Review: Not quite plug and play but works well after tweaks - I bought this 4G03 Pro router as a temporary workaround for problems with my wired broadband It’s very dinky compared to a typical router but the antennae at either side are relatively large I took a working O2 MBB SIM and put it in this router but initially speeds were poor and it would regularly disconnect. I had to go into the settings and manually correct APN etc. as the auto-selected options were all wrong. I also changed it to 4G only mode which caused it to switch from band 1 to band 20, which on O2 should theoretically be better. After these tweaks speeds were a lot higher, topping out at around 20Mbits/s which is reasonable compared to what I’ve gotten from other devices in the building. I then switched over to Vodafone and it seemed to do a better job of auto-detecting settings. It has been peaking at more like 35Mbits/s which is about half of what my iPhone gets - pretty good seeing as that phone cost many times the price of this device and is supposedly Cat18. More importantly, it seems quite stable so far The firmware interface is quite basic and sometimes a bit glitchy, but it feels surprisingly snappy So I would recommend this product providing you already have some experience setting up mobile devices and aren’t expecting blazing fast speeds at this price. Obviously there are more expensive options available that should be faster
Review: Perfect for voice landline replacement - I bought this for a very specific purpose which was to take advantage of unlimited voice minutes to use instead of my landline with desk phones. I'm using a SIM from Smarty which meant that I needed 4G VoLTE support and the signal in the intended room is a bit smelly so I needed a device that would support external antennae. I needn't have worried. I was surprised to find both SIM adaptors and an RJ11 cable bundled in the box which was a bonus. The 'internal' antennae (two elements on the back of the unit) are offering excellent signal strength and calls are clear and uninterrupted. Fair warning - I've tried this with two desk phones, one of which was separately powered and one which wasn't. The powered phone works perfectly and the passive one doesn't. Early days, but I'm dead happy so far.

### ⭐ Ultimately disappointed and no use
*by T***K on 22 December 2023*

I selected this because of the nano SIM slot for 4g, Wifi and the 2 ethernet ports, the latter allowed me to drop in line to an existing wired connection. It has a good (but limited) UI, no connection debug log and appears to be android based. However when it came to using the 3G/4G functionality it was useless for me 1) will not work with SIM from sub providers like Lebara where an MCC/MNC code is needed to work with the main provider. The UI does not support this, it is possible the tech support could provide a json file to work round this they provide an EMail for such but I didnt test 2) using a Vodafone sim self configured to an old APN and sort of worked, but if I used this profile or the one from the Vodafone website for the APN it only connected at 3G (the USB dongles I tested at the same time had no problem to get 4G using the same SIM) = slow 3) found a LycaMobile SIM (EE) worked too but was also very slow 4) it kept dropping the 3G/4G link regardless of if I set preferred or not. I may have just been unlucky with this unit but as I was disappointed and spent a day trying to make it work as expected enough was enough and gave up. Ultimately disappointed and no use
