Okay, let me start by saying this router is BUILT like a tank. When I unboxed it, I actually laughed at how heavy-duty it felt - definitely not your average plastic home router. The IP67 rating gives me peace of mind leaving it outside through storms.
The setup was... interesting. The documentation might as well have been hieroglyphics - super generic and not helpful at all. But after some trial and error (and a YouTube video in Chinese that I barely understood), I got it working.
Performance-wise? Absolute game-changer! With my AT&T SIM card, download speeds doubled compared to my old setup. Upload speeds stayed about the same though, which was a bummer. Pro tip: use external antennas if you can - the four connectors on this thing are begging for them.
Customer service surprised me though! When I broke an antenna (oops), Mancy from support hooked me up with free replacements including shipping. That kind of service is rare these days.
Is it perfect? No. The DHCP settings are weirdly locked down, forcing me to add extra network gear to get around limitations. But for rugged outdoor 5G connectivity, this thing delivers where it counts.
