Then click on "Apply" at the bottom of the page. Under USB Device select "USB Modem" then under APN Configuration select "Manual" then under location select "USA" then under ISP select "SPRINT". Once it reboots go back into the ASUS Admin page above and click on the USB Application menu. When you click apply it will re-boot your ASUS router. Then on the same page Click on the DualWAN tab and under Primary WAN select "USB" and toggle the button above it that says Enable Dual WAN to "OFF" then click on "Apply" Then on the left hand menu of the Admin page click on the WAN menu and change the mode to "USB" To make the needed changes access your ASUS Routers Admin page by going to one of the following addresses: 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.2.1
Second: I applied the following changes to the set up instructions above since the instructions are for tethering to an Android phone and I needed to have it set up for a Mifi 8000 USB Modem not an Android phone. Note: Make sure you tether your Mifi 8000 to your ASUS Routher USB 3.0 slot using the same usb cable that came with your Mifi 8000.įirst: I followed the steps for Setup Option #1 from this site. I have the Mifi 8000 tethered via usb to an ASUS RT-AC68U Router and am getting good download speeds anywhere from 45 Mbps up to 100 Mbps. I set up a Mifi 8000 which I received from Calyx with service over the Sprint Network.
