You can't use same dns address on both primary and secondary. I use cloudflare 1.1.1. in primary and use Googles 8.8.8.8 in secondary.
Okay. I have used both servers and none of them is opening the site pexels .com very well. Can you try and see if the site loads well on your end?

If I use vpn, it loads properly.

Instead of using admin as username, use root instead. Password remains admin.

Do I just visit any Airtel office? Or the office of the installers? Cause the device is with the installers. They just haven’t activated it yet
Everything in this country, you have to add a little bit of madness, if not, they won't resolve it.

After my first registration, I had to visit their office 3 times before they finally agreed to hand me the device. I was told they had assigned my device to an installer, but there's some kind of delay blah blah blah. I told them that I would not leave that office unless they hand me the device or refund me. They had to call the installer, who then authorized them to give me the device, he said he would log into the system and checkout the device, then come to my house to install it later on that day.

To avoid issues, visit a Service centre instead of their connect stores or dealerships. The service centres are more professional and they also have daily quota they are allowed to sell, so as not to pile up devices for onward installation.

Registered and paid for my ODU. Hopefully it comes in before Friday as my current subscription will expire by then

Can you give a step by step, or a pictogram of how to change the DNS address on the ODU. Mine isn't loading some sites properly

Not loading in either of my phones or my PC where I need it.

Did you change any other parameter apart from primary and secondary DNS servers?
I am currently on 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 like you.

Every1 that are having problems with Airtel network issues, should try this settings

in your internet settings, change your network band to 7... U can also check the bands one after the other to know which one is better, after that go to the settings , you will see 4g settings.. change form 4g lock to Wcdma and press okay

Pls let me know if it works for you because I have helped lot of ppl in my area with the settings and they are enjoying it

You can check the video for a better understanding

Raised my ODU up higher from the previous position and signal strength went up from -85dbm to -66dbm (Lesser the better)

So far I have been enjoying this stuff, only had network outage about twice. One during a heavy rain, the second one for like an hour on a random day.

Is special tweaking required if one already has ODU sim or it would just plug and play?

What is the type c port meant for? Also, I thought the new ODU Version has its own power point and not powered through the iDU.
