- On our Previous unboxing of the Huawei B535-232 we were asked what is better out of the Huawei B535 & the Huawei B525, we decided to do a video to breakdown the differences and what is better for various situations & needs.
We go through some of the specs and highlight the main differences between the two devices such as the CAT & the VOIP settings.

You can flash your b525 with the a firmware and you have all those features will appear.
This is how a review is done, straight to the point and no nonsense.
I hace anntlent 800 MHz band 20 blue color, what router would work better with that Signal amplifier?
Hi so B535 -232 states 4g+ on the box and B535-932 only 4g printed on the box..so will B535-932 still support 4g+?
Yes at Band 41
Hi. I have a b535 locked from my sim dealer. Is there a way i can unlock it ?
I had the black one and now the white one and both are fast for a while then starts lagging like mad when on PlayStation or phone it’s so annoying
That's strange, can you provide more information? is it on all device or?
Livewire Telecom yes on phones and consoles
I've had the b311 over a year and I have been more than happy with it it might be your signal in your area?
speed test pls
@Livewire Telecom.....Hi... still not clear which should I buy. The price of B525-23a is slighty higher, but the 535-235 seems to have much better features: CAT7, 4G+ (carrier aggregation) and support one more 4G band than B525 (28). The only advantage of B525 is MIMO. Is that the reason why the price is similar?
The B525 is at the end of life and will eventually be replaced by the B535, but you need to look at what device best suits your scenario, it will depend on how you use the device. It will be worth mentioning that support will obviously be around longer for the B535.
Thanks for the explanation.
I read that I can, relatively easily, plug a phone into the B525 RJ11 and make calls. Is see the B535 has VOLTE but is it true I cannot just plug a phone?
How about shutting off your radio while speaking?
We appreciate the feedback, unfortunately due to the environment we are in there are surrounding businesses that we cannot control but we have noted this ourselves and have took measured to soundproof the room in which we record, hopefully this makes a positive impact on our audio!
As a B525 user; i use it with bridge mode, this was why i bought it in the first place. thanks for the great video; thinking about upgrading to the b535.
instablaster
do you upgrade?
No speed test.... 😢
hi. great vid. do you know much about the B535? it's just that I have been plugging my standard line phone into it a it's been fine for phoning and receiving calls but now peoples calls are eing diverted to the answering phone service on sms. I have even tried phoning myself but the same thing happens.
which is better? i think i missed that part which one would you recommend?
The B535 is newer and the B525 has been discontinued now
B535 does support bridge mode? I don't have this option in T-mobile soft version. Is there any original huawei soft I can download and use bridge? I cant believe this modem does not have an simplest BRIDGE option... This comparison should also be done for hardware (like CPU), speed and differences between cat6 and cat7 - so in my opinion the title should looks like e"SIMPLE/FAST comparison". Thanks!
I believe its hidden in the firmware somewhere, but its a nightmare of a job hacking it into visible mode. Ideally it needs a specific firmware built which enables the function.
We don't have any Huawei soft that you can download to update your version unfortunately, we appreciate the feedback and will take it into consideration for future videos, thanks.
@@eFones hold on. You say you do have a pieces of equipment for sale with BRIDGE mode as you post here - czcams.com/video/xA6VWN6iFKc/video.html&lc=UgxwCPfFjenBDp_q0CF4AaABAg.96Z3996evTI96cB8WlutfH
but you dont have a soft for those? How is this possible? How do you recover bad/bricked modems then?
I think that replacing T-mobile brand soft with official Huawei soft with BRIDGE mode in it, will fix ppl problems with missing BRIDGE option. The question is how to get the firmware - I thought you have it. Can't you do any backup of the firmware? Thanks.
hi do you have unlock code for huawei b535 932?
Can you elaborate please?
Is the Huawei 5G Outdoor Antenna AF9E compatible with the Huawei B525 Router? I have the B525 and I don't have the budget to buy a 5G router for the moment, only for an antenna and I was thinking in the AF9E
No it's not, it's only compatible with 5G routers.
