    Hi, i'm searching informations about this router, but i cannot find anything. How it works with new firmware? Has it band lock for both 4g and 5g bands? Has it cell lock for both 4g and 5g cells? Anyone can compare 7302 with old model 7101?

    Which chipset it has? X62 qualcom or what?

    It has amazing hardware (RG520F x65 based, great antennas with good directivity) but crappy software: a bug in the dhcp implementation randomly disconnects all the clients. Not only they do not care nor provide a fix, but also it looks like they don't even have tested it as a related error shows up constantly in logs.

    It has been already widely reported.

    Apart from that yes it would have all what you are looking for.

    Zyxel gives zero f* about non-mega business customers for their CPE line.

    Well, a very arrogant sales rep i was in contact with was basically right. I have to give it to him. It's CPE, so the end-user does not concern Zyxel.

    However, Zyxel understimates the second-hand market, which may be future customers if they would support their products. Zyxel could easily provide a community firmware or a generic firmware for the NR7302. The NR7302 is a powerhorse with modded firmware by mobile carriers who don't understand and don't give a f* about proper software development.

    @n_o That's because you have a NR7302 from "Deutsche Telekom/Magenta". They don't have the option active in the firmware.

    The one from Austria, with A1 firmware has it active. However, i would not recommend to install the firmware from A1. There is a report that it bricks the device, at least to the degree where a "normal" user might not be able to recover the device. I did not try it out myself, because i have both versions, from Austria and Germany running in a productive setting. But I'm quite sure, that it can be recovered.

    As i said, Zyxel is too arrogant to provide support. I don't remember the name from the Zyxel support, maybe it's the user Selberg himself, who was very friendly at first, but then some higher up told him to stop support individual customers.

    Everyone should know that Zyxel is sus as f*.
