Hi All,

I tried using TP-LINK TL-MR3040 with EC1260 (Reliance Netcnnct, brand HUAWEI) and AC8700 (BSNL EVDO, brand ZTE) USB modems however none of them are working with it. I also upgraded the Firmware to latest version i.e.
3.17.1 from 3.14.4 Build 121017 Rel.62268n but without much success. :(:confused:

Does anybody has bin file for the USB modems EC1260 (Reliance Netcnnct, brand HUAWEI) and AC8700 (BSNL EVDO, brand ZTE)?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
