ZTE U10S Pro Blue, 4G+LTE Mobile Wi-Fi 6, unlocked low-cost portable travel WiFi, connects 32 Devices, 3000mAh 10hr Battery life, roams on all world networks, no configuration required

Small and smart looking 110x65x18 mm light weight and pocket sized. What looks like the screen is simply a shiny black panel with 4 LED indicators down one side. Came with over 50% charge so was no delay in setting up. Micro sim fits easily in the covered slot on the base. There is a WPS button and an ON/OFF button on the base - both are activated by pushing for 5 seconds. With an activated sim in the router the turn on to internet connection takes only about 30 seconds. I dumped the DATA only SMARTY sim and used one I already own. The passwords for wifi and router access are on the label on the back - I used my PC to access the setup in USB mode - 192.168.0.1 and enter the router password - once into the admin page changed router password, wifi password and SSID. WIFI can be turned off if USB mode only is needed. In my front room at peak times I get around 8 Mb/s download over USB - with the router in an upstairs window and with the shiny black panel pointed at the cell tower I get between 20 and 35Mb/s download over the 2.4Ghz wifi.I don't know how long a battery charge lasts but is stated at 10 hours - time will tell.Only negative points so far are the shape - it is not so good for standing on its base and can't be stood on its base with USB cable attached - I 3D printed a stand in PETG that I found on thingiverse which acts as a stable stand with USB access and easy orientation towards a cell tower. (search ZTE)Not sure how many wifi devices can be attached to the router as I only use one PC with wifi.For the money this little USB modem router is very goodOne thing to be aware of - if using Windows 11 or 10 in USB mode the device loads software onto your PC - I found this to be a problem so restored my W11 PC and now only use the wifi to connect.In Linux Mint the device works in USB mode with no issues.

I needed a mobile hotspot that allowed multiple devices to connect at once in a hurry as my internet went off at 7am on Saturday morning and I was scheduled to work from home that evening and my son was on call for his Tech Support job. No way we could have worked without internet and as our ISP advised it was an infrastructure fault and would not be fixed for several days it was a moment of sheer panic (finally got our internet back Tuesday at 5pm).This little device certainly came in clutch and proved surprisingly powerful.We live in a two bedroom terraced house built in 1905 so has substantial walls and floors/ceilings. Set this up in my sons room and we had no issue connecting his laptop and desktop PC, my laptop and the husband's desktop. This allowed my husband to stream films whilst I worked, allowed me to take and make phone calls over VOIP and dial in to the office server and perform all my tasks, all whilst my son did whatever he was doing online whilst waiting for a work call.The connection to the devices was simple and strong with little to no drop out. We used the included SIM card and adding unlimited data was quick, easy and surprisingly cheap. Signal strength on the network for our area was good and easily coped with everything we were doing.Wish I had got one before now for when we go on holiday as hotel wifi can be notoriously patchy. Now we have this little device that is never going to be a problem again. Even better we are going to keep this charged with data and make sure the battery is charged then if there is a power cut we can still connect devices and get online quickly and easily (providing they have charge of course).Don't wait for the worst to happen to you (like it did to us) be prepared!

Had a little Wi-Fi internet dongle ages ago, 3g, eventually gave up with it as everything had moved on and I wasn't really using it. I have unlimited data on my mobile so why would I need one? Well I work in Cumbria and often my phone signal is non existent or very poor, I also work at a place with a fantastic EE mast that everyone uses so you can get a full 5 bar signal and no data or phone, my alternative was to visit 3 and see about a Wi-Fi dongle again, I now have a 120gb data sim for little money a month but the cost of the dongle was prohibitive. I thought this was worth a try, and it's well worth the price. Set up was easy, put card into slot, charge and turn on, getting into the setting also easy and everything worked. So I used it to help out with coverage of a no rules football game on Tuesday night, it worked. But it did have to be re-set at one point as it froze, and by the end of the night even with wireless strength turned down to maximise the battery it was almost done after 4.5 hours. all in all an excellent bit of kit for the price.
