Durable workhorse of 5G
Bought unlocked version for use on Private 5G and 4G network and also when on public network. Works great out of the box as WiFi hotspot, USB tether and Ethernet bridge. Using on state of the art 5G standalone system for n71 (600MHz) and n48 (CBRS 3.5GHz) for private network for industrial use cases. Rugged for the workforce. We have used to enable some mobile robotic platforms as well. External antenna option fantastic for difficult or low signal areas. Have connection (bars) in places others do not. Sure can get a consumer grade for less, but this a durable travel companion that supports the latest 5G technologies.

Most stable highest performing hotspot.
I have recently purchased five of the best, highest rated hotspots currently available for GSM / T-Mobile use. Out of all the hotspots this 5G quad antenna (non pro) version seems to perform best for me in my area. Unfortunately, the pro version (newest) of this Netgear hotspot seems to suffer from overheating. I really don't need the mmWave feature or 6E WiFi... I prefer stability over bleeding edge performance with this type of product. Price is very high but it's a good hotspot. Highly recommended.

Works perfect it self and with my Antenna BOOSTER
Best product and worth each penny, you have option to get a cheap one for $100 or a Netgear for $ 550. it is like Ford fiesta vs Cadillac escalade. Expect the outcome based on your paid value.
