This was really helpful to me, I've been complaining about the router because my downloads has been slow because I've been connecting to the 2.4 Ghz when having a good network coverage in my residence. But after watching this video I changed to 5ghz and my downloads Has been extremely fast. Because of you am now enjoying what I paid for, thanks man.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience! It's great to hear that you're now enjoying the fast download speeds that your router is capable of. I'm glad that my video was able to help you with that.
The 5GHz band is generally less congested than the 2.4GHz band, so you should experience faster speeds when you're connected to it. However, the 5GHz signal is also shorter range than the 2.4GHz signal, so you may not be able to connect to it as far from your router.
If you're having trouble connecting to the 5GHz band, or if your download speeds are still not as fast as you'd like, you can try the following:
Move your router to a more central location in your home.
Make sure that there are no obstructions between your router and your devices.
Upgrade your devices to Wi-Fi 5 or Wi-Fi 6 if they're not already.
I hope this helps!
Thank you Sir, This was helpful
Thanks, you can recommend video for us to make next.
@@kinspiretech Please Sir do you by any chance know how to add or put a data limit daily, If so please can you make a video for us about it
Hi @@mekwunyewisdom2018,
Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you're enjoying my video tutorial on Setting Up MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to add a daily data limit to an MTN 4G router. I've done some research, but I haven't been able to find any information on how to do it.
If I find out how to do it, I'll definitely make a video about it. In the meantime, you can try contacting MTN customer support to see if they can help you.
Thanks for your support!
Best,
KinspireTech
P.S. If you find out how to add a daily data limit to an MTN 4G router, please let me know and I'll make a video about it!
Thanks for this
Thanks for the comment, and we would love to know what other videos we will like us to make.
Very Informative.... Please is there a port where i can connect external antenna to the router to improve reception for the router 1st
Hi there, thanks for watching my video!
Yes, the MTN 4G MiFi has two SMA female connectors for connecting external antennas. You can find these connectors on the back of the router.
To connect an external antenna, you will need an antenna cable with SMA male connectors on both ends. You can purchase these cables online or at most electronics stores.
Once you have the antenna cable, simply screw one end of the cable into the connector on the router. Then, screw the other end of the cable into the connector on the antenna.
Once the antenna is connected, you should see an improvement in the signal strength of your router. You can test the signal strength by using a WiFi analyzer app on your smartphone.
Here are some tips for getting the best results from your external antenna:
Place the antenna in a high location, such as on the roof or on a hill.
Orient the antenna in the direction of the 4G tower.
Avoid placing the antenna near metal objects or other sources of interference.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
🎉🎉🎉tnks alot
Hey, can I adjust the antenna to improve network? How do I know the it's fully charged? Can I see my network strength?
Adjusting Antennas to Improve Network:
Yes, you can adjust the antennas on your wireless router to enhance network performance.
Position the antennas for maximum coverage:
Place them centrally and adjust their orientation.
Experiment with different configurations for better connectivity1.
Elevating the router (even with a simple cardboard box) can also make a difference2.
Checking Battery Charge:
Unfortunately, the video title doesn’t mention battery charging.
For battery status, refer to the router’s display or manual.
Viewing Network Strength:
Look for signal bars or an indicator on the router.
Some routers have web interfaces showing signal strength.
You can also use a Wi-Fi analyzer app on your phone.
Good day sir...... Is it that I will connect the router power bank to the Router before charging?? Cause I try to charge the power bank it not bring light until I connect it with the router and I on the power bank then the two blue light will on.
Yes it must be connected and powered on before charging.
Hi there, do I by any chance know how I can get the adapter or UPS50 itself?
You can check in any electronics retail store near you.
I also I got mine used it for some days and all of a sudden the 2 arrows started showing even though I have enough bundle on it but the sim card is not mtn
You can't be able to browse without MTN sim card in the router.
I just got mine today but my question is that,how can I use those number writing on the body?
Hi there! The numbers on the back of your MTN ZLT S50 router are most likely the default Wi-Fi password and SSID (network name). This video actually covers changing the default password. In most cases, it's recommended to change the default password for better security.
