TP-Link TL-MR6400 4G LTE WiFi Router, SIM Card Slot, 4G Router, 4 LAN Ports, Up to 32 Devices, 2 Antennas, Plug&Play, Parental Controls, Home/Remote, QoS Priority, WAN Connection Backup

Was using a disappointing Orange France broadband for 40 euros a month. Bought this and a cheap data sim for 12 euros a month and it works far better. Better range so no need for an extender, and picks up a strong mobile signal. Top notch.

Very good unit but lacked a setting we particularly needed so they accepted it back with no problem so an A+++++

Many have left technical/usability reviews of this item, and that's excellent so I'll not repeat what's been said. I also try to look for reviewer's experiences of the whole process before making the leap, being familiar only with equipment I've used for many years. I didn't appreciate how good/economical the mobile data service has rapidly become. I'll try to hopefully pass some useful info on, and add to others experiences. I've been humming and hawing whether to get one of these routers for a few months now - the cost may have been a big gamble with no guarantees; however, the usual arrangement of putting up with a sluglike broadband service, poorly maintained lines/equipment, waiting days for engineers, slow speeds when the kids are on Netflix, Prime etc.. was wearing thin. Living rurally I'm lucky to get 4-5 Gbits. The last of three engineers to visit in four weeks, attempting to resolve the same incoming line issue, suggested I look at coming off landline broadband. I noted (speaking to numerous engineers - therein lies a story! - from BT..Sorry 'Open Reach'), that every time I floated the govt promise that everyone -100%- would have fibre (1 Gbit) by 2025 they collapsed on the floor laughing. I already suspected the cost of laying line for rural properties would be enormous, and therefore wasn't too surprised. The promise is recently downsized to 85%. That's clearly minus 15% rural areas. No shock there, and there's still loads of time to reassess further! There is the notion that some providers would love you to accept inflated promises thereby making you reluctant to jump ship because a fantastic service is really (honestly!) just coming over the horizon. Clearly that is not the case. So quickly googling I looked at coverage and type - 4g, 5g etc - for my area. My son is on O2, wife on Vodafone, me on Tesco, and using those phones I checked data reception across my home. Result 15 - 30 mbits (4G). Great! Decent reception confirmed - tick. Ordered the TP Link mobile router. Put in micro sim from my phone. ID (ssid) came up on my Fire so entered passkey (from rear of modem) and connected. Opened a browser and searched for 'speed checkers'. Average from 6 checkers came in at 19 Mbits download and 17 upload. Previous fixed line gave me 5Mbits on a good day and less than 1Mbit upload. I now have an unlimited data sim from O2 (comes as mini sim - no fuss, clicks in as normal). I already have homeplugs (6 x tp link PA211 from Amazon) and they work fine with this unit. No changes are needed. I also already have two wifi extenders - bog standard under £20 models circa 2018 (my house is over 20m by 7m x 2 floors). They happily link to the router just the same as with a home hub or other line router, and in practice they perform much better than with HH5. The home plugs ( + 'wired' connections) measure at 20-25 Mbits, wifi fluctuates from 20+ down to around 15Mbits. Coverage is now full; upstairs and downstairs. Now I know some with 40+ mbits will laugh at those figures but, when 5 mbits was the best I was getting, three times that speed as a MINIMUM is a real result. Like all routers I've ever had in the last two decades you can interface with it using a browser and entering http://192.168.1.1/, so set up is easy. This unit instantly recognised both my Sims. Set up is really just confirming info and "dotting the i's" as wifi was up and running before reaching the set up, as without it access isn't possible anyway if you're not 'wired'. The interface has monitioring and limitation facilities. My unit has detachable antennas. The monthly cost of our old landline package was nearly twice that of a £33 pound/p/m unlimited sim so I'm already ahead, the unit will be paid for in a few months. You can keep your basic email or pay a few quid for a premium email with BT if your worried about losing, or the kerfuffle of changing, your email when terminating your broadband. I suspect other providers will be similar. The loss of a landline, and all the marketing/nuisance calls that came with it, caused very little pain. Mobile minutes are now very cheap. In conclusion I've vastly improved my internet service, almost cut my costs in half and have no more concerns over the age, upkeep, condition or 'committment' of the previous equipment/provider. I'm loath to use the classic 'I wish I'd done it ages ago' but it applies. Mobile internet is a winner and the only real alternative for upgrading in poorly serviced areas so I really hope this unit continues to perform. Simple and easy to set up - Go for it!

Funciona muy bien

ممتاز بس جاني الكرتون متضرر كالعاده من امازون 😑، بس الراوتر نفسه ممتاز ويجي معه سلك ايثرنت، كنت استخدم ايفون 13 كا نقطه اتصال والبطاريه تضررت من ذا الشيء.جبت الجهاز هذا وفعلا حل المشكله ذي بأداء افضل

Doesn't connect to Vodafone or Etisalat. Tried all troubleshooting tricks I could find online and couldn't get it to work.

I was having poor nbn reception, so I are now using data from my mb, and saving $50 a month

sans surprise c'est une bonne formule pour une bonne réception
