Huawei E5573

Hi,

I've just received the above device and the speed is below 1mb download and 8mb upload. (Tested via Ookla on Iphone 8 plus and Moto G6). I've been to a local O2 who kindly switched the SIM, but it hasn't helped. Am I missing something about the config or use of this device as the control panel on the device says it has 22.89mb / 3.12mb. Any help before I speak to O2 directly would be appreciated.

@rjm67

It all depends on the quality of the signal coming in to the dongle and also if you are using a direct connection or WiFi.

The dongle is reporting 20mb 4G connection speed, but it's not translating into a usable speed. I've even checked the wifi connection speed from my Iphone to the device and that is 15-20mb. Probably need to speak to O2.