Let me know if you have any other questions about using those numbers or setting up your router!
Please my battery doesn’t last and I have charged it for long. My question is, when charging the power bank, do you have to switch it on before it starts charging or it can be switched off and still be charging even without connecting it to the router itself.
it must be on while charging
My battery is not even charging
@@JoJo-mm8sn Please explain with details let's understand you better.
Please tell me about the battery life after power is out?
It lasts about to hours
Please my battery indicator light for my external battery source is not on while charging. What's happening ?
What light is it indicating.
How can I update the firmware for my mtn broadband 4G router ZLT S50? I can’t find it on the router settings web page. Please help
Hi there,
Thanks for your comment on my video about setting up the MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router.
To update the firmware for your MTN ZLT S50 router, follow these steps:
Go to the MTN website and download the latest firmware for your router.
Extract the firmware file to your computer.
Connect your router to your computer using an Ethernet cable.
Open a web browser and enter the IP address of your router in the address bar. The default IP address is 192.168.1.1.
Log in to your router using the username and password that you configured when you first set it up.
Go to the Firmware page.
Click the Browse button and select the firmware file that you downloaded in step 1.
Click the Upgrade button.
Your router will restart and the firmware will be updated.
If you can't find the firmware update page on your router's settings web page, it's possible that you're using an outdated version of the firmware. To fix this, you can try updating the firmware manually using the steps above.
If you're still having trouble updating the firmware, please contact MTN customer support for assistance.
Hope this helps!
I’m still finding it difficult to set up mine. When I type the number in my chrome , I do not get the same result as you.
Is there a way you can assist me with it privately? Can I chat you on WhatsApp or any other social media?
What number are you typing.
@@kinspiretech thank you
Really helpful but I would like to find out if it can be used in Ghana?
No it can't, try visiting MTN office at Ghana to check if they have the device.
@@kinspiretech Thank you.
Hello
I have gotten one of this and is working in Ghana but I sometimes get prompts like connected without internet intermittently and then comes back to connected. What could be the problem and also what settings would you recommend for me to have a very fast internet connection in Ghana.
Hi @@assuamberekwandohsekyim9611,
Thanks for reaching out about the MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router. It sounds like you've got it set up and working in Ghana, that's great!
The occasional "connected without internet" prompt can be frustrating. Here are a couple of things that could be causing it:
Signal Strength: Cat 6 routers are built for speed, but they can be sensitive to signal strength. Check the signal bars on your device - a weak signal can cause intermittent connections. Try moving the router to a different location with a clearer view of the cell tower.
MTN Network: It's possible there are temporary network issues in your area. You could try contacting MTN customer support to see if they are aware of any outages.
As for settings for a faster connection, there's not a whole lot you can adjust on the router itself to dramatically boost speed. However, here are a couple of tips:
Make sure you have a good signal: As mentioned above, this is key.
Limit connected devices: The more devices using the Wi-Fi, the slower the speeds for everyone. Try disconnecting unused devices to see if it makes a difference.
If you're still having trouble after checking these things, it might be worth reaching out to MTN support directly. They may have some additional suggestions specific to your area and network conditions.
I hope this helps!
@@kinspiretech Hello
Thank you very much for insight. I really appreciate it.
Please, is this the same speed as the hynetflex? Or is that one faster?
There are many factors that determine the speed, but this one is more faster than the hynetflex with more upgrades in it.
@@kinspiretech oh alright thanks. This is the one I have and the speed I get is not very satisfying. Used it severally for live stream and it lags badly
Do you have a video that shows how I can apply such upgrades?
@@onyedikaisrael So sorry for the lagging, but have you tried changing the position of the router, and such upgrade are hardware so consider taking it to MTN for a swap.
Thanks for this video, please is this the same as hynet flex
Yes, they are the same, no much difference apart from the form factor (design of the body).
Not exactly
It is like a stripped-down version of Hynetflex
Hynetflex has 4 Ethernet connections, this one has one
The external battery of Hynetflex is 5,000mah, while this is 4,000mah; while some sources say it is 2,000mah
I consider the signal to be better and the connection more stable with Hynetflex
I have both routers
Shalom
please is there a way to switch my zlt s20 band selection from 2.0 to 5?
