Does your Router Device Info
show wireless card details.

(b)
You have said WLAN working in laptop.
Not possible without some one making settings in the wireless part. of the router.
In "Available Wireless Networks" does yours, appear as Unsecured /secured ?

I can switch off my wifi WGR614 V6 and still access any unsecured wifi network in range .
Unfortunately , now all are secured !

22.6 KB WI5 needs dialer of ISP.

An unusual problem.
TRY
192.168.1.1./main.html
or
192.168.1.1/wancfg.cmd
Wireless menu to appear under Advanced options.

Would you mind, posting the screen shot of the Device Info page. JPG picture only.
or
please confirm
Board ID is 96338W.
The Screenshot I had posted also does not show the wireless board details. Checking up.
I don't have this modem/router/WIFI.
2.
Did you try this:?
192.168.1.1/wancfg.cmd



Noted the FW details and software version.

yes, my board id is 96338W and please refer my earlier post for device info

Could be because of different FW and software versions.
In my post one version ( similar Hardware board for WA3002-G4)does not show
wireless details, whereas the other one
lists the wireless driver details.
unfortunately I don't have either modem.

Will update , if any new info is available.

I have downloaded few firmware versions but I don't know which one is correct.

If Wireless is working no need for FW upgrades.
Risk of Router becoming "DUD" by using FW versions from different sources.
Wait for a user having your router to respond.

Is the only problem that you can't access wireless network setup page? Try different URLs like 192.168.1.1.home1.html.
Because mine one is also ZTE modem (no wifi) but even it doesn't show port forwarding, DHSP, IP routing, SNTP client, backup like options in default page (192.168.1.1). I can only access them from http://192.168.1.1/home1.html page. On default page, it only displays few basic options.
Certainly there would be any URL to access all available features of your modem.

No, My wireless is not working.
