All you need to do to get it going is plug it in and turn it on to get it going. Therefore, there is no need to book a technician, and there is also no need for a landline, which could ultimately save you money if you don't need one for other purposes.

You can change settings (such as your SSID and password) by connecting the EE 4G Router to a computer via a USB connection or wifi; you can change settings (such as your device's SSID and password).

With the 100GB plan, you may enjoy download speeds of 30MBPS, or with the 300GB and unlimited plans, you can experience our fastest 4G, with average download rates of 40MBPS.

However, various factors, mostly your coverage, will affect your actual speeds. Expect to get nowhere near the highest speeds in most circumstances, according to EE, although that's still faster than many ordinary fibre broadband connections. Some locations average 31MBPS; some don't get close to those numbers.