So which one better I'm still confused
I want to use it with an external antenna and use it as a regular modem only for the Internet😂😂😂
hello can you guys please make a guide for port forwarding on b535? i cant find any guides in internet.
This is a video we can look at making!
If you use LTE, you will not be able to part forward no matter what router you have, unless you ask your ISP for a public IP address, and that will cost you.
6:18 there is a new Huawei B535-333 which has the RJ11 port as well.
That's licenced by Huawei and without B32 aggregation from what I see, 235 is the original Huawei version that has VOIP port
Does any of them support both network 4g nd 5g
only 4g and 4g+
What type of antenna ports are they (size and name)
What do you recommend , the b535 or b525?
The B535 is a later model and the B525 has been discontinued I believe
@@eFones thank you for the info😇 Keepsafe and Godbless
I use B525 with mimo antena, plus mikrotek and gigabit switch hub. 70 to 100 mbps download. 13 device everything is fine
@@steveramos682 can you give me mimo antena😅😅 it’s very expensive though😅😅
In your review you state the 535 doesn't have the telephone RJ11. I have just purchased the 535-235 which has the RJ11. The 535-232 doesn't have the RJ11.
Yes, when referencing to the 535 not having the RJ11 port, we meant the 232 version.
Hi! what if i will use the B525 as an Ethernet? I will connect it to the modem which has a fiber internet connection? Would it be fine without any conflications?
Not sure what you are asking really, do you want to use it as a repeater for your current wifi or as a standard router?
Hi what is the dafault password of my Black mamba router because the sticker of back is wast please give me a password WPS is not working
Can the Huawei 535 be used both as a 4G router as well as a normal one (using fiber or ADSL) too?
No it cannot
If it was up to you which router would you consider buying?
We would go for the B535 as the B525 had been discontinued
Would they do good if i use them for only my playstation and computer with a ethernet connection?
It depends on the network provider you choose, the signal in your area and infrastructure etc.
You said the b535 doesn't work with voip. Does that mean I can't use discord or teamspeak
The older version doesn't, the B535-232 which we stock now does support it.
@@eFones bullshit discord and teamspeak isn't voip
@@CZcamsAdministrator discord and teamspeak IS voip. What the OP meant is the VOIP support of the telephone
ياعرب وش الافضل ؟
B535
I've ordered b535 but I'm curious would it work on my xbox one
It will be able to supply your device with a wireless and ethernet connection.
Yea it will I have the b311 on a three unlimited data contract had it over a year where I live I can't have fibre optic installed to my house so this router has saved me its very quick
I am confused, I have the B535-235 which does have the Telephone port.
What is confusing you?
Where's the part II with speedtest :D
We are hoping to shoot that soon, we currently have a backlog of video ideas we are working through, if you have anything you would like to see then please let us know!
@@eFones Please! Do the part II
Hello, can the USB Port on B525 used for printer sharing?
You should be able to but it will need configuration
Hi Guys, does the b535-235 have the voLTE to call in 4G without the 3G switch? thanks
Are you referring to VOIP or something different? could you give some more information please
eFones not Voip, voLTE is for calling in 4G instead of 3G. I’ve heard this router can be used to call with the sim you’re using (Rj11+old telephone) but i’m asking you cause i’m not sure about it. is there any setting on the router interface to enable voLTE or calls in 4G? Thanks, sorry for the confusion
Don't see any bridge mode in my B535-232 at all.
Hello, can I ask where and when you brought the device? as a newer version was released with bridge mode on quite recently.
I flashed my b525 and saw the bridge mode
where is a speed test?
Efones do you know any way I can make my wifi better because it’s not performing as good as it was before now it’s been getting slow
Which device do you have?
@@eFones the white one
Hi, what is the best router for gaming. Live in a rural area so havent got great internet and 4g is the only way forward. Thanks
If you haven't got great internet then no router will be ideal as a router is only as good as the internet it can pull, maybe the B535 will be most suitable.
can you help me out. and upgrad my 4g router from Huawei B311 tooo Huawei b525s 23a will i see better speeds?
The B525 is a similar age to the B311 and I believe both are discontinued or are being discontinued!
