Great hardware, dodgy firmware

Reviewed in Australia on 31 December 2020

Very solid hardware. I’m using it to access poor 4G internet in a remote location. It works really well, especially when there is little competition for the cell tower. It covers Australia’s remote B28 700MHz signal, and hardware that does this is hard to find.

The firmware is... challenging. Many problems with passwords and logins and updating passwords. Very frustrating and perhaps too difficult for inexperienced users. But now it’s up and running, it’s pretty great.

Wouldn't recognise a SIM after a week

Reviewed in Australia on 26 July 2020

The router worked for about a week with a SIM card, but suddenly stopped recognising the SIM. I confirmed the SIM was working OK in other devices and tried other working LTE SIMs in the router, but it still wouldn't recognise it. I tried every type of reset I could think of, but it still wouldn't work. Searching the web it seems that others have the same problem with the TP-Link Routers not recognising SIMs.
Fortunately, Amazon have a good returns system but nevertheless, it would be better if the device just worked like it's supposed to.

4G+ made a difference

Reviewed in Australia on 18 December 2020

I upgraded from the MR6400 and saw an immediate difference in performance with the MR600.
Also, the SIM card holder is a better design in this model.
Not the cheapest but I’ve had no issues with TPLink products in the past so I was happy to pay the asking price.

Works well, easy to configure.

Unlike the advertised configuration (4G with potential WAN ethernet backup), I was looking for a modem/router to use for our NBN (HFC over ethernet) with the 4G through the SIM as backup. This router fits the bill perfectly, easily set up and it provides fast WiFi and gigabit LAN ethernet. I have no problem recommending this router.

Great features.

This was an upgrade from an Huawei E5573 mobile wifi as I needed the ability to switch the wifi off because of medical condition. The TP-Link only shows 1 bar in the same position as the Hauwei which had 3 bars. This is not a real problem as I can remove the antenna and use external antenna.
