Most people got that one omo today Airtel called me asking for survey on their ODU from Installer to performance i told them it only sucks during the night
Very good. Let them be getting that review until they do something about it. I never fail to mention that terrible night experience any time I call them, whether for myself or for someone else.

Do you mean most people got one month extension for that one day issue?

You have to get your hands dirty and set up filtering. You should blacklist those ones or better still, use whitelist and list only the ones you want to continue using your Wi-Fi.

This is easy with my ZTE MC801A, which is IDU for my G5F. No one else connects to my home wifi - 2.4Ghz and 5GHz. I set up guest Wi-Fi which allows exactly only one device at any given time.

Gd evening guys. I have the ZLT W304VA PRO ODU. Installation was done over 5 days ago but it is not browsing till now. I am fed up with calling them. I have a Smart box 5G with Simcard in it but very bad network on the Smart box, Can I remove the sim from the Smart box and use it in the Odu?. My ODU is E-Sim. Can I switch it to External sim and use my smartbox sim card? Would it work? Kindly advice. Thanks inadvance
If the problem hasn't been solved, you may try this, cos I had similar problem when my new Zlt was installed untill I changed the network mode to 4G only.

Guys , pls I need help.

I have been having network issues with the ODU for days now, my router doesn't connect to internet and if it does, it will show 3g if at auto connection mode and no network at all if on 4G/5G.

At times, if connected to 4G/5G, the upload would be very low.

Today, I changed direction of the ZLT ODU, problem persists then I disabled 5G band lock and select only band 7, 3 and 8 for 4G, while my network mode is set to only 4G only.

With this, the download speed is great, I often get the maximum speed 50mbps but the upload speed is terrible, always in kbs.

I urgently need help on how to improve the upload speed as I need it more for my works.

Update:

I tried all the methods recommended but the best of all that has given me great result consistently since Saturday is that I chose 5g/NSA/4g as network mode then switch off 5G band lock, chose band 7,8 and 3 ,1 and 41 only.

Also I locked 4G cell 3500/172 and 5G Earcn 627264/221.

My download and uploads have remain largely same over time. See attached.

Thanks guys for the assistance.

I'm glad you were able to figure it out.

Since you did band/cell locking, let me just point out that once in a while, you might have issues with the 4G band/cell especially. If that is the case, just restart and if it doesn't work, just remove the band/cell lock and allow the device to connect to any available band/cell until the issue is resolved and then you can return the lock.

It's not something that happens frequently but just to let you know.

Cheers!

There's no way the ZLT will not have MAC filtering. I don't know if it has the the Guest WiFi feature though.

Of course it has filtering. That's the first option I gave him. It's less straightforward than the other method.

Download this app from play store and login.

When you are logged in select access device.

Next select any device that you want to block.

In my case redmi note 10 pro and then toggle the switch off. The person may still be connected to the wifi but internet not available for the person.

The app is tkonnect by tozed

Most ZLT routers have Mac Filter
You're not getting it. I gave him two methods. One is the filtering (it includes IP and MAC filtering) which I elaborated. I also told him to use whitelisting instead of blacklisting so that he's in control of 'allowed' devices at any point in time without the need to always find and block new ones.

The second one I didn't elaborate because that one is what I use in my ZTE MC801A. That one is to create a Guest WiFi and decide how many people can connect to it. Different SSID, password and other rules from the main SSID. In my case I disabled guest wifi users from accessing the router IP, just in case.

So I think ZLT M30 has feature to create numerous SSIDs. Someone suggested Nokia ODU has it as well. The current ZLT ODUs don't have it. What they have, including the acclaimed ZLT X25s, is filtering.

This is good. Tozed is the maker of ZLT devices.

The Huawei has this too and you can even limit speed for each device connected.

You're using wired access for your Note 10?

Is impossible to change your password?

Why not just change the password and push everyone out.
