This unit performs as advertized. 3gstore.com gives great email support, a rare plus. The reason I did not give it 5 stars is that its load balancing is weak. There is not a way to route traffic based upon URL or domain. For example, I would have liked to route all twitter, facebook, news sites and other time wasters, as well as the background task stuff like windowsupdate.microsoft.com and AV updates to the slow, but unlimited ISDN line and the vendor sites, customer sites and the like (where work gets done) to the faster, but more costly 3g/4g. This would be a great feature. Another downside is that, while there is SSH access, there is NO documentation for it that I could find. Other than that, setup was straightforward. CAUTION: To do a factory reset properly, power off, push the reset, power back on and then wait for lights to blink on-off-on before releasing reset.