I'm not seeing that option to change it
Yes there is.
@@kinspiretech okay what of on the zlt s20 cat 5 router please?
@@realintro7470 We didn't understand your question. You can send us an email for more clarification and guidance.
My router is showing blue light then all of a sudden it will show red light and the network is so slow, please is there any fix for it
Try repositioning your router, it looks like signal reception is not good where it is.
Please, what is the right way to insert the SIM card
Insert it the way it appears on the body of the router, try it and let us know if it worked.
HELLO! How long does the battery last after being fully charged?
an average of 4 hours
Can I also use it with a 12v/15v solar panel?
Have you tried it?
@@OluwoleDaniel-jl8se Yes it may work, but i haven't try it.
@@OluwoleDaniel-jl8se Yea it may work, we haven't tried it, but you may want to check the power rating of the adapter.
@@OluwoleDaniel-jl8se it'll work perfectly
Nice review bro, Pls is it universal or only work with MTN SIM
It works with only MTN sim
hello so i got mine used it for some days and all of a sudden the two arrows started showing red light
Check if your data subscription is still active or check your sim card is active.
Mine says it’ comes with free 50gb. Any idea how to activate the free 50gb of data?
Visit any MTN service center for them to activate it for you.
❤❤
Thanks
Does this actually have 5ghz frequency or just 2.4?
Yes, the MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router does have both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies. The 2.4 GHz frequency is more common and has a longer range, but it can be more crowded with other devices. The 5 GHz frequency is newer and has less interference, but it has a shorter range.
To use the 5 GHz frequency on your MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router, you will need to connect to the "5GHz_MTN" network. You can find this network by opening your Wi-Fi settings and scanning for available networks.
I hope this answers your question. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Please how do you check the data balance
Watch this video ruclips.net/video/HsT8TQqMHQg/видео.html
Good day sir, my Router is only opening one siginal, the 2 and 5g can't open togahter
What happened?
Where can I get this mini router
Go to any MTN Costumer Service Center at your location.
Pls how to charge the wifi or know it charging pls
Okay working on it
Thanks fir the video. I am considering buying this. Can power bank charge it ?
I can't atest to that, because I haven't checked it out, but lots of factors are to be considered, like power-rating of the router and voltage rating too, the power bank of the router lasts for about four hours.
Hey, fo i connect to 4g or 5?
Please i did understand what you were asking.
Pls show a video of how to fix the sim
I will make a video on that, but try watch this if it can be of a better assistant ruclips.net/video/HFAe_3TesUU/видео.html
How do I connect to the router cause I cant remember the password I used. And I reset It,just that it changed to Its default name.
Connect with the password on the body of the router or you use ethernet cable.
Can I set this up using my phone?
Yes you can
Did you know how to unlock this router for all networks?
Unfortunately, I cannot provide instructions on how to unlock routers for all networks, as it can be potentially illegal and may void your warranty. Additionally, providing such information could also put others at risk of unauthorized access to networks or potential security vulnerabilities.
@@kinspiretech Alright 👍
How can I stop this red light 🚨 thing and have mine router get working
Which network provider sim is in the router?
@@kinspiretech Vodafone Gh... Actually they said it is universal ... But after using it for someday.. I didn't buy it from MTN
@@JamesQuartey-rq8tg Hi kinspiretech,
Thanks for your comment on my RUclips video. I'm glad you found it helpful.
I see that you bought your ZLT S50 router from Vodafone Gh, but it's not working with your MTN SIM card. I'm not sure why this is happening, but it's possible that the router is not compatible with MTN's network.
I would recommend contacting Vodafone Gh to see if they can help you troubleshoot the issue. You can also try contacting MTN to see if they can provide you with a compatible router.
In the meantime, you can try using a different SIM card in your router to see if that works. If you have a friend or family member with an MTN SIM card or Vodafone Sim, you could ask them to lend it to you for testing purposes.
