International roaming with TL-MR3020 is a huge pain!
Region : Germany
Model : TL-MR3020
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hello all,
when visiting Switzerland and Italy with my German SIM card I noticed that roaming is not working very good with the TL-MR3020. The reason is that the internet provider needs to be set in the config, in my case to o2 Germany.
When I travel with this SIM card to another country, I roam into other networks.
As I cannot what provider is currently active (as o2 has contracts with almost every provider outside Germany) and even if I could see it I have to adjust the settings in the config if anything changes, the satisfaction effect on this trip was not very good.
Also I noticed that sometimes (only sometimes) the setting resetted itself to o2 Germany when unplugging the device, this added some extra negative satisfaction to everything.
In my understanding the router should have an auto detection for the currently active network and auto setup for the dialin parameters and everything else. Like every smartphone on the planet. Maybe you can also add a setting where you can enable or disable data roaming to save people money if they do not have a international data option booked.
Cheers,
Roi

Hi. You may update the binfile for a try.
Here is the download link: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/3g/
And make sure that the parameters, such as APN, Dial No. etc, are set correctly on the router.
Hope this could help you. :)
