Huawei E3372h-320 (2020), LTE/4G 150 Mbps USB Dongle, Unlocked to any network, (Genuine UK Warranty stock)- White

Needed for remote working during COVID situation as broadband is a little shaky. Used in a laptop. Perfect - unlike others doesn't need a degree in patience to set -up. Really is plug-and-play. Works with no fewer than 6 different SIMS- that is all of the 4 UK carriers and a couple of MNVO. The beauty of an unlocked dongle. Worth paying the slight extra money as I had purchased a cheap one through Amazon before which was poor and I had to return and got refunded. Go for this if you want a reliable dongle. It doesn't create a wifi hotspot , if that is what you are looking for - just works brilliantly for the one device.

This USB Modem was purchased for a cellular backup WAN link for a Cisco router. I chose this unit because it is a Cisco supported model, but there is a slight issue with these modems which you should be aware of the used with a Cisco router. Also ote that the unit takes a Mini-SIM, not the Micro-SIM stated in the instruction book, also don't mix up the Micro SD card slot with the SIM slot! That's really easy to do! Anyway all SIM cards will fit, just punch out the Mini-SIM holder, not the tiny Micro-SIM holder from your SIM card carrier. If you're buying it for a laptop or another purpose you won't have this issue, but if you're buying for Cisco then read on. Cisco only support a finite number of product ID's and Huawei ship these units with various ID's. There is no real way of telling which version you will get, but there are two things to bear in mind: 1. I found that despite my unit having a non-Cisco supported ID it works perfectly, only that the RSSI, IMEI etc are not reported to the router, so this limits the remote manageability. 2. The unit can be software upgraded to support Cisco, and that's why I say this Marketplace Seller (Livewire Telecom) is an excellent place to do business. Although my case is not quite closed yet, a new firmware version is on its way to me, and I have full confidence in the seller - the support has been excellent, right back to a direct line with Huawei and that's why I'm so pleased with the purchase and the experience. I'll be ordering another one soon and from this seller!

Really fast 4G dongle, i Recommend getting a few of the 6GB EE sim card for £15-£17 Each as it is a really good deal Only downside is it is only 4G compatible with an EE Sim card or a Three mobile Sim card which was an annoyance as i had just got a giff gaff sim with the £20 bundle for 6gb of internet only to find out you can only get a 2G signal on O2, so i then went down to EE and got a £35 bundle just for 6gb to be able to run 4G so i have now stocked up on a few 6GB EE sim cards from amazon for half the price i paid in the shop, Also on Vodafone you only get a 2G/3G signal Just a warning for anyone when buying this dongle other than that it works brilliant, I have just purchased a TP-LINK TL-MR3020 Portable 3G/4G Wireless N Router (2.4 GHz, 150 Mbps, USB 2.0, Travel Router (AP)) I hope that this dongle shall work with this so i can use my tablet and/or phone when out and about with this dongle All round great purchase, other than my own little mistakes ;)

A white elephant, does not install Manager as described in Quick Start Guide, configuration is done via web browser and is: So appaling bad as to be useless Incredibly slow Times out selected function and reveryts to the home page before you read and understand the settings option the options Only finds O2 despite supposedly being unlocked N0o full guide available anywhere Three week on from supplying Huawei with requested details and screen shots there's been no response apart from a "delivered" receipt fo my email with this information. I've wasted a couple of whole days at least trying to get it to work and got nowhere so returned it.

Very good plug and play. Unlike the older Huawei modems where you have to set up desk top icon to connect or find the dongle connection above wifi networks list, just plug in and run autorun.exe once from the stick. I used with Windows 8. After that, every time you plug it in, it just connects.You can configure networks, check data usage and update firmware via browser tab, no desktop icon needed. Fast as well on 4G, I noticed the difference compared to 3G. Build quality is a little flimsy, and it is quite bit bigger than the old 3G one. But it does come with a slot for micro SD card (not supplied), so it can double as storage stick. If you are going to be putting it in your bag/pocket a lot or dropping it on the floor, I'd only give it 3 or 4 stars for build, but kept safe from abuse it's a good performer.

