Log complaint as I am not facing such issue with this router.
 
@rajil.s You seemed to have used both Huawei HG8145V5 and Nokia G-140W-F. What differences did you find and which one was better in terms of range and stability?
I've heard Huawei one has poor range but works good when used as an ONT and Nokia one has good range and stability when used as an ONT+router but has problems with bridge mode.
 
I dont use the wifi features of Huawei router and only use it as a bridged ONT with a seperate pfSense router. Nokia does not offer capability out of the box and is pretty useless. I will hold on to the Huawei router as its availability is getting scarce and buy an access point separately (if you have issues with wifi).

Huawei HG8145V5 router has been rock solid for me with 100% uptime (24x7) over the last few months. It offers most features which you would expect which is crippled on the Nokia router. That Nokia router is trashbin worthy for anybody who has interest in networking.

HG8145V5 has poor coverage. Not happy. Airtel Extreme All in one plan is the highest in Airtel plans. I took it but the modem coverage is very bad.
