Sim based Router recommendation for 5G cellular network

[_Dexter]

Hey so I am looking for router that supports sim with 5G cellular network. Currently I am using 300 Mbps Wireless N 4G LTE Router .
I haven't found any single available 5G Router in India.

@MrGordon Jio 5G is IPv6 only? I also see IPv4 address when I use 5G though.

@MrGordon This is what I have on TP-Link MR 6400

I still haven't received password for MC7010, so I have no idea what config available there.

Show WAN config, this is LAN.

Don't have dedicated WAN settings as this is 3G/4G router. So MC 7010 5G router ---> MR 6400 3G/4G router --> Computer. This is how I am using currently

@Zuke Yes, please check Jio 5G - IPv6 only on transport

You can still reach IPv4 destinations, as they employ 464XLAT and its transparent to the end user. If I connect to my phone hotspot when on Jio 5G, I see the exact same behavior as in the article.

@dexter22 Looks like you'll need to wait to get the creds, there would most likely config changes required on the MC7010 to work over a IPv6 only network like Jio 5G.

Btw the label with the creds is not pasted on the device either?

It's not on the device, not on the box, not on the quick guide and it's nowhere to be found. According to ZTE youtube videos, label comes separate in sticker format inside box. But it's not there. I think seller forgot to include. I've email ZTE global support. They asked me few details about device like IMEI, Date of purchase etc. Let's see

@MrGordon What do you think?
Compare Product: Archer AX80 vs Archer AX72 Pro

Both have almost same specs but 5000 rs difference

How about using this ?

Use any forwarding service like buyandship.in to get it in India.

You need the m.2 to ethernet adapter + Quectel RM520N-GL module. Because it's ethernet, you can dangle it outside your house and use ethernet cable to connect it to your main router.

@dexter22 have you tried login password as the last 8 single characters of either the pon or wan mac?

So for example if the mac is xx:xx:xx:xx:87:65:43:21 then try password as 87654321 ?

@vishalrao Tried doesn't work. Password is made of Uppercase character and digits. Like shown in screenshot below (took screenshot of some random yt video). Each router apparently have unique password.
