    Apart from the hardware differences (other cpu), routers mainly distinguish WiFi.
    The MR6400 model works in the N standard on the 2.4 GHz frequency, while the MR200 works in the AC750 standard and is dual-band 2.4 and 5 GHz. Both routers reach max. 150 Mb / s in LTE range.
    Personally, I think that small home networks N is sufficient, but you have to answer the question yourself which will be more suitable for you.

    E5573 at a distance of 1km should receive very well, so the question arises whether the antenna you are talking about is definitely Plus / Polsat?

    If you want to connect a computer with a cable, you need a router with a LAN (RJ45) port, so both of your routers meet these requirements, but I suggest you check the range on E5573 first - go into configuration / status and check the signal.

    Contrary to appearances, Huawei E5573 is not bad at all, all the more for 1km ;)

    And what are your LTE signal parameters and Plus speed at peak times? What is the city / expenditure of PLN 400-500 for these TP Links not sensible? A router of LTE-A category 6 with Gigabit and WiFi ports in AC is bought for this amount. Do you have a subscription with Plus? Plus E5573 works with http://www.lte-anbieter.info/ltewatch/count_huawei.php?Datei=ltewatch_h. After logging in to E5573 it shows the LTE and CID BTS signal parameters. Allows you to force a specific LTE band on the E5573. Plus uses LTE1800Aero2, LTE800Sferii and its own LTE2600. What's wrong with E5573?

    3/5 LTE lines?

    As for the device ... it is not the router that is damaged, but the battery -> replace the battery ;)

    If your card can change to 3G then do so and check the effect. Replace the batteries anyway - the router is a bit worth it, and nobody will take it with a "bomb" inside.

    As for the replacement of equipment is agreed, the MiFi mobile router for 24/7 continuous operation is a mistake. But this is not your main problem but Plus. Transfers at this level practically exclude it. LTE1800Aero2 and LTE800Sferii operate on BTS Grunwaldzka 48. DL speeds indicate that it is massacred clogged. Check if http://www.mediafire.com/file/1yz26m6u8gfl16n/E5186+Toolbox_latest+v0.9.zip works with this E5573. There is nothing to use on 3G because it's Plus and so there are strict limits. The optimal advice is to change operators.

    You extended without equipment, under what conditions? In Plus, after giving notice, you can have DUK for 25 PLN 60GB + LTE without limit (contract for 18 months). With equipment, e.g. 40GB for PLN 25 + B315 for PLN 3 (property contract 26 months), 70GB + B315 for PLN 3, cost PLN 35 / month. All without SmartDom. But at such speeds, the extension of the contract is suicide, in addition a 2-year perspective with such internet. No chance for improvement is a Plus. LTE coverage for other operators, LTE1800NetWorks for T-Mobile and Orange. In T-Mobile for 45/55 PLN offer without limit and for 1 PLN router B525 with LTE-A worth 400-500 PLN. In Play, coverage of St. Mikołaja 1, on it LTE1800, LTE2100, LTE800 and possibly LTE2600, of course, their aggregation. Another in July on LTE1800, LTE2100 and LTE800. At Play without a subscription you can still have the Free LTE Internet service without limit for 5/15 PLN per month. You need to check Orange, T-Mobile and Play.

    And what does this extension's regulations look like? In Plus there is a provision for FUP and according to him, i.e. I see the operator, data limits are set at which LTE internet slows down and to what values. There is no LTE internet in Plus with no data limit and speed limit9 (funnels). The price of 60 PLN is a mockery for the customer. And the contract is always pronounced before the expiry of the period for which it was concluded. After termination, DUK contacts you and you get a 50% discount and equipment immediately. How can you be satisfied with Plus's Internet operating at such speeds? The same in BDI Aero2 is for free and not for 60 PLN. Why do you need "unlimited LTE" at such speeds? Equipment weak E5573, such MiFi you buy for 80-100 PLN and you pay them for renting 10 PLN / month and so. Why buy anything to Plus? Any investment is a waste of time and In two years the equipment will be newer, operators offer LTE-A equipment for sensible cash. I gave the B315 as an example from Plus and for PLN 3 in the DUK offer, those with LTE were PLN 99 each. Now they have the B525 offer with LTE-A. On the free market the cost of B525 with T-Mobile is about PLN 400, those from Play, Plus about PLN 500. From the other 6 categories E5186, B618. Now with T-Mobile also B528, B529 and Play B715 with LTE 11 This offer from Plus is a bad joke with a real no limit on 3g / LTE in T-Mobile where DL for 20 PLN / month is DL up to 20Mbps and you get B525 for PLN 1. Just a router worth 400-500 PLN as I wrote if someone has their own LTE equipment, on Play without a contract, they have a DIL service on RBM with a 5 card from RWK for 5 PLN / mo. So what is the meaning of kor getting something from Plus with DL 200Kb / s because I can't name it on the Internet for PLN 60 / month? Plus, instead of modernizing the network for a long time, money is spent on silly, lying TV advertisements.

    There will be no end - you won't say it, the agreement goes on only indefinitely!

    You must terminate your current contract at least 30 days before it ends.

    I'd rather avoid the already mentioned penalty for (significantly) earlier withdrawal.

    It is important what date of withdrawal you give and not when you send them such a letter.

Topic summary

The discussion centers around the comparison of two TP-Link LTE routers, the MR6400 and the Archer MR200, for improving internet performance in a small town setting. The user currently utilizes a Huawei E5573 modem with LTE internet from Plus but is experiencing unsatisfactory speeds and is considering a stationary router. Key differences highlighted include the MR6400's N standard on 2.4 GHz and the MR200's dual-band AC750 capability, which may offer better performance for home networks. Users suggest checking the current signal strength and performance of the E5573 before making a decision, as well as considering the potential for upgrading to a more advanced LTE-A router within the budget of PLN 400-500. Concerns about the Plus network's performance and the possibility of changing operators are also discussed, with recommendations for exploring options with T-Mobile and Orange.
