This Airtel odu powerbank doesn't last at all...can't even give me 2hrs after nepa took light. Is that what y'all are experiencing too?

okay

I really doubt it will go except they have a poorly designed system. It should flag an error if attempt to do so since a SIM is already active on that imei number.

But again, if they can wrongly swap another number successfully with ease, I guess anything is possible with them. Will you be trying it so that we can know if it is possible or not??
Lol

I'm not going to try.

At least not for now. grin

I think one of the reasons why the ODU consumes a lot of battery is due to the temperature control feature present.

I believe if you turn that off you should be able to get more hours out of your back up.

It's not recommended to turn it off, but if you must, then go to system, developer options, put in password and then toggle temperature control.

You run the risk of damaging your motherboard with this setting

Airtel ZLT M30 PRO
I tweaked the IMEI though to make it work with the 20MPS when I was still on the plan

OK. I use the normal M30 and it works as well.

I wish I can find a portable router with up to 5000mAh that can be made to work with broadband bundles.
I found one VIDA router with 5000 battery but the tweakers say e no fit work.

Go through My Airtel app. I don't see why you need to receive SMS on the ODU line.

Folks should actually take advantage of that app and especially SmatCash. 10% discount is a big deal in long term.

I did my best to buy with the Airtel smartcash but it didn't work. There's no option for 25k for 50mpbs

Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by pheranme9(op): 9:27am On Dec 09, 2025
you can only get it if the sim was registered using ODU Router imei

Register for the my airtel with your regular Airtel line if you have and then opt to subscribe another line. This is what I do
