    No you're not.

    Apologies. You are correct. It actually wavers between 3G & 4G. Sorry for the confusion.

    It's the bally ballyness of it that makes it all seem so bally bally.

    So.... It's a TP-Link AC 750 Wireless Dual Band 4g LTE Router. I positioned it on a window sill in a middle bedroom (I live in a bungalow), and, as I said, it works a treat. Let me know how you fare.

    Thanks a million for taking the time to do this - I'll let you know if I take the plunge.

    Anyone running a games console off the router? Saw one post on Amazon that they couldn’t connect their consoles to it. Is this a thing with them?

    Ive been running an Xbox for years off of a Huawei 593 and Eir connection no probs. Three works fine too but not as consistent or reliable but it does work fine. Open the correct ports after assigning the console a static ip, or put the console ip on the router dmz for best results.

    know this is an oldish thread, but has as anyone tried using an eir sim with this setup?
    3's coverage is brutal where I am but, with eir I can get good 4g coverage.

    Sure. Pop your Eir sim in a 4g unlocked router (or eir router) and it should be a ok
