Mine does 4G (LTE) too. Some surprisingly high throughput where the 4G signal
is good.

It can be connected via a USB cable as well setting up a two point IP network
over the USB cable.

It is a re-branded ZTE (Chinese) device marketed by Australia's largest
telco/ISP.

That Telco/ISP has the best coverage in less populated areas of Australia while
the smaller/cheaper companies only cover the larger towns/cities (on the
coastal strip).

I have recently purchased a one metre whip antenna for it that I hope to test
from a small atoll 50 nautical miles off the east coast over the holidays.

Won't stay there too long if we have no Internet access :)
