No, you cannot install the beta firmware for the MR400 v4 on your MR200, we will check this with the developer again if we could provide a new beta firmware.

 

BTW, what if you try to manually select the band on the beta version, then update to the latest official version on the MR200, will you still use the selected band and use Onemesh?

My ISP offers 3 bands

4G: Bands 3 and 20

3G: Band 8

 

 

How can I select to only use band 3 for 4G (Band 20 is slow)?

If I select 3+NONE, it is using 3,20

If I select 3+3, it is using 3,20

If I select 3+8, it is using 3,20

So, it is always using 3,20 regardless of the band setting.

 

MR600v1

After you choose band 3, please check and ensure you have saved the settings, then reboot the router. Login to the web GUI again to check and ensure it is also chosen the signal band 3, and then show us the status page, where display a band 3, 20.

 

Just to confirm, who is the SIM card carrier? Is it possible to test this with another SIM card?

@Kevin_Z 

OK i need to reboot the router for every band change?
Can't do that at the moment.

 

Edit: I was able to trigger the band change by selecting "3G only" and then "4G only" afterwards. Now it is correct, band 3 only.

 

Edit2: But some weird things happening.
If I select to use Band 3,NONE -> Band 3 is used

If I select to use Band 3,20 -> Band 20 is used (no band 3)


Combination of Band 3 and 20 is not possible anymore. Only single band 3 or band 20.

Weird. Try to copy the whole URL into the address bar of the browser, will you open it? We will confirm this.
