  1. I saw this post on other page. It had identical meaning but in a completely different words, they use advanced article rewrite, you should read about it I guess. Nice original post.

  2. Hi,
    I am trying to connect my ZTE CDMA modem to a TP LINK WIRELESS Router. Do you know, or are you able to get the Authentication settings like Dial number, APN, username and password? Thanks.

    1. Thanks for the comment. Try the following procedures..

      Click on quick setup by going to Start, Internet Access, WAN/3G, Wireless and Finish

      The router provides up to 4 Internet
      access modes which you can choose from ie 3G Preferred – Use 3G as the primary access, WAN as a backup.
      3G Only – Only use 3G as the access to
      the Internet. WAN Preferred – Use WAN as the primary access, 3G as a backup.
      WAN Only – Only use WAN as the access to the Internet. Select either 3G only, or 3G preferred and then click NEXT.

      Select Authentication type AUTO and enter configuration manually ie
      Access Number: *99#
      Access Point Name (APN): call your ISP to get it
      Username: call your isp to get it or leave blank
      Password: call your isp but always its blank and hit NEXT.

      Enable wireless radio, enter a name
      for your wireless network. Leave
      channel as AUTO, Mode as 11bgn mixed,
      channel width as auto. Under wireless
      security, select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.
      Enter a password for your wireless
      (PSK password).

      Click NEXT and hit click FINISH. Your router will reboot and you will be done and you will now be able to connect to your new network with the password you created.

      If you need to edit the settings or change to another network, login to the router management console, click on
      NETWORK, click on 3G, and manually
      enter the settings (APN and access
      number).

      Post back to let me know if it worked for you. Make sure to call your ISP to get details like APN, username and password.
