Good but Restrictions
As other reviews have said you have to set it up for your network provider, other unlocked units do this automatically. It came with no instructions but the manual is online. The aerial on mine wouldn't even give a 3G signal indoors, other units easily provide 3G. You can't update the firmware because this is an Aussie unit and it won't show your account details usage, again as its linked to Telstra. If you can live without these restrictions its a good unit.

average 4G wireless wifi unit
well I have an Osprey 4g box as well which consistently had better up and download speeds.I cant give you a battery life rating as it does not charge easily at all, its sort of hit and miss which is disappointing.

scrap
firmware one of Austria providers, and impossible to use all features, when try to change some wifi settings, or even enable 5GHz some devices start constantly lost their connection.
