GL-X750V2 (Spitz) T-Mobile/AT&T IoT Device Certified, 4G LTE VPN Router Without BLE Module, AC750 Dual-Band Wi-Fi, RV & Offshore Internet, OpenWrt, IoT Gateway, MicroSD Cardslot, North America only

I'm using this router as a failover connection for my home ISP, backing up my fiber line. In the event of an outage, my camera VLAN remains online, ensuring recordings continue uploading to the cloud for added security. The performance is solid, with speeds around 55 Mbps down and 11 Mbps up, which is sufficient for my needs.I'm utilizing one of the 4 data SIMs provided by Google Fi, offering up to 50GB of data, and it's working seamlessly with this router. The setup was straightforward—I left the network mode on "Router," inserted the SIM card, and followed the prompt for automatic setup, which was quick and easy. However, the device does take a while to reboot.This router runs OpenWRT, which is a great feature, though I don't personally use the interface. After updating the firmware, I connected the LAN port to the WAN2 port on my main Unifi gateway, and it’s been smooth sailing ever since.If you need faster speeds, their 5G model might be worth considering. However, for my failover needs, this 4G router performs perfectly. Since my Google Fi SIM card is a nano SIM and this device supports a micro SIM, it did take two attempts before placing the SIM card into the router correctly until it recognized my connection.

Works wonderful with T-Mobile Sim. Speed is faster than my traditional 5G Home Internet. Highly Recommend. Wish I could afford the 5G Model. Who knows?Maybe Gli-Net will let me sponsor them?

I put this Spitz outside 400’ from my house with large directional antennas and it’s been working well for over 2 years. I like the interface, and the ability to set a specific band has been very valuable. A good value for sure.

I would not advise buying this router if you plan to upgrade the unit's firmware. Amazon's stock is filled with a unit that holds firmware 3.104, and that unit cannot be upgraded. I bricked 2 units with the manufacturer's guidance, trying to upgrade the firmware. The issue with older firmware is that you will miss important connection and unit security updates. You will be stuck to the firmware forever, or you will find yourself entangled in a very frustrating upgrading process that will take days of your time, and in the end, you may end up with a bricked unit. I have to say that GL.INET does not focus on retaining configuration when upgrading their firmware. When they have a major upgrade, your router config usually is not ported into the firmware upgrade, and you have to redo all your router's configuration after a firmware upgrade. I learned that the hard way with GL.INET products. I suggest that when you configure your router, write down what you did or move on to another brand. As far as support, they have improved their response speed. However, many of their units in the market have older firmware, and if you get one of those, you will be in big, painful trouble.

I bought this after watching a YouTube video where the content maker called it his "new favorite router". After doing a bit of research and such, i decided to try it out. I driver all over the midwest and needed something that was compact but easy to use and i thought this filled that requirement quite nicely...then i actually tried to use it.Let me first say that none of my issues were direcly caused by this router, it was the carriers. First, I tried using Cricket wireless. I already had a 100gb data plan and I had been quiet happy with their service and their reliability in my travels... that's when I found out that only cricket phones and devices work on their network, they say it's because of a policy change forced upon them by AT&T, regardless, that was a no-go. So, I decided that if Cricket wouldn't work, AT&T should...wrong again! After going to my local AT&T wireless store and telling the girl working what I was doing and all I needed was a SIM card; I left with my new AT&T account. After inserting the SIM, I was only able to get 3G signals/speeds. It turns out, that the SIM was a 3g card, but the router did work...technically. I went to another AT&T sore and explained my problem, the nice lady gave me a brand new 5g SIM card and didn't even charge me a replacement fee. After replacing the SIM I then had NO signal and the IMEI was not not recognized. I called customer service and explained what was happening, the tech seemed to have a good understanding of what I was wanting to do, but she couldn't get the network to accept the IMEI from the router and allow service. Let me add that prior to all of this, I did check the router's IMEI online and it showed to be an LG 3 or something... it was a phone IMEI, AT&T identified it as not "eSIM compliant", but useable on their network. I was told by the tech that she was opening a case on my situation and it would hopefully be corrected within 2 or 3 weeks... that wasn't going to work for me.So, after a week of this, I cancelled everything and went to a T-mobile store to try again, third times a charm, right... Once again, I had a hard time explaining to their staff that all I needed was a SIM card for a phone and to sign up for their Magenta (phone and data) plan. After what seemed like way to long, and multiple assurances to them that I would not be holding them responsible if it didn't work, they set me up. Thirty minutes later, it was all working as intended.PROS:Very nice user interface to change settings and monitor functions. The app is okay, but not really necessary.All North American bands are included in the radioThere is SMS forwarding, so any messages from your carrier regarding accound information and such can be sent to, and read from your phone. You can also read and reply from the user interface if necessary.You can use an external antenna for better cell reception if you choose.CONST-mobile appears to be the only carrier which is truely plug-and-play, AT&T and Verizon both seem to have issues which can vary case-by-case. So do your homework before going forward, those who may be more tech savvy may not see this as a major issue, but for the novice user, it can cause many headaches.There is no automatic band adjusting for service, not an issue if you use at home or in an office, once you find the best band for that area, but for traveling users, expect to change it often.The app was relatively easy to use, but i find using a web address from my phone easier to do and all functions are available, you also cannot use the AT commands from the app... that can be very important if you needed to switch bands. Or check IMEI status, signal strength, etc.Bottom line, once this little guy is set up, it works like a charm. Be prepaired for the sale folks inside the stores to not understand what you are doing, they will try to set up a data only plan which may (or may not, depending on carrier) cause additional issues. For the price, its definitely a bargan and is easily comparable to more expensive options. 2.4ghz and 5ghz signals are there for older stuff which may not utilize 5ghz (such as GPS and older streaming devices). The user interface allows for network naming, hiding, password changing, etc. Just make sure your carrier plays well first.
