Review: This is the bee's knee! - If you need to set up an LTE network or want to cut the cable, this is the modem you want. After getting sick of paying $140 a month for average internet and a bunch of useless cable channels, I decided to look for an alternative. No point in getting just internet from the cable companies. They are awake to this and will charge you a fortune for internet that is not bundled with cable and/or phone. But think about this, 5G is just around the corner and when it is rolled out, cable companies will go the way of Blockbuster and one-hour photo printing. You might as well get ready now. Well, it worked so well for me that I bought other units for my workplace. My team is located in a building where we are not able to install a physical network or internet access. I wanted to set up a reliable network to serve 7-8 people. I already had semi-commercial router and was looking for a way to be able to share internet access as well. Before buying this I tried a couple of cheaper lte wifi routers that do the same thing. Hands down, the netgear is the best of them all. First, it is so easy to install. Insert a sim activated in another data device like an Ipad, connect an RJ45 from the modem to the router WAN port, and all done!. To be honest, I never thought such a solid and reliable device was available. The pros include: * very strong antenna means best possible reception and speed. * an option to connect an external antenna through TS9 connectors which is great for maximizing download speed. * a POE version is available which reduces wire clutter. * can be used as an aircard for a single device or to feed a larger network. * about as easy to connect as anything I've ever bought. * even with marginal reception and slow speeds, it is sufficient to stream services like Netflix or Sling with minimal lag the cons * download speed is very dependent on signal strength. If your signal is poor, you will need an external antenna or booster which is easy to add. * Many unlimited plans are actually limited to 22gb a month after which the provider throttles your speed to a crawl, and it is easy to burn through 100gb a month. That might be a dealbreaker for some though it is not a flaw in the modem itself. You can buy a legacy plan through online auction sites which only slow network speed a bit and only when there is congestion. AT&T have one that works very well. * It seems a lot of money for a little box and there are cheaper options out there. But, it is very well thought out and well designed. definitely a case for spending a bit more for a superior item. Good work Netgear! This is a winner and I'll be buying a few more for our other offices and for my home.
Review: How to make it work using Total Wireless (Verizon Subsidiary) - First, It works. Great feedback from other customers helped along the way, however, if you are using Total Wireless, reseller of Verizon service, the directions are a bit different. But, it works. Double check your LTE channels. My local area uses Channel 5, so, I'm good. Be sure to check your area first. 1. If you have a phone that is compatible with Total Wireless (Check IMEI for compatibility) and is not currently active on the network then all you need to do is buy the CDMA kit that just comes with a SIM card. Note: You may need a SIM NANO to MICRO converter depending on your phone. This hotspot takes sim card MICRO size, most phones are NANO. Total Wireless will not activate a new SIM card using a device that is currently active on their network. 2. If you don't have a phone already, go purchase the cheapest phone Total Wireless has ($35) from most retailers and it comes with it's own SIM CARD. Note: You will need a Nano to Micro converter to use with this device. TOTAL WIRELESS WILL NOT ACTIVATE A SIM CARD WITHOUT AN IMEI PERIOD. NOT MATTER WHAT, NO MATTER WHEN. THEY REQUIRE ABSOLUTELY AN IMEI NUMBER COMPATIBLE WITH THEIR SYSTEMS. At this point, both options will be same, you will have a phone and a SIM card ready to activate. 3. Contact Total Wireless and up your plan by 1 device. I had a 2 device plan, and upgraded to 3 device. Treat the hotspot as a phone. Don't mention hotspot, don't mention Netgear, don't mention anything except just activating your new phone. You will get a new number, it's not needed really, but, don't worry, it's a don't care later on. 4. Go to Total Wireless, log into your account, and select "Add new device". Follow the instructions (either Activate your phone or a Total Wireless phone depending which path you are on). When the instructions tell you, Insert your SIM into your PHONE (Total Wireless phones come with sim card pre-installed) and follow the instructions to activate your phone on the network, verify it works, call your main number. It should now be added as the 3rd device on your plan. 5. Turn off the phone and transfer the SIM card from the phone into the hotspot. You will probably need the NANO to MICRO converter at this point. This was confusing at first. On the hotspot, open the door and there's the SIM cover, slide it to the left until you hear the click, it only slides like 1/8 of an inch, it makes a clicking sound. Lift up on cover and one side should lift up, revealing the sim card slot underneath. Put in the sim card, push the cover back down, slide the cover to the right until it clicks. Again, very short distance. 6. Connect the hotspot to a computer via the network cable. Change the IP address on your computer to 192.168.5.10, the hotspot runs on 192.168.5.1. Power on the hotspot. Wait for it to boot. It WILL NOT connect to the LTE network yet, we are going to change this. 7. Connect to the web interface by typing in 192.168.5.1 in a browser, password is printed on label on bottom of hotspot. I changed this right away. 8. Go to APN settings, switch from automatic to manual. Select Verizon. Go to your normal phone and check the APN name, mine was TRACFONE.VZWENTP . In the hotspot, click on the EDIT button for the APN and change the APN to the correct one, for me, it was TRACFONE.VZWENTP. Save and reboot the hotspot. 9. Upon reboot, it will connect right up. It's not a wireless hotspot, so, you either need to connect a LAN cable to the device you want to have internet access or connect it to an external router which has WIFI. This device is not a wireless router. Why do this, well, several reasons: -Verizon wants $70 per line, so 3 lines is $210 off the bat each month. Ouch. - You can add a tablet for $10, however this requires a current Verizon account. If you have two phones your total is $150/month. Ouch -You can add a hotspot service but Verizon and Total Wireless limits it to 5 GB of data for $50/month and $10 for each Gig you use over 5gig. Yeah, not an option. Serious Ouch. -Total wireless allows you to add a device for $20 more a month and get shared 60GB of data. So, for $85/month you get 3 lines of service, 4G hotspot access, cheapest solution out there all running on a very reliable and fast 4G network. -In my area, all other providers stink, I tried them all, Verizon network by far is the best. Total Wireless reduces speeds after 60GB of 4G data is uses, downgrades to 3G. For me, I needed a backup for work when my current provider goes down, which is a daily occurrence, and I needed to find a quick solution but didn't want to pay out the nose for one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with a t-mobile sim card?**
A: I know this is a old question but putting my 2 cents in. I currently use this as my home internet with T-Mobile. I have the T-Mobile ONE Plus International Plan for a Tablet which does allow unlimited data, but I do have a monthly cap of 50GB so when I go over that, I do get reduced to a slower speed. It is usable when that happens, but does make streaming and things harder. Otherwise it works great.

