Guide and Manual Setup Instruction For Non-Chinese

Users

When I first purchased the Hame MPR-A1 3G Wireless Router, I was shocked to

see only Chinese manual with no single English references in it.

I visited their website and found that one even harder than the guesswork I was

doing all night trying to figure out a way to manually add my local APN settings to

it.

This tips should guide you on basic settings needed to get all your Hame 3G Wi-Fi

Modems working properly as a non-Chinese customer.

At the end of this section, you should be able to;

Change the admin dashboard language from Chinese to English Change both your admin and Wi-Fi Password

Create a unique name (SSID) for your Wi-Fi Change your APN and Mobile Network related options

Setup Firewall and other dashboard related stuff

How to Change from Chinese to English Language

Maybe Hame didnt expect their product to go as for as Africa, Europe and

America without remembering theres eBay, aliexpressand Dhgate.

Any way, thats left for them to worry about. Now to Configure your Hame 3GWireless Router to use English instead of Chinese when using the admin

dashboard. Kindly follow the steps below;

1. Turn on the Router by pressing the power-on button by the side

2. Open your favorite web browser and enter

http://192.168.169.1/goform/setSysLang?en3. Usehameor admin as the password depending on your device (mine was

hame)

4. If requesting for both username & password, combine both either ways

(hame/hame or admin/admin)

Now to change Your admin and Wi-Fi Password

Continue from the dashboard by hovering over admin select management andchange the settings under Administrator Settings to your own preferred variable.

(default is hame/hame or admin/admin)

Changing Default Wi-Fi Password

This is very much like that of the admin details ==> Just hover over Wirelessfrom the main menu and select WIFI Settings ==> Change Network Name(SSID) and Pass Phrase from there. Remember to select a security mode or leave it

at the default option.

Hi Vinod,

I understand how frustrated you are with

my not providing a satisfactory answer inmy previous reply to your challenges..

Trust me, I didnt mean to do so and that

doesnt mean Im new to tech gadgets andhow to troubleshoot them ..

Your question

Hi I am trying to access the addressas specified but the wifi is off in

settings pagefrom then im unable

to communicate with hame router.

suggested your pc isnt able to

communicate with your 3g router, that was

what actually prompted me to advice youcheck your driver and other wireless related

tips.

Concerning your new challenge; I willadvice you log ontohttp://192.168.169.1from your favorite

browser and ==> change the SSID and

security mode ==> toggling fromdynamic frequency to a specific (static)

one can also aid your troubleshooting.

One you switch to something new, save

and check if that works in positivedirection..

Normally, up to 20 devices can connect anduse your 3g router simultaneously ..

I havent personally faced this problemmyself, hence, my reason for providing

only tips and idea ..

More.1. Can you provide further details like what
http://192.168.169.1/http://192.168.169.1/http://192.168.169.1/http://192.168.169.1/

error message you normally get when

trying to add a new device?2. Have you tried using the WPA-open (

Wi-Fi Adhoc, open) without success?

vinod

My first question to you was the After

turning off the Hame router WiFi insettings page. But that doesnt addressed

the issue so i found a reset option whichresolves the issue but except other mobile

device I am able to connect hame router to

another rmobile and PC.

I will try u solution..

Hi Peeyush,resetting your modem is quite easy, all you need do is ==> locate the

tiny hole by the side or back of your 3g modem.

Gently insert a needle or pin inside to reset to factory default, let me