I have done lots of research on this device in the last week since I received it from Amazon. I wish I'd done more of it before I bought the device, because I am a little frustrated with it if I'm honest. Let me explain first that I bought this specific device because it has a port for an external antenna - two in fact. I live in a very rural situation where the only option for broadband is 3G/4G mobile. I purchased this stick to plug into one of the two usb ports in my new ASUS router (RT N66U), to act as my sole WAN. Now what I hadn't realised until after the purchase is that this stick comes in two distinct flavours, the E3372h, and the E3372s. This stick (E3372h) is I think intended to be plugged directly into your pc/laptop. By all accounts it does not work well routers. Huawei have designed this stick to be as user friendly as possible, and it is - assuming you want to just plug it into your computer and go. On my Linux machine you just plug it in and it works, no settings, no APN entry nothing. It presents itself to the pc as an ETHERNET connection.. as if you'd just plugged in a network cable. For the average (Linux, I can't speak for the Windows) user, this is almost perfect, albeit with a 3G/4G selection caveat I will mention below. The problem with using this device in a router is that this model (apparently) has some routing functionality incorporated itself that means it has it's own NAT layer. Rather than delivering a public ip as an old-school modem would, this model delivers a specific IP address (namely 192.168.8.100), which has already been NAT'ed. I will say that my understand in this area is limited, but from what I gather, this means that router users such as my self will have a hard time getting this to play ball if you want to do things like DDNS, VPN, port-forwarding for gaming etc. because one you'll end up with a double-NAT situation. Anyway, apart from that issue, the web page (and only way) you use to control the device is somewhat limited. I also have another 4G Huawei MiFi device (E5776s-32) and on the similar web-style interface you can choose how you want to connect (ie. 3G only, 3G preferred, 4G only, 4G preferred etc.). On the E3372h however, you CANNOT FORCE IT TO STAY ON THE 4G connection (for this web/sw firmware anyway). Your options are a tick box for "LTE support", and choosing either AUTO or Manual under the network connections. If you choose manual, the device searches for 2/3/4G masts and providers from which you can select one, however even if you select a 4G band, the device seems to revert back to the 3G band from the same provider if it decides the strength is better. While this sounds like a good idea, it's not always. In my situation I happen to know that my relatively poor 4G signal is still 8 times faster than the stronger 3G signal from the same network provider. So I WANT TO CHOOSE which signal to attempt. I think also I am losing packets because it is switching back and forth between bands when I select "LTE Support", although I can't see for sure because I can't see what's going on when it's plugged into my antenna and router because I can no longer access the web page behind the router/ double NAT. After much frustration, I have ordered the other flavour of the same device, the E3372s (sorry Amazon). This I am told, will act more like a modem than a router, and my router (that supports 3/4G usb modem) should be able to order it around in "modem language", rather than it being subservient to the E3372h's routing whims. Apparently, Windows users can (with a bit of googling and determination) flash the "sitck" or "s" version of the firmware onto this device. I must admit I did try to do this in a Windows session within a VBOX on my Linux host, but I (along with many many others) were unsuccessful with getting the Windows guest to recognise the device. As far as the actual speed is concerned (when attached to a 4G signal), it performs well - hence me sticking with the other variant of this device. More expert people with more determination might be able to get this working properly with their routers, but I personally have wasted too much time trying. Hardware version: CL2E3372HM Software version: 22.200.05.00.1080 Web UI version: 17.100.11.00.1080

I haven't tried using this with a PC at all, just the router. I had my fritz box router provided by my ISP and from what I'd read the firmware version may have caused me issues. To prevent this (I don't know if it would have been a problem) after reading reviews online about updating the fritz box software I tethered the fritz box to my phone in wi fi bridge mode and did an auto update, plugged in the modem to the USB and just works perfectly... I don't know about longevity, but it's been my main source of internet in a heavy use household with a decent 4G signal using a couple of cheap external aerials for 10 days now and haven't had any issues whatsoever, because of the price i was slightly dubious as it seemed a bit cheap, but very happy so far! Takes a full size sim card, running on GiffGaff network no issues.

