Optus Huawei E 5186 router
1 of 1 found this helpful Potentially a very good product and the 200 GB plan offered by Optus seems to be very good value.
The Optus support in Manilla Phillipines varies but overall they simply run from a script and in reality know less about the product than I do.
I did have major issues with the initial E5186 I received on 3-12-2016 ...support was almost non-existent and when I returned to Optus at Fountain Gate on 11-12-2016 I was told by a female member of staff " what do you want me do ? stand here all day and watch the thing for you .......unbelievable but unfortunately 100 % true.
I found it necessary to buy a " stand-by" E5186 on Ebay for $225 which included express freight from Sydney due to the " non-help " from Optus .....eventually I received very good and friendly help from one of the ladies at the Optus shop in Pakenham and my debacle with Optus was largely resolved .......I could thoroughly recommend Optus at Pakenham.
I have " plugged " into a few Optus Cell towers in South East outer Melbourne and also into various towers thru-out Tasmania. Connections were invariably near full scale . I could only connect to 3G and the speed was almost universally 5 Megs down and 1 Meg the other way .....quite acceptable. I believe if you can hook into a 4G tower the download speed is likely to be 12 m-bits per second ....nice I would think.
I believe that any available Port Forwarding is very limited ....regretfully I had no joy in this regards. I did not bother to call Optus Support in Manilla...as I doubt that they would have had the slightest clue about what I was talking about [ support limited to reading from a basic script ]
Also there seems no way of saving the router settings to a text file.....such a pity and if true a major drawback.
My greatest fear and despair has been with the " Mode " indicator light ......wonderful if it stays " blue " but if happens to turn " red " prepare for the horrors ....and I really mean this. In theory it means that the device has lost its connection to the Optus 3G tower ....however I suspect the device is very sensitive to the 230 volt power source that the device is connected to.
Most times you could " recover " from the " red mode " display by resetting the device to its default settings .....the drawback was the need to completely reprogram the router, given that there is no way to save your chosen settings to a text file.
In summary when this product is firing on all cylinders it is great .....when you see the Red Mode light your spirits drop almost to a level of depression [ don't expect any useful Optus Manilla support ...ie The Phillipines ] and therefore it becomes a 0 out of 10 proposition
