I have active connection of Airtel 4G Dongle (Huawei E5573Cs-609). I also have broadband connection.
But my broadband router is in another room, and I work in different room. So Wifi signal from broadband connection router is weak at place where I work.
Recently I discovered that my Airtel 4G dongle can also work as WiFi extender. I saw online for steps to make it work as Wifi extender.
In dongle's web based UI, I turned ON Wifi extender. It started displaying several Wifi networks in my Apartment, but was not displaying SSID of my broadband connection router. I manually added SSID, Password to add my broadband connection network. It was added and displayed in priority list.
Now I want to know whether my internet data is coming from Airtel 4G or through my broadband connection.
As per this website, its displaying Wifi router SSID in their home page - How to use Airtel hotspot 4G Router as Range Extender (WiFi Repeater)