For years i had used an old E1550 dongle on my windows vista laptop but a couple of weeks ago i decided to purchase a refurbished windows 10 desktop computer. Rather disappointedly windows 10 wouldn't recognise my old dongle and so with no connection i was thinking of returning my desktop for a refund. In the end i wondered if buying a newer dongle would help, so i purchased one from "livewire telecom limited"; with no instruction it took me a while to work out how to open it (undo clips on side, then slide open, then slide sim in end). When i inserted my new E3372 dongle into the desktop computer it connected instantly. So of course i'm very relieved and very pleased with this purchase.

J'ai installé cette clé 4G sur un routeur Asus pour qu'elle me serve de secours quand ma ligne ADSL est coupée, il faut d'abord la connecter 1 fois sur un ordinateur pour faire quelque réglages et lancer la mise a jour automatique de la clé. Après elle fonctionne parfaitement et me permet grace aux connecteurs pour une antenne externe d'avoir 35mbps dans une zone ou la réception n'est pas idéale. Produit performant et de bonne qualité

Alles Bestens, funktioniert einwandfrei. Installation bei der Fritz-Box war ein wenig holprig, aber letztlich klappte alles!

Fonctionne très bien sur réseau Free, cependant chauffe l'été lorsqu'il faut chaud, comme tout ces systèmes de clé 4G malheureusement

Wir haben zZt kein DSL und somit habe ich eine Mobilflat bisher via FritzBox-greift-Smartphone-WLAN als Eingangs-Internet-ab verwendet. Laut Online-Monitor komme ich damit - egal wo ich das Handy hinlege auf max 3 Mbit, aber meistens eher zwischen 0,9 und 1,7Mbit. Nun einfach den 3372 in die Fritzbox gesteckt und schwupp komme ich auf 4-7,5Mbit ohne separate antenne. Das ist nicht nur in Zahlen ein Unterschied sondern vorallem mit Sky on Demand ein gewaltiger Unterschied. Oft kam nämlich mit Smartphone als Internet-Spender gar kein Internet mehr an und Homepages meldeten immer wieder mal, dass der Server nicht erreichbar sei, was aber nur am fehlenden Internet lag. Ziel war natürlich auch mittels externer Antenne den Empfang weiter verbessern zu können. Das kann ich mir erstmal sparen und später vielleicht im Campingurlaub als Reserve offen halten. Zur Einrichtung: 1) Fritzbox im Webbrowser aufrufen z.B. fritz.box und sich anmelden 2) Sim-Karte in LTE-USB-Stick schieben und PIN bereithalten 3) in Fritzbox Hauptmenü "Internet/Zugangsdaten" auf "Mobilfunkanbieter" klicken (hab' ich so gemacht, muss man vielleicht nicht 4) in "Internet/Mobilfunk" wechseln und erste Option aktivieren: "Internetzugang über Smartphone oder Mobilfunk-Stick per USB-Tethering aktiv Die FRITZ!Box erhält den Zugang zum Internet über das per USB angeschlossene Smartphone bzw. den angesteckten Mobilfunk-Stick. Solange der Internetzugang über USB-Tethering aktiviert ist, ist die Nutzung mit einer anderen Internetzugangsart nicht möglich." 5) darunter findet sich direkt der Hinweis, der bei mir mit folgender IP-Adresse verlinkt war: "Konfiguration für Mobilfunk-Stick Hier können Sie die PIN eingeben und weitere Einstellungen für den Mobilfunk-Stick vornehmen: 192.168.8.1" 6) über diese IP gelangt man direkt zum Webinterface von Huawei und wartet schon mit der Aufforderung zur PIN-Eingabe der SIM-Karte; bei mir konnte erstmal keine Verbindung hergestellt werden. Keine Ahnung warum, aber alles mal neu hochfahren hat dann doch irgendwie geklappt. Nach Ausrichtung der Fritzbox (30cm höher stellen) hatte ich dann volle Balken auf 4G. Mit dem Handy übrigens kein einziges Mal... auch nicht, wenn es auf oder neben der Fritzbox lag. Hinweis: ich hatte im Netz gelesen, dass der Stick nicht mit der Fritzbox 7490 und 7590 funktioniert, wenn er kein S nach der Nummer im Namen trägt. Aufgrund einiger Rezensionen habe ich dann gesagt: probieren geht über studieren und ich bin froh, dass die Investition in Höhe von 45€ so ein guter Deal war. Bin gespannt was im Camping mit Antennen noch möglich ist.
