TD-W8970 with Huawei E5331

Region : Malaysia

Model : TD-W8970

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : 0.6.0 2.8 v000c.0 Build 130828 Rel.38099n

ISP : Maxis


I would like to use the TD-W8970 with the Huawei E5331s-2 Wireless Internet Modem. My ISP is Maxis.

Under Network -> 3G Settings, the TD-W8970 identifies the USB 3G modem successfully.
However, it cannot connect through this 3G modem because the Huawei E5331 is a hostless modem - it connects by itself though its internal firmware.
Can there be an update for the TD-W8970 to recognise this and just use the USB modem without trying to initiate the dial script?

This also applies to the ZTE MF70 (also from Maxis) which is a hostless modem. If the TD-W8970 can recognise the hostless modems and just use the connection without trying to connect it would be perfect.

This is because the 3G modem options given by TD-W8970 is very limited. I also bought a TP-LINK MA180 Ver 2.0 to use, but I do not have any control over the connection. But for that I will create a separate thread.

The E5331s-2 and zte mf70 can share the internet theirselves, right? If so, there is no necessary to make it work with a 3G router. The E5331s-2 and zte mf70 are the combination of 3g modem and 3g router.
