      I bought an Aircard 790 unlocked in Hong Kong and found the similar problems - sometimes it can't connect to the network which I have access right or, if connected, it easily drops and connect to another network which I have no access right.  The firmware should be upgraded to allow manual selection of network. Yet the last firmware version was released in late 2014 and no upgrade available since then!
