TP-Link M7010 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi, Portable WiFi, Low Cost Unlocked LTE Cat4 Mobile WiFi Hotspot Dongle, 2000mAh Battery, High Global Compatibility, Easy App Management

Works really well. Gives a strong signal all around a small to medium size house.

Great product

Able to add multiply devices, signal strength is dependent on mobile signal and provider but no issues I have found with the right service provider for the area (I have all three major providers pay as go sims, I just quick swap sim if one or the other not working). Used for travelling in a camper around UK, not let me down yet!. Greta value for money. Easy to set up and use. Small enough to keep in your pocket or sit on your dashboard. Charged via USB.

I owned and used this item purchased from amazon for a couple of years, with a data-only SIM from Three. Set-up was easy - the back has to come off the unit so you can slide in the SIM card and fit the rechargeable battery but there's a notch on one corner allowing you to get a fingernail in.Switch on, and the box should start to try and sign on to your SIM card's network then report "connected" and the service obtained such as "4G". The device has a pre-set numeric password string which can be found by navigating the menu options. There are just two buttons on the device - one marked "home" and another on the top side, and a combination of the two allows you to cycle round each menu page and then make selections within each page where appropriate.One nice feature is that this box serves out a web page interface via your local IP network (use http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 as the web address in most cases). Here you can change the router access password and make a lot of configuration changes to the wireless network for security purposes, etc. The default user name and password are both "admin" (all lower case") and it would be advisable to change these as soon as you can, for security reasons. If you forget your user name or password and can't log in through the web page, there's a pin-hole "reset" button which can be pressed with the aid of an unfolded paperclip (with the unit switched on) so everything gets reset to defaults including the admin/admin user name and password.Looking at my network provider's website, my locale is marked with 4G outdoor service only, yet I was able to get 4G service indoors provided I positioned the unit carefully. The wi-fi signal was great, but I didn't try to connect to the box from outside the room I was using it in so I'm not sure it would fill a whole house but you never know.Battery life was a couple of hours when fully connected and working, but I nearly always used the unit with permanent USB power connected.One thing to note is that I sometimes got a "battery overheat" condition whilst running on external USB power, which was quite odd. The unit would literally report over-temperature on its screen, and switch off. I then had to wait several minutes before the unit would turn back on again. Feeling the back of the unit, the battery inside had indeed got hot. I'm sure the charging circuit should switch off when the battery is fully charged, but apparently not sometimes for me.The other thing to note is that the back plate that you remove to fit the battery and SIM card is quite fragile. In the two years I owned the unit, it fell off the shelf where I'd put it (remember I had to find just the right spot to achieve 4G connectivity in a fringe reception area). All for corners of the removable back ended up being chipped and broken, and on one occasion I broke more off one of the corners just trying to get the back off the unit, hence me mentioning the tiny cut-out on one corner which should ease removal for you. Just be careful getting the back off if you want to look after this item and are looking to re-sell it at a later date. Gently does it.Overall given the price and functionality (which was pretty much flawless) I recommend this item. I only stopped using it because I got a dual-SIM phone with my data SIM as the second SIM, so I could use hotspot tethering at home and also mobile data as conveniently as possible whilst I'm out and about, even if that's just providing 4G connectivity for my sat nav whilst driving, so I get live traffic updates.I can see the application for someone who doesn't want to be bothered with smart phone tethering but does want to use a wi-fi only tablet or computer at home. Very easy to set up and it just works without a hitch in my experience.

I'm sure this unit will suit most peoples needs, however, it is not compatible with Sky Mobile sims, contacted Sky as the unit just showed the sim as O2 PAYG. Yes Sky uses O2, but does not support this Myfi, no explanation given. Unfortunately had to return the item.

I really recommend this product. With smarty ulimted you realise how fast this 4g lite is.👍

Bought this just over a month ago and initially it worked fine up until a week or so when the Wi-Fi connection to the actual TP Link itself became intermittent and dropping out all of the time. Contacted customer support as per the Amazon guidance and unfortunately there seem to be some misunderstanding of what the issue was, the person dealing with the issue seem to be thinking that the device was losing the Internet connection! I repeatedly told him/her that the problem was with the device not being able to maintain its Wi-Fi connection to either iPhone, iPad or laptop for any sustained period of time. Was given a few troubleshooting tips i.e. firmware update, replicating the APN from another device (TP Link Deco) so that it wouldn't lose the Internet connection, once again I told them it's not the Internet connection it's the Wi-Fi connection to the device, whoever is dealing with this on the other side of the phone/email seems to have a problem understanding the difference between Wi-Fi and mobile Internet connectivity, which isn't particularly helpful. I have since sent another email, a small video attached showing the Wi-Fi dropping off on my iPad continuously and have requested either a replacement or my money back. Two weeks into this now and still problem is unresolved, won't be buying again or recommending to anyone, too much time wasted. Bottom line: unreliable, virtually no consistent wifi connectivity, support seems to not know the difference between a wifi connection to the device and the device’s connection to the internet via a mobile network, either that or they can’t understand English.
