The front is covered by a transparent plastic sheet while the sides and back are made of matt black plastic.\u00a0On the front of the display and the underlying telecom logo, we can find the power button.\u00a0The display shows all sorts of information, about the network operator, the used data volume, online time or network technology. From the power and the menu button, user can do some (few) quick settings.\u00a0Below is the microUSB port for charging the battery or to connect to a computer.\u00a0If you remove the cover from the back, you can find the slot for the Micro SIM card and the slot for microSD memory cards.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Speedbox-LTE-Mini-II.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2539\" title=\"Speedbox LTE Mini II\" src=\"http:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Speedbox-LTE-Mini-II.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"310\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Speedbox-LTE-Mini-II.jpg 310w, https:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Speedbox-LTE-Mini-II-300x243.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 310px) 100vw, 310px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The battery is installed in the router and unfortunately can\u2019t be replaceable by the user.

It works on the frequency ranges of 850, 900, 1800, and 1900 MHz on GSM and the UMTS 850, 900, 1900 and 2100MHz.\u00a0So the router could use in many UMTS networks in North America. The maximum speed in the UMTS Network could reach 42.2 Mbit\/s in the downlink and 5.76 Mbit\/s in the uplink, if the DC-HSPA+ technology is enabled on the network.<\/p>\n<p>The reception quality of the Telekom Speedbox LTE mini II is very good both in the UMTS and the LTE network, often significantly better than that of many smartphones.\u00a0Even in areas with poor reception can be surfed very quickly over LTE on the Internet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The connection to the terminal device is either via a USB port or just using wireless connection. The Telekom Speedbox LTE mini II has a current wireless 802.11a\/b\/g\/n \/ac module installed, which is fast and optionally transmits on the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz.\u00a0Up to 10 devices can be connected via WiFi through Telekom Speedbox mini II LTE and the coverage of wireless network is about 10 to 15 meters.<br \/>\nThe operation of Telecom Speedbox LTE mini II is quite simple.\u00a0After inserting the SIM card, the device must be switched on to be connected (by pressing the power button for 2-3 seconds) with a computer, tablet or smartphone via Wi-Fi.\u00a0The corresponding WLAN password is displayed on the router, but can also be seen under the cover on the back. Of course, other settings such as the name and password of the wireless network can still be changed.\u00a0These settings can be done directly in the browser via the web interface; alternatively there is also an app for your smartphone (Android and iOS operating system).\u00a0Enter the address bar192.168.8.1 (the router&#8217;s IP) in the browser to enter the menu.<\/p>\n<p>The web interface is kept very simple and allows only the most important settings.\u00a0More specific things such as setting the router to a particular frequency band or a detailed diagnostic function are unfortunately missing.\u00a0Also information about key reception parameters, such as RSRQ or SINR is missing entirely.\u00a0There is, however, a special tool, which we will continue to introduce more below.\u00a0In the tab &#8220;Statistics&#8221; can be accessed information about data usage and time spent online.\u00a0It is also possible to store a data plan, such as the volume values from your own mobile calling.\u00a0Below you will find three selected sample screenshots of the user interface.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/speedbox-lte-mini-II-web-page.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2541\" title=\"speedbox lte mini II web page\" src=\"http:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/speedbox-lte-mini-II-web-page.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"588\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/speedbox-lte-mini-II-web-page.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/speedbox-lte-mini-II-web-page-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.4gltemall.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/speedbox-lte-mini-II-web-page-500x253.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: Very good mobile LTE Router<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Telekom Speedbox LTE mini II is a very good mobile LTE router.\u00a0In particular, the good speeds of up to 300 Mbit\/s and the excellent reception characteristics are convincing.\u00a0And the WLAN module is fast and future proof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Telekom Speedbox LTE mini II is the first mobile wireless router with integrated modem for LTE-Advanced category 6.
