Provides an option of wireless or wired connection.
We live in a rather underprivileged area as regards broadband. Despite being in London, we cannot yet get fibre broadband and BT "copper" broadband is limited to about 5mbps - and it's so unreliable, we are unable to reliably watch streaming films or sport.
So, I decided to try mobile broadband with this router. While we are surrounded by masts, only one is in direct line of sight but is fairly distant. So, after some experiments, I opted for a Poynting external 'directional' antenna. Having further experimented with a few provider SIMs, surprisingly, I found O2 to give by far the best service (I had assumed it would EE). Then, some fine tuning of the antenna was necessary to get the best signal and speeds.
I opted for a Tesco "SIM Only" unlimited data plan - being the most cost effective contract without hidden data limits (and it uses the O2 network).
This router itself is easy to setup and provides fast and consistent service. We consistently get 4G+ downloads of 70+ mbps. Indeed, in the evenings we get over 100mbps. Signal quality is 75%. That is excellent - 4G+ really works for us!
Another reason for getting this particular router is the capability of setting LTE bands manually. Given the number of masts in our area, there are unusual problems with reflected signals and, at certain times of the day, the router would automatically switch to another band. This not only slowed down downloads, it also interupted streaming viewing - particularly annoying during a football match.....
By manually setting the LTE bands (we use 40, 40), this problem was eliminated and we are rather chuffed.
With the 4x gigabit LAN ports, integration into our home network was easy. This allows access to our printers, home NAS, Blu-ray player, TVs and Humax YouView box. Connection to a DECO Mesh setup extends the router's fast 5GHz WiFi to everywhere in the house - including the all-important but distant kitchen!
As such, this particular router is ideal for our requirements and we are very pleased. It did take some time and thought to get the home environment set up correctly but, it was well worth it.
Goodbye BT, your high prices and poor service!
NOTE. If you require a 4G+ router that allows manual LTE band selection for aggregation, there aren't many available choices. This, IMHO, is the best at a reasonable price. However, beware, the V1 version of this router does NOT feature this functionality unless you get a special Beta version of the firmware from TP-Link support. So, opt for the V2 device - which is also a few pounds cheaper.
The V2 device also has the useful option for scheduled reboots. I set ours to reboot at 4am every other night. That can help in keeping things running smoothly.
UPDATE November 2023
I have now purchased the newer MR500 V1 version of this router for my daughter's house - again coupled with a Poynting external antenna. This router has now run 3 months without any issues or need of a reset. We are both chuffed!

However, considering its price tag, I've noticed that similar products in the market offer similar features at a slightly lower cost. While the Archer MR400 has performed admirably, the price might be a tad higher when compared to its counterparts.
Nonetheless, the router's seamless operation, easy setup, and dependable LTE functionality make it a worthy investment, especially for those in areas without fiber connections. If the budget allows, this router is a solid choice for reliable mobile Wi-Fi, despite being a bit pricier compared to competitive alternatives."
Popped the sim into this class bit of kit and works like a charm. Better signal and faster speeds. Dual bandwidth helps connect all devices in our home without issue. Have been able to connect PS5 wirelessly with no fault (Parental permissions had to be changed with provider beforehand). It would not work with the provided device from EE. I will update if issues occur when connecting other systems e.g. Xbox, Switch. We have medium 5G signal around the house and high to moderately high 4g everywhere. Have only tested the device in one area and reach and stability has been good in a three storey terraced house. If you need a 4G router. This is the one! I researched other models such as the Archer MR500 and highly recommend the MR600 V3 over the latter. Speed test provided is from connect upstairs with router downstairs. Have had max download speeds of 150Mbps so far.

The good: When you have found the position, the signal is very stable.
Does not overheat
Starts up quickly, easy to use.
The bad: Plug in with mains plug no USB. very short lead. (we have to keep it outside the boat and have to cover it over in the rain)
There is no stand so it just lies on its back and then the ariels don't stay in place, they kind of flop about.
