Does exactly what it should.

Great addition to my main Eonon unit. It takes about 3 minutes to start, but when it does, it loads right away. I used a prepaid sim from T-Mobile and now I can play 720p videos. I used to use my phone's hotspot and the highest quality I was able to stream was 480p. ** This does not provide an access point. It is designed for a dedicated LTE connection for 1 device when connected to USB.

Pros
  • Which network standards are supported: LTE FDD WCDMA, 4G LTE FDD: 100 Mbit/s download speed, 50 Mbit/s upload speed. Also supports HSDPA: DL 42Mbps UL 5.76Mbps
Cons
  • No

Also I installed this on my laptop with Windows 11 It worked and worked fine with T-Mobile. The only problem I had was opening the plastic case to insert the SIM card, which required a small flat head screwdriver. A good device if you need mobile internet and don't want to use hotspot data.

Pros
  • Cheap and easy plug and play device You can connect this modem to any compatible computer 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 Download driver, Install app and done
Cons
  • Functionality

Works with T-Mobile (Google Fi)

I recently switched to Google Fi and wanted one of these for my work computer and it works with a data only SIM card. It requires a standard sized SIM card, so I had to use a nano card to standard SIM adapter. Speed was as good as my phone in the areas I tested it on.

Pros
  • Will a GSM USB modem work for me: An unlocked GSM internet modem will work on supported networks with a standard SIM card (SIM card NOT included). You will need to contact your service provider to install and get a SIM card
Cons
  • Speed

You must open the software and "connect " to use the device.

That's what I was hoping for Once once this is set up, you can simply plug it in and an internet connection will be provided. It's not like this. You plug in the flash drive, open the software, click connect, ignore the warning about using third-party data, and it works. I set it up with a GoogleFi data card. You need to set up APN h2g2.

Pros
  • What does GSM mean: Service providers that use SIM cards for services such as AT&T and T-Mobile and others that support the bands listed in #2 This doesn't work on Verizon or Sprint
Cons
  • No instructions

Also, I have this installed on my laptop with Windows 11. The only problem I had was opening the plastic case to insert the SIM card, which required a small flat head screwdriver. A good device if you need mobile internet and don't want to use hotspot data.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some issues

Works Computer and Accessories

One thing but when I bought it the advert said it was unlocked. Well it was, but it was still the previous owner on record. AT&T was about to charge me with theft. That's why it gets a star. I rule out that any information about the previous owner was deleted. I have to explain to AT&T every time I take him there. I get tired of it very quickly.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model
