Model: Archer C7  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 1.0.8

Hi all, 

 

I have an Archer C7 and currently my internet is down. Do you know if there's any way to get a temporary connection going using my mobile, via tethering or hotspot or something, or if the router will take a 4g dongle? 

 

Thanks in advance 

Mark

Hello Mark, the Archer C7 does not support 3/4G router mode, it cannot work with a 4G dongle. 

 

You can enable the WDS bridging function and connect it to the mobile hotspot. Below is the instruction:

Note: We usually connect it to a common wifi network via WDS bridging function to boost wifi signal, with it replaced by mobile hotspot, we cannot guarantee that they will work and the performance. You can give it a shot at first. 

 

May it help.
