Bad Signal for Networking Products

I bought this (along with a Peplink Pepwave Surf On-The-Go Wi-Fi Router SUS-AGN1) to replace my Access Point (Verizon MiFi 4620LE) which is unreliable product was working but not good enough for my needs. This device connects and allows me to work for a while, but it suffers from constant disconnects, which is the same problem I have with my access point (even with an external antenna attached). However, between my order and arrival my hotspot went out and I got a new hotspot (Verizon Jetpackโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Unbelievable Price

WORKS PERFECTLY! at Networking Products

THIS ADDED TO CRADLEPOINT MBR95 TO REPLACE NOVATEL 4620LE. NO MORE EXITS, SILENCE PROBLEMS OR ALL OTHER NOVATEL PROBLEMS.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Not satisfied with everything

Is working! No problem.

We use this with our Tieline iMix G3 remote mixer and can stream our live radio shows back into the studio from almost anywhere on the Verizon network. And for Northern Michigan, that's a feat! This little modem seems a bit fragile, but I'm told it's not as fragile as the newer version. So far we've been using it for about 9 months with no problems. I bought a spare SIM card just in case and got an extra SIM card from Verizon so we have a backup in case something goes wrong with the modem. I'mโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in class
Cons
  • Bad experience

Excellent value for money

Excellent value for money. Doesn't support any of the latest LTE bands that support UML295, but supports the rest of the LTE bands. Hard to beat for the price. Worked well with my Windows machines.

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • Weight

The hardware seems fine.

I had to "upgrade" my personal Alltel device. I never had a contract and didn't want one. Now for the same money per month and with my own hardware I am limited to 6GB per month instead of unlimited. 4G LTE is not available and will probably never be deployed until the next better technology is rolled out in urban areas. I've been at the mercy of VW since they bought out their only competitor in my area, Alltel. Now they say my Alltel device will stop working soon. This modem was beneficial. It

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • I'm worried

Works perfectly. on modems

My friends had this device to connect to the internet on their PC and it worked when they wanted to. We went to our local Verizon store to get a replacement. First, they couldn't test it in store. BUT they could sell us a new one for about $20 with a 2 year contract PLUS $40 ACTIVATION! What the hell. You couldn't even test it and wanted us to buy another one? PLUS all royalties and another 2 year contract? I told my friends that I would go to Revain and see if I could get it cheaper. Well itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unsure

UML290 solved my disconnect problem

I wanted to give 5 stars to this modem, UML290. It solved the intermittent dropouts I was getting and improved signal strength and signal/noise. Speed tests have greatly improved. I decided to buy a second one as a reputable cellular broadband reseller is charging almost 4x the amount for a REFURBISHED version. This modem appears to be new, but you don't get a SIM card with it. You must have your own valid/activated Verizon SIM card or contact Verizon to order a SIM card. The previous box wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities

Verizon 4G WiFi Card

Pros: Have been using this type of card for about a year. Great upgrade from 3G. Lost the first card. The replacement card is of the same quality and worth replacing. Cons: Came from Revain without a SIM card and won't work without one. Verizon provides SIM cards for free. Sometimes the Verizon network drops these messages. I was told it was a random issue with Verizon's 4G network. I recommend. 2 bought. That speaks volumes.

Pros
  • Positive Only
Cons
  • Infinitely Sluggish
