Obviouslyblunt:I already said it above. The creator of this thread is the plug. I tagged him above. New activations may not be available but the old one was what I resubscribed. |

NSEstudent:So I bought the much talked about ZLT X25pro. Inserted the ODU sim in it and it works. Nothing spectacular. It just works like other routers do currently in my location because Airtel has been relatively OK. Maybe I can test it again when things start going sideways. I'm not sure if it will make a difference but we'd see. In terms of signal, it still doesn't match ZTE G5F, that first ZTE branded ODU Airtel sold. I can't find anything that suggests it can work as a wifi repeater on either the normal UI or the root UI. I will test using it as IDU for my almighty G5F and see what happens. When I tried with the base X25, it worked but connects only one device in total. The rest won't connect. I don't have MTN Hynetflex sub to test it with, so tweaking it now might be a waste of money but I will try contacting paragon for it. I actually spent a total of 49k to get this device in the used market. Waybill made it reach that price, if not, it would have been less. |

NSEstudent:The WAN mode, which would have allowed me select wired connection to use the router as IDU, is stuck at 'Mobile Network Mode'. Maybe this will be active after tweaking? For the above, the router is not working as IDU for now. Even if it works, I would still prefer continuing with ZTE MC801A as IDU because that one has better WIFI management menu, with guest wifi to boot. Anyway, until I tweak it, that's ZLT X25 pro, ladies and gentlemen ![]()

NSEstudent:Same here o! |

NSEstudent:would you like to sell the X25pro to me?. I would do the unlocking myself. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by fuckboys: 8:45pm On Apr 26 |
pheranme9:forget it, it won’t work. Same thing happened to me, I just had to hold on to an android and iPhone device. iPhone saves WhatsApp backup on iCloud while Android saves WhatsApp backup on google drive. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Peterlove11: 9:02pm On Apr 26 |
NSEstudent:There's Mobile, Wired and several other modes. This is after the unlocking.

| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 9:15pm On Apr 26 |
Peterlove11:I see. You may try using it as repeater oh. The thing fit work. I see yours has up to 3 LAN ports, mine has only 2. I discovered that the previous owner of the router unlocked it because MTN works in it. Apparently the software used to unlock it restricted some of its features. My next move na to contact Paragon make he unlock am with his software. Meanwhile, are you seeing this in the normal UI or the root UI? |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 9:28pm On Apr 26 |
fuckboys:Give me 10 reasons why you think I go like sell the router boss ![]() |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by saint2ace(m): 10:15pm On Apr 26 |
NSEstudent:Try removing the sime from the X25pro, then connect via cable to the first lan port, it should work automatically without changing anything on the interface. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 10:21pm On Apr 26 |
saint2ace:A friend told me it works as you described. But the router seems to have been tweaked before coming to me, with software that restricted some of its features. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by saint2ace(m): 10:24pm On Apr 26 |
NSEstudent:Oh okay, sorry to hear that, hopefully the new umlock should work just fine. For those who have used paragon to unlock the x25pro, what's his price range? Seems his software has a lot more features. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 12:16am On Apr 27 |
saint2ace:10k, it has more features. Or should I say it unlocks the features which were hitherto hidden. The router now has three more auxiliary wifi. That is guest wifi. The ability to change IMEI. Then opens the network mode. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 1:59am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:Finally, although there are modes to use the X25pro as 2.4GHz or 5Ghz Wifi (repeater?!) in the paragon unlock software, that feature refused to work. I have tried it many times but it keeps showing 'Disconnect'. It now works well as IDU though, but I am still sticking with MC801A. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Betnomore: 6:57am On Apr 27 |
Does it involve any settings using it as IDU because it only has LAN out and not LAN in? NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 7:06am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:If you haven't tweaked yours, it will work automatically. If it is tweaked, however, you will activate the LAN port you want to use as WAN and then select either wired broadband or mobile/wired broadband from the network mode. Bear in mind that it is not PoE capable, so it has to be used with ODU that comes with a separate PoE like the G5F. Otherwise you'd have to buy a PoE adapter. |

I connected the X25 pro to the power bank that comes with the whole package using the same connection as the IDU for ZTE but it didn’t work automatically. Swapped both LAN ports but no internet connection. The WAN section only has mobile connection only just like the picture in your previous post. Am I getting anything wrong? Or is it because yours is slightly tweaked? It will make a whole difference for me if it works so I can use the follow come IDU as Wi-Fi extender in my room NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 7:35am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:Does that follow come one work as a wifi extender? I haven't tested it self. Meanwhile, if yours is like that, you might want to contact paragon to tweak it for you. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Betnomore: 7:42am On Apr 27 |
Or do I need to connect the LAN cable from the ODU directly to the X25 pro? Because it’s the LAN cable that is normally connected to IDU that I connected to the X25 pro. It seems the IDU can’t even work as Wi-Fi extender. It’s connection is basically just LAN input NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 7:55am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:The first process you described in your penultimate message is the correct one. The router cannot power the ODU. The problem you have is the software and it will cost you 10k to fix, by paragon. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Betnomore: 8:11am On Apr 27 |
No problem about that but I need to be 100% certain that using the paragon fix will make the x25 pro act as Wi-Fi extender. Please confirm this for me once you’ve done yours or anybody that has the paragon fix can confirm this for me before I proceed. NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 8:17am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:So all the ones I have been confirming are not enough boss? I said I tried and it didn't work. What works 100% is the IDU part with wired connection mode. Since you seem to use the same ODU I use, it should work for you. I'm done testing it and packed it. Next time I will test it will be if network starts having problems. I will then try using it as the sole router by putting the sim in it. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Betnomore: 8:34am On Apr 27 |
Bro u said you haven’t done the paragon fix or am I getting something wrong. The Peter guy with the paragon fix has his UI different from yours. That is why I’m asking. Abi I don mix everything up nii NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 9:01am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:I got paragon to tweak the router during the night. I was determined to finish the testing, which I did and then replied your old message with my finding. |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 9:02am On Apr 27 |
NSEstudent:See here |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Betnomore: 9:31am On Apr 27 |
Bro na me no see those posts well. Now I understand. Not worth unlocking for me if it can’t work as Wi-Fi extender NSEstudent: |
| Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by NSEstudent: 9:39am On Apr 27 |
Betnomore:Yea. But I think you should just do it. It looks like the tweaking kind of gives the router some super powers. The option to use it as Wi-Fi extender is there. Maybe I'm the one not getting it right. You might get it right if you're determined. I mean, even if it eventually doesn't work, you have virtually nothing to lose, apart from the 10k. ![]() Also, using it as IDU is an upgrade because the follow come IDU for the ZTE ODU is Wifi 5. |

pheranme9:it won't work. Just Link your Whatsapp to the iPhone from your android and hold on to the two phones |

Please, who is around Lugbe, Abuja? I want to confirm if I am the only person experiencing issues with Odu network. |
