So let me get this right. As long as I have this device and a 3G USB modem (and the Sim card), I can use this as my own personal WiFi free of charge anywhere I go? Even in say, my car? At a place of work? I ask because I like to use apps like Pandora and Spotify in my car for music.
so I gotta have a 3g usb thing to insert to the portable router to get Internet access? are there any routers with sim card accessibility so that I don't have to use the 3g usb thingy?
Can you use the hotspot without a USB port or the hotspot being connected to a computer? Can you simply take it with you in your pocket and it will work?
+TechTronic9000 I didn't understand the editing video & all of the sudden you placed the USB stick onto the TL-Link. $40.0 of this & $40/month for USB stick are too much trouble with object sticking out of the TL-Link. Thank your for replying back.
+angelisone Depends on your services. In my country we have 4G data plans low as 4 euro / month. A 50 Mbit connection is fast enough for a few mobile devices to share for normal usage.
Thanks for the video. One question: if the tplink if turned-on, configured as 3G/4G with dongle and battery goes down... When you plug-it again, it starts automatically the wifi with 3G connection without touch any button?
u could set it up the tplink , onto ''client mode '' take wifi from ur phone ( if ur phone have sharing option his data into wifi mini hotspot ) or any device who give wifi , and then share it to Rj45 of the tplink , u can also put a switch behind the tplink rj45, ( into client mode ) or even a cpl network , and another wifi Acces point ,behind ur cpl if u want make a new network by wifi who share more km than just ur phone wifi sharing
+Shafiq Mustafa (Soon) Yes exactly, and the broadband turns into a WAN, while the TP-Link acts like a router and gives WiFi conectivity for multiple devices.
+bani virgo It has an internal rechargeable battery. It can work on battery or connected to a charger. Here is a search form of compatible modems: www.tp-link.com/en/support/3g-comp-list/?model=TL-MR3040&location=1963
tnx for the video .. question is do I have to setup anything for connecting dongle to TP link router .. suppose I have 4 g airtel or Vodafone dongle ..it's just plug and play and there is no need of any initial setup or anything .. tnx
You need to configure it first. You must initially check if the dongle is supported by tplink, they have an updated list on their website, after that you need to configure it from the tplink settings (similar with a router).
Yes, will do, also check my video of the newer and better model, it has internal modem so you just insert the sim card, also comes with app control, easy setup, etc.
what if I turn on my phones USB Internet tethering and connect it to this device? would it work? I have wireless mobile hotspot, but it is not as fast as connecting my phone to my computer using USB tethering. It even feels as if I had home internet, but without the bill. Im just looking for a device that can turn my phone's USB tether into my own personal Wifi hotspot at full speed rather than the regular speed when I turn on my hotspot or use my phone. Thanks. Hopefully it exists lol
+gustavo Castillo It will not work, the USB port of the modem is pre programed with a set of standard drivers for a list of known and used modems like huawei, ZTE and so on.
It doesn't offer a very good WiFi range so it's not worth of using as a repeater. There are better and cheaper solutions for that like the Xiaomi WiFi repeater: www.gearbest.com/wireless-routers/pp_589239.html?wid=3&lkid=10364852
It's been a very long time since this video, I don't remember the usb dongle. But you can search for a compatible dongle list on tplink website. Also check my newer video of the new model that has internal SIM connector and modem and doesn't need the USB dongle.
i have a question does it come with its own wifi password cause im going away to school and i dont want just random people being able to connect to it... my school is in the middle of nowhere and no wifi/phone connection so i will need this
I'm going to ask what you might think is a stupid question. I'm techie illiterate, and the video wasn't complete for the reason I was watching it. Does the router get hooked to the phone? Or, because the wifi is installed with the phone, do the wifi waves travel with the phone? My employer blocked us from wifi, so one worker bought a netgear router to hook to the computer at our work station, and my phone picks up the wifi from that router. However, I don't want a router that's obvious, like the netgear is, I don't want a router that has to be hooked to the work station computer, also like the netgear is. So, does this router need to be hooked to the work station computer?
+daksmom1999 Hi there ! This router has WiFi embedded in it, so you can connect your mobile to it, without any cables. You just need a compatible 3G USB modem and a valid data card. You can also connect the router to a WAN internet connection and it will broadcast that connection over WiFi. If you still have questions ask me :)
+Sajin Kumar It depends on the provided modem. Look here at a compatibility list: www.tp-link.com/en/support/3g-comp-list/?model=TL-MR3040&location=1963
That is not a router, that is a hot spot and maybe supports 5 people at most. The antennas built into this device will not serve you well in remote areas and it will not take a 3/4g signal while charging USB. SurosWireless.com
+Michael Johnson if you are trying to promote your website using my video, then it would have been a lot better to know your facts. The above device is a full blow router, it can serve a full class of ip users. It works while chargeing and the 3G/4G is determined by your usb device (modem).
Really? Tell me, where do I plug my Playstation or Xbox into it? My TV if I need to? How are updates to firmware done? Automatic over that USB device perhaps? Where do the Wi-Fi antennas go precisely? So that little device will handle 50 users simultaneously and not go nuts or the battery drain in minutes? Will that rx/tx when charging over usb or does it need an outlet? That is a hot spot with basic routing functionality, at best.
+Michael Johnson now it's clearly that you have no idea of what you are talking about. If you are so interested in this product than I advise you to go on the producer's website, and download it's manual, i believe you can do at least that, if not then Google it. By the way the device has a dual purpose LAN/WAN port if you know what that is.
would I have to take the sim card out my phone for the data to come on or could I just turn the mobile hotspot on my phone on and connect through that?

