E5577 White 4G Low-cost Travel Wi-Fi, Super-Fast Portable Mobile Wi-Fi Hotspot – Long-lasting Battery

easy to change the sim if traveling abroad, easy and practical for all those times when you want your own wifi, or can't get onto anyone else's.(and I had those times when free wifi just wasn't accessible). if there is a signal then a hotspot is the way to go! And this device has been reliable and simple to use. And not ridiculously expensive either.

We are a family of 5 and needed to do a big drive with 3 kids in the back of the car. Each of then have ipads and wanted internet for the journey to watch videos and play games. Did some research and all reviews said this was good and totally agree! It was a life saver. Really easy to setup and came with a smarty sim card. This little dongle provided great connection for 5 devices the whole journey and has a great battery life too. Would definitely recommend.

Returned because it is not dual band as stated in the product listing. It is single band 2.4Ghz. Found out only after I got it and couldn’t change to 5Ghz. Couldn’t increase the wifi speed no matter how much I toyed with the settings (was on 4G Three network through Smarty), limited channels available (6-11), would only ever get an average 7-8Mbps down but a whopping 20Mbps up. Not adequate speeds for home use - I suggest you shell out a extra £50 and get yourself a proper Cat 7 Huawei dual band router which is what I did and now my Internet speeds are up to 30Mbps download. Despite all that, it worked well for what it is made for (ie. cheap internet on the go shared between multiple devices) and actual device was good to use with respect to ease in setting up, easy to change settings Huawei AI life app, digital screen tells you how many devices connected and how much data has passed through and can display QR code for easy connection to the wifi device. For that I’ll leave review at 4 stars even though it didn’t suit my needs.

This was bought for using at home for my broadband instead of the usual telephone plus broadband service. It was not the easiest thing to set up, the instructions were not good. But I find that anything that comes from China is the same. But now I have got it working properly it works great. The speed is good, and I can watch catch up TV on the internet without a problem. The only issue is the battery. I bought this as it said it lasted 6 hours. But I was finding that this depends on your usage. If you set your programs to update automatically it runs the battery down, even if you are not using it. Also, it was set up to switch off when it was not being used for any length of time. I had to disable this function as I had to keep switching it on when I did want to use it. This was a pain. I can understand why it was set up this way. But it was no good for my type of usage. I found an updated app and downloaded it. I could set it up better using this. I have got it plugged into the USB point permanently to keep the battery at 100%.

Got this so as to connect 2 Smart tvs to the internet. While the TVs connect to the Wifi it will not connect them to the internet - blocking them some way. Phone and laptop works ok but not what i got it for. Tech support does not exist so for me a total waste of money and would not buy a HUAWEI product ever again.

3 stars because I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting, but this came in a plain brown box, not a branded one. A big problem is the fact that there were no instructions with it. After looking at the description, I see it says it should include 1x quick start. I eventually figured it out and then I noticed a pdf in the item description page. This does not help much though because it appears to be the instructions for a different model.

Replaced my old Huawei mobile device finally gave up the ghost after 5 years. This new one is lightweight in comparison. My mobile phone provider has stopped selling the Huawei device and are only selling/upgrading their own brand, the look of device is awful with no feature showing how much data you are using. So I'm so glad I was able to replace my device with a Huawei again. The only feature I miss is having a reset of how much data I've used. It now shows continuous data usage. You have to add your data allowance in the Huawei program manager settings. ( i.e. your data allowance you have monthly, via an app or web browser). But to be fair it is extremely accurate when I've checked with my data provider. Great purchase, easy as pie set-up, fast delivery.

you often read how "all you have to do is...." and you know you'll spend months on chat rooms trying to make your newest gadget work but this, really did straight out fo the box in went the sim and the already 50% chargefd battery and we were good to go. the charing cable made us laugh...it is very short. so we ditched that and used a 5m cable i had lying about, which works great. doesn't come with a plug either, but we had a spare USB mains plug socket we could use it is the most stable 4g connection we've ever had (and we were using a proper sized 4G router with a huge antennae before) it looks really tiny, but this, really, is what we wanted. i chose this one becauase you can plug in external antennaes. i already have some with SMA connections, so have just bougth some adapters fr the sma antennae i already have in fairness to this little munchkin of the the 4G router world, it is already getting 3 out of 5 reception bars at our home, with pretty poor reception for us

Installation assez simpliste. Suffit de s'y connecter en 192.168.8.1 pour paramétrer et saisir le code pin de la carte SIM. Débit nettement mieux de ce que m'apporte les opérateurs que j'ai eu. Des soucis de ligne qui ne savent pas résoudre. Pitoyable ces gens. M'enfin. Convient tout à fait à mes besoins. Affichage simpliste des datas consommés. On y devient accro après des mois sans internet. :D A testé sur du longs termes mais il subit déjà de nombreux tests de ma personne. :D. petit bémol, possibilité de le recharger que par port USB. Dommage qu'il n'y est pas d'adaptateur.

Good

Working good but low battery

Funciono súper bien aveces se trababa pero nada que no pudiera arreglarse … eso si la batería dura poco así qué hay que estar a las vivas por que en cuanto se baja empieza a fallar la conexión

Ein großartiger mobiler Router. Hat mir in Südkorea mit der entsprechenden Sim-Card zuverlässige Dienste geleistet. Die Verbindungen waren stabil, zuverlässig und schnell. Es konnten mehrere Geräte gleichzeitig genutzt werden, was super praktisch war. Die Akkulaufzeit betrug ca. 6h, was etwas knapp war über den Tag. Ich hatte mir angewöhnt das Gerät halt bei Nichtbenutzung auszuschalten. Angeschaltet war es innerhalb von einer Minute. So ist man locker einen ganzen Tag durch gekommen. Platziert hatte ich es im Rucksack, was keinerlei Probleme machte, da es kompakt und leicht ist. Im Betrieb wird das Gerät zwar spürbar und deutlich warm, jedoch habe ich keine Nachteile dadurch erfahren. Das allgemeine Handling war sehr einfach und mit der Anleitung sehr schnell eingerichtet. Preis-Leistung ist sehr gut, klare Empfehlung !
