EE firmware is crippled.

Every other network is slowed down in my EE M2.

Same as all EE MiFi units regardless of manufacturer. The Alcatel EE120 MiFI firmware is the same, I can’t get more than 45Mbps on any EE firmware device on any network. Mobiles & non EE devices with Mimo 4x4 all get 100 megs here on o2 & Vodafone, Three 50-60Mbps. EE also hands me off to (slow) Band 20 800MHz (under <10Mbps on Mimo) & I need to lock bands to stay on high speed Band 7 2600MHz for 30Mbps.

All 4 networks have the same base station - a ex industrial chimney less than 200m away.

Honestly avoid EE hardware its all speeds capped/restricted at firmware and then base station transmitter, the network isn’t that busy 24/7 on Band 7 it hands me to Band 20.

Would be great if anyone on these support forums with coding experience could check the EE firmware & compare with N generic. Something is really holding back the device in EE firmware as well as just lesser Band support, it’s crippled beyond reason.

What a waste of £150 & hardware, it’s appalling what Britosh Telecom do to their firmware, advertising CAT X upto XXXMbps products with more interferEncE than a analogue transistor radio.

EE120 is a Alcatel CAT 12 600Mbps device, I can’t get over 50Mbps anywhere on it or M2 in any network in the city, all networks have Mimo 4x4 active.

Netgear has took a decision to allow EE to damage their mobile hotspot N Nighthawk brand. I won’t be buying another, infact I bought a Moto G50 5G for £145 for use solely as a Hotspot device, 100Mbps 4G on Mimo 4x4 no problem 200-300Mbps 5G on Voda/o2.

How many more people won’t buy Netgear devices again due to poor EE firmware performance. Many.
