SNV425S264GB / Gigabit Ethernet Intel 82567LM. Both are running 32-bit Windows 7 Professional SP1. To connect to wireless network adapters NETGEAR WNDA4100 (WLAN1) and NETGEAR WNDA3100 (WLAN2) were used. For Wi-Fi, automatic channel selection, 802.11n mode with a channel width of 40 MHz and WPA2-AES encryption were set. For testing, we used the Ixia IxChariot 6.7 utility with the High Performance Throughput profile, the results of which are presented in the table below, as well as iperf 1.7.0.

Average speed TP-Link TL-MR3040, Mbps
Streams 1 2 4
WLAN1 → WLAN2 41 45 45
WLAN2 WLAN1 43 46 46
WLAN1 WLAN2 44 46 46
WLAN1 LAN 63 71 71
LAN WLAN1 88 94 94
WLAN1 LAN 94 96 82

Although the TP-Link TL-MR3040 router supports the 802.11n standard, you cannot achieve high speeds from it, since there is only one antenna inside. For mobile connection such indicators should be sufficient in most cases. A bench for testing the speed of VPN connections is as follows: AMD Phenom 2 X6, 8 GB RAM, Gigabit Ethernet Realtek RTL8111D running Ubuntu 11.10 with pptpd, xl2tpd and pppoe daemons. The stand was connected via a LAN port and then via Wi-Fi to a laptop. A direct connection showed a speed of about 53 Mbps, over PPPoE - about 45 Mbps, and for L2TP and PPTP - about 35 Mbps.

Checking the speed of work in the mobile network was carried out using the Huawei E173 modem of the Megafon operator and Sony smartphone Xperia go, which connected to the router via Wi-Fi. Alas, a direct 3G connection was often faster or at the same level as through a router. However, the jumps in the speed of the 3G network also made a certain contribution. A fully charged battery will last at least 5-6 hours of operation with a "whistle", in the mode of a regular Wi-Fi router - for 8-9 hours, and if you just forget to turn off the router, it will last as much as 11 hours without recharging. The complete charger will take 2.5 hours to recuperate. By the way, from the USB port in emergency you can “feed” other gadgets.


Let's summarize. TP-Link engineers have got an excellent device - lightweight, compact, long-lived, with a good set of features and a nice design. Once again, the positive impression is somewhat blurred by the firmware, which needs to be improved, which will be done very soon. Well, the price - it is acceptable, but if the company reduced the recommended price even a little, everything would be fine. If it seems to you that you shouldn't pay double the price for a battery that is far from always needed, then take a closer look at the younger TP-Link TL-MR3020. For full autonomy, of course, you have to pay extra, but on a trip it may come in handy more than once.

Almost everyone who connects to the Internet in villages does so via 3G USB modems... Both in Ukraine and in Russia. This is because there is no way to connect a regular cable Internet, and ADSL cannot be connected everywhere (besides, not everyone has a telephone line)... Therefore, you have to use wireless 3G / 4G Internet. In Ukraine, the most popular provider is most likely Intertelecom. I use it myself from time to time. MegaFon, MTS, Beeline are very popular in Russia. But today is not about that.

It doesn't matter where you live and what kind of Internet you have, sooner or later you will most likely want to install a Wi-Fi router at home. To distribute the Internet to all our devices: smartphones, tablets, laptops, etc. After all, when we use the Internet via a USB modem, the Internet can only be on one computer. And what to do with other devices, how to distribute 3G Internet from a modem to other devices via Wi-Fi networks... We will figure it out now, using the example of TP-LINK routers.

How to choose a TP-LINK router for a 3G modem?

We will need a dedicated Wi-Fi router that supports 3G / 4G USB modems. Exactly special router, in our case we are considering devices from TP-LINK. Since not every router is able to distribute the Internet from 3G modems. And even if you already have a TP-LINK router, it's not a fact that it supports modems, even if it has a USB connector.

They often ask how to connect a 3G modem to a TP-LINK router TL-WR741ND, TL-WR841ND, etc. No way, it simply does not support them. TP-LINK has several models that are suitable for working with modems from Intertelecom, MTS, MegaFon, and other operators. These are two common routers: TL-MR3420 and TL-MR3220... And two portable ones: TL-MR3020, and TL-MR3040... Perhaps there are already other models at the moment. This means that you can connect our modem to the USB connector to these routers, and we will receive the Internet via a Wi-Fi network, and via network cable for example for stationary computer... I have TP-LINK TL-MR3220, worked with Novatel U720 modem before.