So let me get this correct. You plug a cell phone sim card to the USB stick as the modem to get connect to the cellular signal when you switch to 3g/4g mode. In ap mode it works like a regular access a point where you plug in a loan wire from an ISP/internet connection. The wisp mode you can connect to a WiFi service provider like going to a coffee shop / airports/ hotel. Is that correct?

Yes but you need necessary a pc to conect it to the internet every time that you'll use it
so I gotta have a 3g usb thing to insert to the portable router to get Internet access? are there any routers with sim card accessibility so that I don't have to use the 3g usb thingy?
I think that there are newer ones that work directly with the SIM, but they are a lot larger. An example is: th-cam.com/video/KsvWUtgyqaA/w-d-xo.html
Can you use the hotspot without a USB port or the hotspot being connected to a computer? Can you simply take it with you in your pocket and it will work?
It will work as a wifi router, but it need an WAN connection to either it's wan wired port or to it's usb port (modem)
TechTronic9000 can you use any USB port?
The router only has one usb port and that support a selected list of devices (dongle modems).
+TechTronic9000 but do you need a sim card
Yes a data plan and sim card is required.
can this be used as an extender? from my main modem then put a ethernet cable in and another network is created from my main internet?
It has a AP (access point) function so you can plug it to a LAN and it will give you a WiFi.
Does the data slow down after a certain amount of gigabytes is used, like a phone or is it like home wifi completely unlimited and no slowing down?
Depends on your data plan
It comes with the USB stick (2:25)?
If not, what is that called with card?
I don't see the USB stick when you open the box.
+angelisone The USB stick is a modem supplied by the network operator.
+TechTronic9000 Will this works on Windows 7 & 10 without using USB stick (modem), which I do not have?
+angelisone As a normal router, it's compatible with any operating system as it uses standard WiFi and LAN.
+TechTronic9000 I didn't understand the editing video & all of the sudden you placed the USB stick onto the TL-Link.
$40.0 of this & $40/month for USB stick are too much trouble with object sticking out of the TL-Link.
Thank your for replying back.
+angelisone Depends on your services. In my country we have 4G data plans low as 4 euro / month. A 50 Mbit connection is fast enough for a few mobile devices to share for normal usage.
can that rj-45 port be used as an internet cable to Desktop?? Because that's why i wanted to buy it.
Yes, it can be used as a LAN port for you PC while the 3G / 4G will provide the WAN connection.
Do I have to connect it necessarily to the PC to make the internet connection work?
No, you don't need a PC for it to work
Thanks for the video. One question: if the tplink if turned-on, configured as 3G/4G with dongle and battery goes down... When you plug-it again, it starts automatically the wifi with 3G connection without touch any button?
It might need a restart, mine will start to freeze up when the battery is too low and also it might not start when it's charging and turned on also.
@@TechTronic9000 thanks
can it read data pack's from phone's internet connection via the USB port?
+Sam Robinson No, it can not, it does the opposite, it has internet from the USB modem and it shares it over WiFi.
u could set it up the tplink , onto ''client mode '' take wifi from ur phone ( if ur phone have sharing option his data into wifi mini hotspot ) or any device who give wifi , and then share it to Rj45 of the tplink , u can also put a switch behind the tplink rj45, ( into client mode ) or even a cpl network , and another wifi Acces point ,behind ur cpl if u want make a new network by wifi who share more km than just ur phone wifi sharing
did you just put the broadband on that wireless device?
+Shafiq Mustafa (Soon) Yes exactly, and the broadband turns into a WAN, while the TP-Link acts like a router and gives WiFi conectivity for multiple devices.
Now when your friends ask to use your hotspot they cant say “oh sorry it kills my phone”
Haha, correct !
is this device battery operated only? or it can work directly using plug adaptor without battery?
is it compatible to huawei e3531 usb modem?
+bani virgo It has an internal rechargeable battery. It can work on battery or connected to a charger. Here is a search form of compatible modems: www.tp-link.com/en/support/3g-comp-list/?model=TL-MR3040&location=1963

Yes, will do, also check my video of the newer and better model, it has internal modem so you just insert the sim card, also comes with app control, easy setup, etc.
There are any device which are works without a modem
Can I turn my data off and still use the WiFi that’s built in the router?
Yes, you can use it as a WiFi router but it will need a internet connection if you want to share it over the WiFi.

but for it to work you have to have Wi-Fi at your house right ..or does it just work like that ?
This device also provides you with WiFi as it's also a router with wireless connectivity.
so it works anywhere ?
Yes, it's a mobile hotspot, you just need a compatible 3/4G modem and an active data plan / sim card
ok thanks😇
TechTronic9000 does it support 4g sim with 4g modem????
I have tata photon! The same needs ID and password in PC to connect to the internet! So, will it work with this device?
I don't know if it will be compatible.
Can I tether my Android Phone to the USB port that is for 4G modem to work ?
No, the USB port is only dedicated for a selected 3G/4G usb modem (dongle).
but u can transform it into piratebox and then the usb will sharing the usb dongle ( hdd or usb hdd ) but u will not have 4g sharing anymore
