Users will be able to share a network connection with up to five devices simultaneously making it possible for customers to enjoy the performance benefits of 4G mobile broadband on their existing wifi-enabled gadgets.
Customers using the unit in 4G coverage areas (capital city CBDs, associated airports and more than 80 regional and metropolitan locations) can access typical download speeds ranging from 2Mbps to 40Mbps and typical upload speeds from 1Mbps to 10Mbps.

It supports wifi standard N connectivity for advanced wifi throughput and range. It includes an audio alert that lets owners know when devices connect and disconnect from the wifi network, while a web-based control portal allows for the adjustment of network security and wifi range settings from an internet browser.