Highly important point... If you have already bought a router and just realized that it does not suit you, then it is not too late to return it back to the store.

And if you are going to buy, then be sure to make sure that the router model you have chosen supports your 3G modem specifically. Yes, routers do not work with all modems. And it may turn out that the router simply does not see your USB modem.

What would check compatibility, go to the official website. For Ukraine - http://www.tp-link.ua/ru/comp-list.html, for Russia - http://www.tp-linkru.com/comp-list.html in the section "List of compatible 3G / 3.75G USB modems "click on the router model you need (which you want to buy), and save the .xlsx file to your computer. Open it and see what modems it supports.

I think everything is clear with the choice of a router. Let's now look at the process of connecting a 3G modem to TP-LINK. We will also configure the router to work with a modem and configure a Wi-Fi network. I'll show you using my TP-LINK TL-MR3220 as an example.

Connecting and configuring a 3G USB modem on a TP-LINK router

Nothing complicated. We connect power to the router and turn it on. We connect our 3G modem to the USB connector on the router (it is possible through an extension cord, if there is an antenna, then we connect it the same way).

We need to connect to the router from the computer in order to enter its settings. Can be connected via cable (as shown below), or over a Wi-Fi network.

In the control panel, first open the tab NetworkInternet Access, highlight the item 3G / 4G Only (Recommended), and press Save.

Next, open the tab Network3G / 4G... Against 3G / 4G USB Modem should be written Identified (or the name of the modem)... This means that the modem is detected and ready for use. If the router does not see the USB modem, then try updating the router firmware according to the instructions. There is a chance that everything will work after the software update.

On the menu Location choose our region (in my case, Ukraine), and in the menu Mobile ISP choose a provider (I have Intertelecom)... Farther, Connection Mode leave Connect Automatically, and Authentication Type exhibiting Auto.

Click on the button Connect... The router must connect to the Internet through our modem. The status should become Connected... If so, then everything is fine. Push the button Save to save the settings.

There is also a button there Advanced Settings, if you click on it, the settings will open, where you can manually set all the parameters necessary for connection (dialer number, username, password)... But these settings are unlikely to be useful to you.

We have almost everything set up. If the router "made friends" with the modem and connected to the Internet, then it already distributes it both via cable and Wi-Fi network. It remains only to configure the wireless network. Change the name of the wireless network itself, and put a password on Wi-Fi.

Open the tab Wireless, set a name for the Wi-Fi network, and set our region. Save the settings by clicking on Save.

Do not forget to save the settings by clicking on the button Save... I would also recommend changing the default admin password, which is used to enter the router settings. You can do this on the tab System ToolsPassword.

Then restart your router. This can be done in the same way from the control panel. Tab System ToolsReboot, and click on the Reboot button.

The router will reboot. It should already automatically connect to the Internet via a 3G modem, and distribute the Internet via Wi-Fi and a network cable. Connect to the Wi-Fi network using the password that we set during the setup process.

Now, through one USB-modem, we can connect several computers and other devices to the Internet. At the same time, the payment remains the same as before. But, if you have a tariff with metered traffic, then you need to understand that several devices will use metered traffic faster. And very often, traffic that is over the limit is not cheap.

Possible problems and solutions

Unstable work, the Internet very often disappears

Wireless 3G Internet is certainly not as stable as wired, and therefore, the modem may periodically lose connection with the base station. The Internet may disappear on those devices that are connected to the router. The computer will have "No Internet access" (limited on Windows 10).

If the Internet is gone and does not appear, then just restart the router (turn off, and turn on the power)... Everything, of course, depends on your provider, and on base station to which you are connecting. This happens with Interetelcom. Sometimes you have to reboot the router. And sometimes this does not help, you have to sit and wait until the Internet starts working.

After connecting the 3G modem to the router, it does not connect to the Internet

Very low internet speed

This is most likely due to a bad signal. In this case, we apply exactly the same advice as I gave above: raise the modem, install the antenna, and set up the whole thing with the AxesstelPst EvDO BSNL 1.67 program.

Afterword

In this article, I tried to give all the necessary information that will help you choose and install a TP-LINK router that will connect to the Internet via a 3G modem and distribute it to all your devices.

This is very actual topic, as more and more providers provide fully unlimited tariffs, and more and more people want to use the Internet via Wi-Fi on mobile devices, tablets, etc. And you can't do without a router.
