To those using this newest rocket hub will you post what download speeds, upload speeds are you getting and your overall thoughts on the device thanks.

I just did a speed test at Bandwidth Place   <http://www.bandwidthplace.com>

The results were: 22.88Mbps down, 7.96Mbps up. I would round it up to 23 down, 8 up for the sake of argument. Sometimes I get marginally better speeds and sometimes when the traffic is crowded I get a bit less, but I would count on fairly consistent speeds at this level. 

This is without an external antenna attached and using the supplied rabbit ears that come with the ZTE MF275R

Thank you.

Just a small update: I moved the rabbit ears so they extend outwards from the side rather than upwards from the top of the device and the change in speed is significant! This small modification gave me a speed increase to 34.08 Down and 13.61 Up. I find this very interesting!

Great to hear!

Line of sight alignment may help with signal as well.

why is LTE faster on my Iphone than the ZTE hub connected to the same tower ( same signal strength)

As the title says it all , I'm just wondering why my phone registers close to 20 megs on LTE but the hub can only squeak out roughly 5 max ( hub set to LTE only)  Any ideas?? 

Iphone 5 and ZTE ( latest) model.

@mark11

Which ZTE hub are you using?

Is the network mode set to automatic or manual?

How many devices are connected to the hub?

Please provide any other details you feel may be relevant.

Thanks! 🙂
