I am having same issue with TL-MR3020 and BSNL EVDO AC8700M USB modem. From the router log, the response to a modem command is termed as 'invalid'. I have already sent the log to TP-link support for further analysis.

Region: India
router model: TL-MR3020 v1
firmware: TL-MR3020_V1_130326
ISP: BSNL
Modem: ZTE AC8700M, EVDO

The modem works fine when plugged onto PC and dialed manually. I have a TL-MR3220 v1 3G router at home which works well with this USB modem. A friend of mine is also using this modem successfully with his TL-MR3420 (although initially it did not work, TP-link support personnel sent him a beta firmware with which the problem was rectified).

I am now waiting the tp-link personnel to respond to the issue I had reported against this model. Hopefully like last time they will send a beta firmware and problem would be solved.


Hi

Please can you mail me that firmware which you have got from TP-Link, it will help a lot to me ravishankar.mail@gmail.com

Region: India
Router model: TL-MR3020
Firmware:
ISP: BSNL
Modem: ZTE AC8700, EVDO

The modem works fine when plugged onto PC and dialed manually.
But when I have tried with TL-MR3020 after plugin ZTE AC8700M and providing proper settings,
it keeps on showing the message "connecting" but doesn't connects although my data card is shown as identified by the device MR-3020.

Can anyone help me in configuring my datacard with MR3020 ???

I see no moderator for TP-Link India forums and no replies from Tech Support giving out help and customers / users are fending for themselves - any geek who can help us here with BSNL evdo AC8700 connection problem, only @anoopthomas got some help but he does not mention the firmware file version, so this is of no help. Basking in thin air. Any one out there?

TP-Link TL-MR3020 problem Solved for compatibility with BSNL EVDO ZTE AC8700 Data card / Modem

Hi,
I just solved my problem for compatibility issue with BSNL EVDO.
I just call customer care and they give me firmware. With this firmware my evdo card works with TP-Link TL-MR3020. Download link is below.

Download Firmware from here :
https://drive.google.com/.../0B8oRLHEBGgH9Wm5uWUV.../edit...

In connection setup select "3G Only" in first dialog box.

Add this setting in connection.
User Name : (your username)
Password : (your password)
APN : LEAVE IT BLANK
Dialup Number : #777

Enjoy!
