I live in a very rural part of Lehigh Acres and generally get little connection in the area. I get around -104 to -108 dbm on my phone in the house so signal quality isnt the best but I speedtest this on my laptop and got 31mbs DL and like 4mbs upload on the AT&T network with 2-3 bar reception. Works playing netflix without a hitch even at 1 bar reception. Note that if you are buying this for the reason I did though, which is to game online on Xbox One, then you might be a bit disappointed. Currently I havn't found a way to get around the problem of having both a Strict NAT and double NAT concurrently. I would recommend that if you buy this product for gaming on the go or need this to have internet that you research how to fix this issue.

I purchased this bad boy to connect my dash cam (BlackVue DR900S 2CH) over the cloud when I’m in parking mode. I am able to have live view of my vehicle’s front and rear cameras plus auto event upload if my vehicle is struck while parked. My cellular service provider on this device is TMobile (2gigs $10, must have voice plan plus auto pay for this pricing). Becareful Watching video over the cloud. This will use up your data quickly.

I upgraded from a Velocity hotspot to the Netgear Nighthawk. I purchased it outright and was not sorry one bit. Max download speed with Velocity was 45 mbps. With this hotspot, in the same location, same time of day...max download speed was 128mbps. This was on a congested tower. I’ve also taken this to where the Velocity has little to no service and I’ve noticed much higher service with no dead spots. Without a doubt, everyone should have one of these. It has all of AT&T’s bands and is ahead of it’s time.

Easy setup on my unlimited plan, purchased full price. Get consistent LTE speeds and battery is impressive.

Battery lasts long and great connectivity. Able to drop from 4G to lower Gen and up again..great device
