MERCUSYS MR27BE BE3600Mbps Dual Band WiFi 7 Router, 2x 2.5 Gbps Ports, 4K-QAM And MLO, WiFi Router with 4x High Gain Antennas for Maximized Coverage, 160 MHz, EasyMesh-Compatible

Great little 4G router it was super easy to set up and works really wellI bought this MERCUSYS 4G router as cancelled my sky for a temporary internet connection, and it’s been brilliant. Just popped in a SIM card and it was up and running in minutes! No setup hassle at all.The 4G speed is solid, even with a few devices connected, and the signal stays strong. I have not used the external antenna ports. The Ethernet port is handy, and I love that you can control everything through the app.Overall, it’s a great value, no-fuss router

I think this router is well worth the money. Personally I bought this to be a fail over for my fibre service as the company I'm with is a small company due to no openreach fibre as of yet. We have had a few outages and that means we have been offline multiple times and the worst was nearly 24hours. We also have lots of WiFi controlled smart devices that don't work without a connection so I have this router setup as a fail over if and when the fibre goes down and the plus side you can take it on holiday or in the car. I'm using the smarty social tariff at £12 a month which uses three network. I have a high end phone which also uses three and where I live signal and speeds are poor at best I get 30mbps on my phone. On the router I have seen spikes of 50mbps but again settles at 30ish unless early hours of the.morning. I have been testing the devices ability over a few days and been switching off our fibre connection so we are completely relying on the 4g. I did this over a few days but longest test was a Saturday where kids were home and watching tablets aswell as me having the TV on and using phones. Now this handles it quite happily and we have over 30 devices online. I could still access my cameras remotely, I experienced no buffering and I was very impressed. I feel like for a small household who doesn't require internet to work from home this would be superb. I have it located upstairs using the internal antennas sort of in the middle of the house and that seemed to be the best combination for a location to have power and access to the loft to get ethernet to main router but also signal and speeds. I can't rate this thing highly enough. I have also ordered a 5v usb to 12v adapter as that will be easier to.plug in at home but also easier to power in the car or from a power bank if we have a power outage. My only complaint is it doesn't have a battery which I could find a single one on the market that provided battery and ethernet. Not the end of the world as I have a jackery power station but just something to bare in mind. The only thing I have noticed is the WiFi strength isn't the greatest with my tablet which doesn't really affect me as my.main router does the distribution but this may just be my tablet being weird. All in all id recommend this, I would also recommend getting the usb supply atleast then you can keep the router power by a power bank or similar and move it round your home to find your best signal location like I did. I will add that I've now purchased a 4g sercomm router from three. They are highly rated and yes it gets good speeds but it is unstable. Sometimes it just won't respond and it struggles with getting a good signal. I wouldn't want to use it for video calls or online gaming. The mercusys on the other hand although slower it just work and never has an issue. The fact that this tiny little router in my opinion beats a very popular highly rated router is beyond Me. I'm in an area where signal isn't great and no 4g+. I feel for like a motorhome or something this would be the perfect router for the job.

Bought this to set up remote access to my home cameras and lights when I didn't have broadband. It was pretty straightforward to set up and use, and all my cameras and smart devices connected and worked without issues. The unit tries to automatically set up the network settings for the mobile broadband access, but for some reason my Vodafone and Lebara SIMs both needed a slight tweak to get them working. Otherwise, once set up, it has worked flawlessly since.

Really good little router. Bought to replace a BT SmartHub, which it does very well. Produces a strong, fast WiFi signal. Proved very easy to set-up.One word of warning, whilst it uses EasyMesh, it's sadly not Mesh compatible with the Mercursys Halo system, which would be the icing on the cake.

I moved to a location that requires a lot hassle to get full broadband installed. Coverage on most mobile networks were non existent or poor/slow, with the exception of Three in my area.Though even with Three, the latency and upload speed were terrible, but download speed was quite good.Had to hotspot using my phone, but it wasn't great having to keep charging it, it getting hot and leaving it in a good place for signal which meant I couldn't use it when using hotspot for my PC.That's when I thought about getting a 4G router, since it's a dedicated device.I did search around about them and saw quite a few people saying they wouldn't make much difference to speeds and latency.I still went with this one anyway, as I wanted to free up my phone from being a hotspot regardless.Glad I did.Having used it for a day so far, it's been far better and has actually improved stuff.I placed the router in a good spot in the house, so it gets full signal constantly up a window.Though download speed didn't change all that much, which was fast anyway.The upload speed increased by a large amount.I was getting 1-2 Mbps upload when using the SIM in the phone. Using the 4G Router it went to 7-10 MbpsLatency has also improved, which is great as I play some online games and MMOs.Using my phone as a hotspot, my latency in WoW would sometimes be around 60ms but would frequently spike to the 100-200ish range and fairly often go up into the 500+ range making it unplayable.Having it in the router now, and connecting my PC to it, my WoW latency is around 48ms and stayed around that for my whole 5hr play session that I tested it. Which is loads better and way more stable.So overall this was certainly a good buy, and great improvement over using my phone.Didn't even have any antenna attached. Though its good the option is there if I ever need it.
