Fast Internet over LTE

 

The ZTE MF283 dominated all three mobile technologies currently used in Germany: GSM, UMTS and LTE. In the UMTS network the data accelerator DC-HSPA+ is supported, so depending on your plan and network utilization up to 42.2 Mbit/s in the downlink and 5.76 Mbit/s can be achieved in the uplink. It is fast when LTE can be used. Based on LTE Category 4, speeds of up to 150 MBit/s in the downlink and 50 Mbit/s in the uplink are possible.

 

 

 

The Internet connection is optionally provided via one of the four LAN ports on the back of the ZTE MF283 or wirelessly via WLAN. However, the LAN ports operate with a maximum of 100 Mbit/s, so that the full LTE speed can not be exploited. The Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n is in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, on other hand, speeds of up to 300 megabits per second are possible, according to ZTE, depending on how far you walk to the terminal from the router.

Integrated Phone function

 

On the back of the ZTE MF283, there are two RJ-11 ports for analog phones, and a DECT interface for connecting wireless phones. The telephone is not made directly on the SIM card, but via VoIP directly via the Internet connection. A corresponding VoIP tariff is of course a prerequisite for using the telephone function.

 

 

Other interfaces

In addition to the four LAN ports and two RJ-11 phone connectors, a USB port can be found on the back of the ZTE MF283. Normally, the USB port is storage devices or printers. On the back you will find two connections for an external antenna. This feature works in areas with weak signals as connection quality and speed can be optimized.

The LTE Stick is with a non-branded, white version with ZTE logo.

 

Technical characteristics

1 & 1 LTE-Stick is a solid, typical middle class model. It supports LTE category 3 hardware, so that the downstream hypothetically to 100 Mbit/s could be achieved. For Notebook Flats that was good enough, as the rates offer only up to 50 MBit anyway. The device can communicate at 800, 900, 1800 and 2600 MHz by 4G. Since 1 & 1 only runs on 1.8 GHz, the MF823 stick could also work with other network partners such as Vodafone, O2, E-Plus etc.. But you must unlocked the 1&1 LTE stick. If there is no LTE reception locally, the drive switches to 3G or 2G standards, so that nevertheless could be surfed. If the signal is not good, over 2 sockets (TS-9) also can connect an antenna for improved reception.

 

Operation and Installation

The installation is quite simple. Like many modern sticks, the 1 & 1 LTE stick also comes now without installing an extra software. The operation and configuration takes place, easily accessible via the browser. After first plugging it starts once a setup. This installs the necessary drivers, as well as an icon on the desktop “4G Hostless Modem” applies. After a short time, it further launches a browser window with the ZTE logo. Until this process is completed, it passed no more than 30 seconds.

 

 

 

Conclusion

A for the 1 & 1 LTE offers quite suitable and uncomplicated stick for a small price. Simply plug in and start surfing – so it should be a good partner to surf internet. But if you prefer the original factory model, you could check the ZTE MF823 directly from www.4gltemall.com .

Huawei Honor 7 4G LTE Dual SIM Smartphone Review

Last Friday Huawei has presented the latest smartphone for the European market in London: Huawei Honor 7. The equipment is with fingerprint sensor, metal enclosure, Full HD display and octa-core processor for a very good level. The unit also dual SIM capable and supports all relevant for LTE frequency ranges in Europe, making it once again apart from the competition. I could look at me the Honor 7 spot at the launch event and would like to describe to you my first experience with the device in this article.

Honor 7 in detail 
The Honor 7 is available in the colors white and gray. It will soon be available in the dealers,  but you will not get the phone from the network provider. The operating system is still quite current, the Android 5.0 3.1 surface comes together with Huawei EMUI used. In the first test, the software was smooth and quick, the games run smoothly on the honor 7 based on huawei HiSilicon Kirin 935 octa-core processor.

Honor 7 itself is with dimensions of 143.2 x 71.9 x 8.5 mm, this one has a pretty big 5.2-inch display with full HD resolution, which can display multimedia content well and ideal for photos and videos. The body material is made of metal, the screen is covered with Gorilla Glass. This affects the Honor 7 very valuable and can keep up the build quality better than much more expensive smartphones.