@@eFones question will i see a difference with b525s 23a?
Can i port forward on the B535?
We think this would be an option although we haven't tested it ourselves, we may look into this for a future video.
@@eFones ah okay nice
If you use LTE, you will not be able to part forward no matter what router you have, unless you ask your ISP for a public IP address, and that will cost you.
Do you have videos comparing these devices with the Huawei Al Cube?
We do not yet, this is something we can do in the future!
@@eFones Yes that would be great. Thank you very much!
hi any of this faster or the same ?
Would you like to see this in a video?
Putting your MIC on the table you are placing items onto is a bad idea. Got many deep thuds from my Sub when you bang / place items on a table. Suggest using a mic stand behind the table.Good otherwise Thanks.
Appreciate the feedback, this is something we going to be changing once we move into our new setup!
should've discussed which supports dual band 2.4 and 5ghz. some of 'em wanna know for sure
This is something we can do in the future.
Both
What a bout a Carrier agregation ?What freqvency can be used in b535 and what in b525?
I'm not sure which frequency you are referring to. I assume it may be the network bands? or maybe Wifi?
B525:
GSM: 850 900 1800 1900
HSDPA: 900, 2100HSPA+
LTE: LTE-FDD: 800, 900, 1500, 1800, 2100, 2600, LTE-TDD: 2600
B535-235
Network Frequency Band: LTE: B1 / B3 / B7 / B8 / B20 / B28 / B32 / B38, UMTS: B1 / B8
@@eFones What are carrier agregation freqvencies?
@@eFones if you combine two or three freqvencies you git CA carrier agregation.I was wondering what are CA freqvencies that 525 supports?
What good? B525 or B535 ?
B535 is the newer model
Can I use any sim cards in that devices?
Yes, all devices come sim free, unlocked to any network.
Would you be able to put the archer mr600 up against these?
It is something we may be able to look at doing in the future.
Do a video where you show the antenna installation please.
No problem, this is something we can do in the future.
@@eFones can I buy b535 and use in another country by using a different SIM?
I have this new router the download and upload is good but i like to game and the ping is quite high any tips or tricks to lower the ping?
We cannot alter the spec of the device. Variables that could improve speeds are Network Providers, external antenna or good placement of the router.
What's your ping
Change the channel in your settings when typing your ip address In to Google
can you help me? what the default password key wifi in Huawei B535 At the back
It will be in the manual or on the bottom of the device (Could be "admin").
@@eFones no password wifi key
Should be admin for the password to your router
In this video you said the full model number is B535-232 but on Amazon it's B535-23*5*. Does the 235 have a phone port? Some of the screenshots on your amazon have one. Are you sure the B535 has bridge mode because there are many posts on forums stating otherwise.
At the time of making this video, we had stock of the B535-232 which is the older version and doesn't support VOIP, we now stock the B535-235 which does support bridge mode and VOIP.
What's a bridge mode again?
Bridge mode is the configuration that disables the NAT feature on the modem and allows a router to function as a DHCP server without an IP Address conflict.
@@eFones In layman's terms please, if it's not too much to ask.
I have b525 in philippines. Can i used here in taiwan? Please reply sir. Thank you
A B525 will work in Taiwan but the B535 will not, you would need a B535s to work there.
@@eFones what the difference between B535 and B535s ?
@@eFones how to know this kind of information? i've b525 for my 4g sim and it's fast, i wanna buy but b535 is on the same price but cat7 which should be better and i dont wanna regret some compatibility
issues
Any sim can use?
Yes the devices come unlocked to any sim card.
Speed Test Is More Important Than More Talking
Do they both have carrier aggregation?
The B535 does but the B525 doesn't.
yes, Huawei B525 also has CA(is LTE cat6), I'm using Hmanager (android app installed on phone) to manually select the LTE bands and it also suports 4G+, B3+B20, B3+B8, B1+B3,B1+B8, etc...
@@DxExcalibur hi Excalibur. I currently have a 525 and subscribed to Three who use bands 1, 3 and 20 in my area. I rarely see 4G+ on my router and have been told that although the 525 does have CA, it won't CA on bands 1 & 3 together (where I would be very likely to get 4G+) but only 3 & 20, 20 being quite slow in comparison.
