So, Signed up to 2degrees mobile broadband, great speeds and what not but the downside is, 

 

 

 

we were give a B535-232 Huawei router.

 

 

 

This thing is simply put, just a total pile of crap. Doesn't support bridge mode I find out first, and now I cannot for the life of me get a simple port forward working.

 

 

 

Why would any ISP sell this crap to their clients? Im actually so confused right now.

First off - Language...

Second - you're not even provided a public IP so those features are pointless. You could add what you're trying to achieve?

Also noteworthy this isn't your first thread with mobile broadband issues (https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=85&topicid=289608) so is this the right product for you? Is there a local WISP covering your area? You really need to provide more information instead of starting these posts basically saying a product or service is rubbish without backing up your claims.

 

Lastly, that router is not rubbish. It does its job well which is to provide you basic internet.
