USB 4G Dongle for RT-AC86U

[juanantonio]

Hello everyone.

I would want to know if any of you have a USB 4g Dongle on router Asus RT-AC86U.

I have a house in my town with no fiber connection and I am connecting the router to the Internet via Android tethering, but I want to be free to take my phone when I left the house without having to reconnect when I come back.

I have read some posts in this forum and it seems that Asus' list of compatible devices is not up-to-date. For this reason, I would know if any of you have had luck connecting a specific USB 4G dongle to the router. If so, I would go directly to buy it.

I have read also some post that pointed me in the direction of Huawei E3276. Any of you have tried this dongle with the RT-AC86U?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I'am using firmware Asuswrt Merlin release 386.7 in the router.

We have a location where I use a NETGEAR 4G LTE Broadband Modem (LM1200) feeding the WAN port of an RT-AC68U and it works great. Much less hassle than a USB Dongle.

Any chance you can buy a used Huawei B525? They can be bought on Ebay pretty cheap and will have better speeds compared to a dongle.