Is this correct? Would dearly like to see more 4G+.
Add if so, I suppose I'd have to go for the 535 (Although it's a bummer that it doesn't have the RJ11 telephone port)
Advice please?
Thank you.
I live in a area with poor broadband but my 4g is really good can these routers be used with nest smart thermostats will it work ok. Thanks
I can't say we have experience with a Nest Smart Thermostat but, they are 4G routers that should operate well in a good 4G environment.
How do you know what cat you need?
It depends in which scenario you are referring to?
Livewire Telecom is higher the cat the faster it goes down the cable 🤷♂️🤔
cat6 if your on about lan
thats gold in the phillipines haha
ako budoy
How does it work? Does it get the Internet from the sim or the actual device
The internet comes from a sim card.
What about B715
That is not a device we currently stock but we will look into this!
Hi, please can you tell me what range these both work over, for eg would they transmit upstairs to bedroom ,thanks
It will reach that distance most likely, it won't have any issues up to 10 meters through walls but after that (if there are walls in between) the signal may then start to slow.
Does B535 support LTE Carrier Aggregation?
Hi, yes it does
@@eFones Alright thanks!
Follow up question. Aside from B525 & B535, would you know what other Huawei modems can support carrier aggregation?
The majority of higher spec Huawei modems support it
@@eFones Great! Thanks!
How to openline B535-932 can somebody help me?
What do you mean by that?
@@eFones openline = unlock in the philippines
All our devices come unlocked to any network, I'd recommend going to back to who you brought it from.

@@eFones Hi...good to know.
I am looking (as others i guess) to find out which one performs better on the same sim and which performs better at busy times etc, strongest signal etc which is better.
Cheers
@@paulturley6797 No problem, they are both very good devices, the B525 is discontinued now though so it will be harder to source.

Do you know how to have an admin access for huawei b535? I don't have admin password it's hard for me to change band frequency
The admin password should be on the bottom/back of the device or on the box?
The background music gets on my nerves...
The 'telephone in' port he keeps referring to looks a lot like a LAN in port. Does this mean that the B535 doesn't work as an AP?
Also I'm pretty certain the CAT7 reference is to do with setting it up with LAN connections to other devices rather than having much to do with LTE signals, like CAT 6 and CAT7 are network cable ratings.
Thats an rj11 port which is not used in the uk (i think). CAT is also used for LTE. Idk what you mean AP mode
The RJ11 port is for use of VOIP, I'm not sure what you mean by AP either.
@@eFones Access Point
I have both of them.
How are you finding them? Do you see any noticeable differences?
Winner?
Awesome review been looking huawei b525
Which is better?
Watch it to the end to find out...
I saw it but I do not understand English
@@lverst5904 We highlighted what device would be best in various different scenarios, it will be quite long to break down in a CZcams comment but try watching the video with subtitles from your native Country.
Livewire Telecom ....Well, thanks for your quick reply ❤️
Livewire Telecom you don’t even mention which one is better. Stop saying something, to get people to watch your whole video. Just be honest and say taht you mention all differences.
Whats the sim card bit for im so confused? Like a phone sim??
Yes, the device takes a sim card with data on it so you don't need to be plugged into a phone line like a generic modem. You just plug into a wall wherever you want it and you're good to go.
Good vedio but MUSIC is noisy
Thank you for the feedback, again, just to iterate what was said in a previous comment we have taken steps to soundproof the room in which we record and hope this makes a better, crisper and clearer audio with less background noise.
Does it suport DDNS (ex. Dyndns)?
Which one are referring to?
This is hidden :P Try this - www.ispreview.co.uk/talk/threads/huawei-b535-232-4g-lte-router-issue.36112/page-4#post-246049
Please note that for B525 the commands are:
$('#dhcp_dns_statistic').show();
$('#dhcp_primary_dns').show();
$('#dhcp_secondary_dns').show();
Whereas for the B535 the only required command is:
$('#dhcp_dns').show();
