MERCUSYS300Mbps Wireless N LTE 4G Router with Sim Slot Unlocked, Maximum Network Coverage, Supports Up to 32 Devices, Available WAN Connection Backup, Ideal for Vacation, Business meeting (MB112-4G)

I purchased this Mercusys MT110 4g dongle at the beginning of October as my existing one decided to expire without warning.First impressions, it's big! Approx 11cms wide,7cms high and 2.5cms deep, not really pocket friendly, unlike my last one which was half the size.The set-up was straight forward and involves downloading an app (QR code provided) next you enter the unique passcode, which is tiny and printed on the bottom of the unit. I ended up photographing it, then expanding the image in order to see it properly.After that everything was straightforward, and gives you the chance to rename the unit/network and more importantly set a pass code. Other features in the app you can check the speed and battery life, see how much data has been used along with add/remove or temporarily block other devices. Also update any firmware as it's released. There is an auto power off (timer) and you can adjust the range.The unit arrived fully charged, ready to go, so no waiting for it to charge up which from 10% to full takes approx 1hr. Using a usb lead to tether it to a laptop will keep it charging whilst you work.Given my rural location the speed was impressive around 30-50Mbps. Which is enough to hook-up my TV, Alexa, 3 wi-fi cameras, laptop, tablet and phone! Although the TV does buffer if I use my laptop at the same time, understandable given all the other devices I have tethered in the background but that's probably down to my location, wi-fi signal than the actual unit.Battery life seems accurate, approx 10hrs tethered to my phone or laptop, between 6-8hrs if I'm using my TV for streaming.Con's: No getting away from the size even though it only weights 120g. The charging port is in the middle of the SIM slot and the power button, several times I've accidentally ejected the SIM card or powered the unit off whilst trying to insert the the mini-A charging cable. It would be nice if the charging port was the more common "C". The exposed nature of the SIM slot could lead to dirt ingress. The 3 function lights on the front of the unit are also tiny and only really visible at night or in a dark situation.Overall impression... Despite its (over) size the MT110 is impressive, powerful enough to tether several devices at the same time and still have enough battery life. I would rate this unit a solid 8/10 however, the design of the charging port next to the SIM slot and power button let's it down.All that said, I would recomend this unit based on price/performance.

Easy to use, no problems at all. Its fast signal is strong I connected to multiple devices. Network doesnt drop at all. Highly recommend.

Nice looking router but it's feels absolutely cheap and ligh. It was clear and easy to set it up. Speeds can be better but it's cheap so don't expect high branded product performance.

Changing network provider proved more inconvenient than we thought, so no internet for 10 days until the road outside is dug up and fibre fixed! 😤 Needed WiFi for the home for smart TV's, mobile phones etc... bought this with a SMARTY SIM card unlimited date for £15 and bingo! TV connected, mobiles etc... netflix, amazon everything working 👍🏻 great little device!

A good quality dongle supplying WiFi on my canal boat

The device constantly disconnects from WiFi therefore making it useless. Every few minutes I have to turn WiFi off then back on. Same with the device. I called the number provided where they told me to write an email.... I wrote an email and got an automated email saying it will take up to 2 days to get a response but I can use the chat. So I used the chat where they told me they don't deal with this brand. So overall just a waste of time.

Not got a good range or strengh, but is better than no wifi at all

After a week with the Mercusys AX1800, it's clear this router is a huge leap from standard ISP routers. Streaming, gaming, and multitasking are smoother than ever, even with multiple devices connected. The coverage is impressive, reaching every corner of my home without dead zones. The setup was super easy. Highly recommend for a budget-friendly yet powerful upgrade.

El funcionamiento es correcto, uso tarjeta SIM con PIN y sin problema. La cobertura WiFi es aceptable y la cobertura móvil también, se encuentra en un sótano que tiene poca cobertura y la pilla sin problema.

Degelijke kwaliteit, signaal nog niet weggevallen, voldoende snelheid, beter als verwacht

Well built, nice looking and realiable.The interface is easy to use and the router is ready to go in a minute ... just enter the PIN for the sim Card and basically that's it ;-)

I have a storage unit that has power plugs and this has allowed me to connect a temperature monitor and controllable plugs to allow me to turn on fans when it gets too hot. The device works really well.As an FYI the device looked different from the pictures in the listing. After some searching the pictures in the listing are the version 1, the one received is version 2 and just slimmer in appearance.