I hope you're able to get your router working with your MTN SIM card or Vodafone Sim soon. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
@@kinspiretech can you unlock it for me to be universal...
@@JamesQuartey-rq8tg No you can't, because it is coustomized to MTN.
My network speed is very slow and tips to make it faster

Hello, Please is it Possible to do these settings on a Mobile Phone browser too?, or it mugs be on a Computer?
Thanks for your question. Yes, it is possible to do the settings on a mobile phone browser too. You can simply open the web browser on your phone and type in the IP address of your router. The default IP address for MTN routers is 192.168.1.1. Once you have opened the router's settings page, you can follow the instructions to configure your router.
Here are the steps on how to set up your MTN router on a mobile phone browser:
Open the web browser on your phone.
Type in the IP address of your router.
Enter the username and password for your router.
Click on the "Settings" tab.
Follow the instructions to configure your router.
Here are some of the settings that you may need to configure:
The SSID and password for your Wi-Fi network.
The APN settings for your mobile network.
The security settings for your router.
If you are not sure how to configure your router, you can refer to the user manual that came with your router. You can also search for tutorials online.
I hope this helps!

Just got mine, its just showing the power light
Hi there! It sounds like your MTN ZLT S50 is powering on, which is a good first step. The video you're watching, "Setting Up MTN ZLT S50 Cat 6 Router", should walk you through the complete setup process.
But since you're only seeing the power light for now, here are a couple of things to check:
Is the SIM card inserted correctly? The video might mention where the SIM card goes and how to insert it.
Is the power adapter securely plugged in? Double-check the connection to the router and the outlet.
If you've confirmed those and you're still just seeing the power light, you can try skipping ahead in the video to see if there's a troubleshooting section. Otherwise, leave a comment on the video itself - often the creator or other viewers can offer additional help.
hello, please is the defult network a 4g+ or just 4g ?

Hi there,
I understand that you're having trouble enabling both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi networks on your MTN 4G Router.
According to the search results I have, it is possible to enable both networks simultaneously. This is called Simultaneous Dual Band. However, it seems that your router may not be configured to do this.
To check if your router is configured for Simultaneous Dual Band, you can log into the router's settings page. The login information is usually printed on the back of the router.
Once you're logged in, look for the Wireless settings. You should see an option for Dual Band. If the option is set to Selectable Dual Band, then you will need to change it to Simultaneous Dual Band.
Once you've made this change, save the settings and try enabling both networks again. If this doesn't work, then you may need to contact MTN support for help.
Here are some additional troubleshooting tips:
----Make sure that your devices are compatible with 5GHz WiFi.
----Try moving your router closer to your devices.
----Restart your router and your devices.
I hope this helps!
Try it and get back to us.

No We won't laugh, because knows all. But in regards to your question it won't work, it only works with MTN SIM, you can try getting Universal Router that allows multiple SIM.
Mine is only showing 2.4ghz
How do I switch 5gjz
ruclips.net/video/heccEE05YBM/видео.html
Your question is not very clear
Is it that 5GHz wifi is not showing up on your device or how to enable it on the router
To enable it on the router go to WIFI settings and enable the 5GHz wifi, and fill up the other parameters
Go to the WIFI settings of your device
The SSID for the 5GHz wifi should show up, provided your device supports 5GHz wifi [ 802.11ac]
If your laptop/PC does not support 5GHz wifi, you can buy USB adapter for 5GHz wifi, which will allow you to connect to the router 5GHz wifi
For an android phone, the 5GHz wifi SSID should show up in the WIFI settings of your device, if supported
However, in some old phones, you may have to change the channel number of the router to like 139 to 160
That would allow the 5GHz wifi band to show up on the phone
To find out if your phone supports 5GHz wifi, you can install and run a device info app
Shalom
Which password did you use
The password is always written on the body of the router which says "WLAN KEY" unless it has been changed which you can reset the router, by pressing the reset button.
I forgot my password
So sorry for that, I would love to know the password you forgot, but meanwhile a Reset on the router can fix it all.
Next time speak up
Thanks for the observation, we are working on it.
