Great 4G Dongle

• Faster than 3G dongles
• Light weight
• Control via web page
• NO 4G+

Very suitable 4G dongle via USB 2.0 that boots quickly. I would have liked to see that this model also had 4G + (something that coolblue does proclaim). Unfortunately, this dongle does not support 4G+ (Maximum 150Mbps CAT 4). Furthermore, it does not seem possible to select another APN (Access Point Name) in Profiles, if you do not want a (limited) Firewall or NAT.

Before use, install the program (drivers) that is on the dongle via the Flash section. After this, the dongle is added as a network. You can adjust very little via the web page and the menu consists of a kind of swipe view that looks mainly fancy and offers little functional value.