**Q: Is this device "unlocked" for use on other compatible networks?**
A: I use this exact modem for rural customers for internet service and AT&T works fine on this modem using a business plan and they have 8MB, 12MB, and 50MB speeds with Data caps at 50GB, 75GB, and 125GB before slowing down to 3G which is still good speed for usage.  Verizon however does not work but accepts the SIM card and acts like it does just cannot  browse.  Verizon will tell you the service is not supported on this device.

**Q: Confusion: How to use Wan port? I could understand wan port on router, but in modem.... What dose that means? What kind of advantage would it make?**
A: Wide Area Network (WAN) also known as the Internet, connected with addresses that are publicly accessible. Local Area Network (LAN) are a private group of computers and devices that are not publicly accessible. Class C Private IP range 192.168.0.0 : Class B 172.16.0.0 : Class A 10.0.0.0. The WAN port on the router is Internet in and the switch ports and built in access point distribute it to client or end point devices.

**Q: what size Sim card does this device uses?**
A: It's a micro-sim. But you can easily place a nano sim into the slot, just line it up on the side opposite of the notch, then latch the cover. There should be plenty of tension to keep it in place between the pins and the latch. Mine is working just fine this way until I can get an adapter.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ My prayer was answered
*by Z***A on April 8, 2017*

I've been hunting for an L700 compatible 4G LTE modem for months. T-Mobile's L700 is the only band we can receive where we live. Our only internet option is through an entrepreneur who sells 5 mbps (which we rarely achieved) Wi-Fi for $82/mo. I previously bought a Huawei B890-66 LTE modem which is alleged to be L700 compatible but speed was dismal and it would stop recognizing the SIM randomly a dozen times a day requiring resets. I returned it to the seller. Along comes this and it works, plug 'n play! I inserted a T-Mobile SIM I was using in a BLU phone and within seconds of plugging it in had a working modem. Side by side with my iPhone 7 shows it about 10-15% slower. I ordered the Netgear external antenna and will update this review accordingly. I've only had it a day and cannot attest to reliability. I don't know why they seem to promote this as an AT&T device, but to those who claim this is not T-Mobile compatible, you are wrong. We have the 'One Plus' T-Mobile plan and routinely exceed the 30GB ‘unlimited’ threshold, but so far have not seen any evidence of throttling because, T-Mobile tells us, we are in an uncongested area. Update 4/24/2017 I am downgrading my review and recommendation because I find this modem to be consistently slower than my iPhone 7 Hotspot and troubling information from Netgear Support. Side-by-side, my iPhone can be anywhere from 20-200% faster. According to Netgear's spec sheet this modem is compatible with band 12. As far as I know this is the only band which gives us adequate signal and the band my iPhone shows I am using. Netgear support states this modem is NOT band 12 compatible and suggested the superiority of the iPhone 7 is due to band 7. The modem is fast enough to be satisfying and offers other conveniences but I would like to get to the bottom of this. If you go to the Netgear support section for this product you can download a spec sheet and comprehensive user guide. Update 5/1/2017 I received a new 4G LTE modem today from the 4GAS antenna shop. They offer a privately branded model, the C100-T. So far, I have not been able to determine the manufacturer. They previously offered a Huawei model. It is optimized for T-Mobile. Like the Netgear, it was plug and play. At $199 + shipping it costs significantly more than the Netgear. The primary differences are the SIM is inserted from the outside of the case making SIM changes easier, more indicator lights, SME antenna connectors, and more sophisticated web interface. The external SIM is a bit fusser than the Netgear's internal locking approach. First speed test showed about 18 Mbps. I am hesitant to compare it to the Netgear speed because our signal strength seems to vary significantly, test to test. Nevertheless, this would put it on the high end of our typical range. The 4GAS interface has one very handy feature... it reads out signal strength in db, making it much easier, assuming it is accurate, to fine tune location, antenna's etc. It showed a 3-6 db difference between the included 2 external antennas and my external YAGI antenna but only 3 out of 4 bars while the Netgear shows 5 out of 5. 4GAS offers a more sophisticated antenna. I have it on order and will update this review after I test it.
