Review: Works well with Smarty SIM - So far, very happy with this product. I got the ZTE MF79N, the dongle that allows you to connect up to 10 devices to what looks like a large USB stick. The product can be plugged into a computer OR into a USB charger straight into the wall. I got it to use with the Smarty unlimited SIM and it works very well. The dongle itself does come with a free Smarty SIM which was not clarified in the 'what is included' part. The setup can also be done with a macbook which wasn't clear from the instructions so it works for both PCs and Macbooks. The speed is fast enough to stream HD movies on my laptop and fulfils all of my data needs (I use cloud-based graphics software). HOWEVER, some advice: The Smarty SIM needs to get a strong enough signal in order to work well and it uses EE's network. If you're going to be fairly stationary and especially if you already have an EE phone SIM, you can check the reception of where you're planning to use the dongle on your phone. If you have 2 bars and above, you will have sufficient reception when you use the dongle as all it does is it amplifies that and creates a hotspot for your devices to connect to. Otherwise, I can guarantee that you just won't get reception. The same applies on if you have a different company's SIM and use the same one for your phone. About the range: I'm using the SIM in one room and I get full bars, but once I leave the room and close the door, my laptop and phone can't pick up on the dongle much if at all. This one is very much meant to be used in the room where you are, especially if the walls are insulated. I have yet to take it out on the proverbial road as I've been using it in some temporary accommodation where I don't want to get a proper router. I would say this is good if you're someone single living alone or people travelling in a group. Just don't expect it to work for a big house or even a flat with many different rooms... the signal just won't be strong enough.
Review: Great buy :-) - Been looking for a dongle for a while now and this by far has been the best. Finally I’m able to connect to a reliable WiFi source and work from home without the connection being lost. I even bought a dongle from curry’s which was returned for to not working. So anyone wanting a reliable dongle is strongly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐ You can't get native IPv6 connectivity over this device.
*by B***N on 6 March 2026*

Not 100% happy. It's an RNDIS device which does not offer any bearer IP to the host, and is locked to ZTE's proprietary forwarding plane; there is no e.g. PPPoE over USB CDC ACM for you to use. So you can't get native IPv6 connectivity over this device, at all, and IPv4 will require you to double NAT. It's only good as an emergency backup for that reason.
