Description

Mobile internet for every device, no cables

The M7000 takes a 3G or 4G LTE mobile data connection and turns it into a Wi-Fi network that ordinary devices can join. Support for 802.11b/g/n means it also works with older laptops and phones. The manufacturer lists a maximum speed of 150 + 50 Mbit/s; real-world speed depends on mobile coverage and network load. The internal antenna keeps the case smooth, so nothing snags in a bag.

Travellers and holidaymakers who want several devices on one mobile connection; owners of a summer house or a boat with no fixed line; a small team at a trade fair or a temporary site; and anyone who would rather not keep tethering from a phone. The light device fits in a jacket pocket and is ready in moments.