The Honor 7 provide the open version without SIM lock, and it is currently available on www.4gltemall.com . With a budget price, you can get a very well equipped smartphone that offers some features that are otherwise only known from the luxury class. One example is the integrated  sensor on the back, which can be used quickly and reliably to unlock the device. The cameras are very good for the price you wanted, they offer 20-megapixel (rear) and 8 Megapixel (Front cam). The internal memory is 16 gigabytes in size, an extension via microSD card is possible. The memory is 3 GB in size, multitasking is therefore likely to be without any problems and with many apps simultaneously.

Dual SIM with LTE
An absolute unique feature is the dual SIM function with LTE and simultaneous use of both SIM cards, which is not common in Europe. The first SIM card in GSM, UMTS and LTE network can be used during the second SIM card registered in the 2G network and at any time can be achieved. Many other devices you had to actively switch between the two SIM cards.

We has tested Huawei Honor 6 last year, this one should be the best seller in Huawei honor series smartphones. It performed well per the users’ feedback. Now the newer model honor 7 is available. We will see how Honor 7 will perform, but we are sure the honor 7 would be a new star!

Operation & Software

The operation of the Huawei E5770 is very simple. The SIM card must be plugged like an optional memory card under the removable rear panel. There you can find the activated WLAN password, and the address for the Web Interface and the password required for this. The SIM card is inserted together with the MicroSD card on the back. The operation and configuration via the web interface is quick and easily, both on desktop computers and on Tablet touchscreen. On the start screen, the consumed data volume and online time is displayed, on request you can have a look at detailed statistics or tariff limits deposit. It is also possible to receive and send SMS. Navigate to the tab “Settings”; you can set your machine accurately, about the wireless connection or the RJ45 Ethernet connection.

WLAN and Ethernet

The Huawei E5770 Mobile WiFi Pro offers three ways to access the Internet. First of course there’s the classic access via the mobile network so that up to 150 MBit/s accessible via LTE Cat4. Then you can also use the RJ45 Ethernet port as Internet access, which offers network connection at home, office or hotel. The third way to access the Internet is the so-called Wi-Fi Extender: the Huawei E5770 thus uses an existing wireless network to access internet.

 

All three types of access have worked well and without any problems in the test. Particularly interesting is the WiFi Extender function, because then it is also possible to connect multiple devices to a wireless network. As soon as the wireless network, the Huawei E5770 automatically switches from LTE to Wi-Fi access. Huawei E5770 could support up to 11 devices simultaneously. In LTE network, the Huawei E5770 Mobile WiFi Pro Router provides a good reception and many supported frequency ranges, so that it can also be used abroad in many countries. Huawei E5770 would support LTE Advanced Cat4 and the LTE modem Cat4 could achieve 140Mbit/s in the test. It’s a pity that it can’t support LTE CAT6, also disappointed that Huawei mobile WiFi Pro doesn’t have connections for an external antenna.

Battery and More

With the amazing 5,200 mAh strong battery, the Huawei E5770 Mobile WiFi may be used up to 20 hours per operating as a mobile LTE hotspot. The full-size USB port allows charging other devices such as smartphones or tablets. Through the output of 5V / 2A, the charging goes very quickly. The battery capacity is proudly advertised. But the battery can’t be removed. Finally, a little word to the display on the front of the Huawei E5770: this is definitely smaller than many other mobile wireless hotspots of Huawei, but it does the job properly and provides all important information such as data usage and battery status clearly. With a short press on the power button, you can see the wireless password in screen.

Conclusion: A perfect solution for Travel

The Huawei E5770 is a good mobile LTE router with two great unique features: it is the first device of its kind with RJ-45 LAN port and simultaneous support for LTE and it is one of the few devices, which simultaneously can also be used as a power bank for charging other devices. Overall, the router can convince definitely, besides the classic functions of the wireless Extender function should be emphasized. But there are three drawbacks: the missing of 5GHz WLAN and connections for an external antenna, and the feature of LTE Cat6 with 300 Mbit/s is not supported. Even though, the Huawei E5770 Mobile WiFi Pro is still a wonderful pocket WiFi router!

If you want the LTE cat6 mobile wifi, huawei E5786 may help you.
