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.

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.

Fantastic for internet on the road! The only issue I had is most devices that you connect to is 2.4 GHZ just be sure and change that setting on this net gear device.. It’s very powerful and most devices have not have not upgraded there capabilities as of yet!

Really good Internet reception in remote areas. Had to get used to a few quirky things in its operation, but once learned it did really well. Always connected for the most part.

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.

A bit spendy but it is 5G fast. My last hit spot was only 3G and this one smokes it.

This hotspot is not unlocked! I have AT&T and purchased a sim card, just to be told by AT&T that it was not unlocked. I went to Best Buy and they said there was nothing that they could do. So if you have AT&T it WILL NOT WORK and is a complete waste of time!
