ZTE U30AIR 5G Mobile WiFi Hotspot, Portable Pocket Router with SIM Slot, Unlocked 5G MiFi, Dual-Band Wi-Fi, Travel & Caravan Internet, High-Speed Connectivity for Multiple Devices

An excellent bit of kit With the included 5g 3gb Data sim, from Three, it was hitting over 100mb DOWN, and around 20mb UP on the dual band wifi, it gets even faster when connected via usb c It took around 2 minutes from inserting the sim to getting internet, simply plug and play. If your lucky, you might see over 200mb down on this device, its certainly capable of it. DUAL band and dual MIMO means, whilst not a wifi 6 or 7 device, its a top end mimo device, with full app and browser control. It lacks sma connections, and could benefit from it, however, portability, and power draw considered, its 5g connection remains solid, those who might require more power will need to consider devices that cost 2x the price of this. Pro Small, portable, light, swappable batteries, instant sim to esim switching, MIMO WIFI, and full app and browser interfaces, solid construction, and plug and play, with NFC pairing for upto 10 devices. Con Lacks serious power for campers, no SMA inputs. BUY, you wont get a pro level 5g sim router for less.

It works very well and does what is says on the tin. I have used it to hold me over when I recently had a fibre cut that took 10 days to fix! My main internet was down to a crawl due to the 4G backup dongle providing very low performance with sky high latency. This little mobile 5G device provided Internet to several devices. In terms of reach of the WiFi (it provides 2.4 and 5GHz bands), you do need to be in relatively close proximity (approx. 5 to 10 meters) to get a good signal but that is to be expected from a device such as this. It is one of the more affordable 5G capable mobile hotspot devices out there but definitely recommended. I would recommend to ensure you have proper local firewall protection on the devices you use to connect to this, as it doesn’t have a built-in firewall and also use a VPN for further privacy protection.

ZTE U30AIR 5G Wi-Fi pocket Router – High-Speed 5G Connectivity, Dual-Band Wi-Fi, Seamless Streaming & Gaming, Easy Setup, Portable, Supports Multiple Devices I recently updated to this from a cheap 4G ZTE mifi which served me well for 2 years. I use it with an unlimited payg data sim to avoid the financial enslavement and ever worsening service that comes as standard with UK broadband contracts. Previous routers and mifis all handily had the password on the back. With this one it is so well hidden that Amazon customer services had to help me locate it. Finding the password involves taking the back off the mifi (every single time). The plastic clips holding the back on don't seem overly robust. This necessitated a diy approach where I made my own sticker. This avoided repeated dismantling during that period where I was finding yet another item that needed the new password to connect. My previous mifi could easily be propped up. Not so with this one. The addition of a phone holder overcame this nicely. This mifi has an energy saving feature where the lights indicating charge level and signal strength turn off to save battery. There is no override, apart from to manually press the on button to see the lights for a few seconds. Consequently it does often run out of charge as I have forgotten to check it. When charging the indicator lights do stay on. The charging light flashes and changes from red (deceased) to blue (so so) to white (yay! ready to go all day - maybe). The white status doesn't differentiate between only just turned white and fully charged. If it is only just on the white it will not last the stated time. Unfortunately when taken off charge the battery indicator will just show solid white so there is no way to ascertain if it is really fully charged. I am on the edge of a 5G area. It should only work outdoors. However, I am consistently getting 5G via this mifi indoors, in a concrete / metal building with other floors above, and several buildings and half a mile between me and the 5G mast. That seems quite impressive. This was the cheapest 5G mifi I could find from a reputable manufacturer. Despite the secrecy over the password and charge level display it's good value for money and performs very well. Recommended.

Worked for three days and then suddenly didn't allow any device to connect (including the NFC connect facility). The SIM worked fine in other devices so not the issue. We tried a reset, draining of the battery and start over, all setting changes and back to 'normal'. Nothing worked. When it work it was a nice bit of kit but it did not last. Perhaps a bad batch but the mixed suggests it happens more than not. Wished I skipped in the first place now and opted for a better router.

Excellent little mobile hub. I use mine at work and the car. If you use all day, battery will last about 8 hours. I leave mine plugged in so no issue with battery. Its 5g ready so I have no issue connecting to my phone. It's a great size, just like a mobile phone

Price does the trick. Battery with one device can last up to 10 hours. Less if you are using 3. Has NFC to connect your phone to wifi with one touch. I got 500 Mbps down with 100 Mbps up on vodafone and more on 3. Relatively easy to setup minus the application add that did not worked as easy but hey is working even without app. The only thing you need to keep in mind to disable the PIN of the sim before.

I dont usually do this but i felt like i was sold a dream the first day the speeds were absolutely amazing i was at 150+ mbps download and 60 mbps upload i was flying it was even better than my wifi however 48 hours later it overheated and i only had my phone on i could not get a stable connection for the life of me i could barely get past 11 mbps on neither upload or download gutted definitely not worth the price and initially i thought 100 for fast speeds was a bargain but no inconsistent maybe its ok for half the price but a let down honestly.

This is an excellent router providing super-fast 5G connection speeds. It is well-built, worked out of the box and the ZTE Apps are very useful/informative. Tip: Ask AI to check if the router will work in the country/region that you want to use it.
