    • This is a Huawei E5830 Mifi Wireless Modem Router. It is basically a 3G HSDPA Wireless Router. Just insert your SIM into the modem and then switch it on to produce a wifi hotspot to which up to 5 of your wireless devices can connect to via wifi.
    • Originally supplied by 3 (as the 3 Mifi with the 3 logo on the front), this has been unlocked (ie Sim Free). I have tested it with the following networks - 3UK, TMobile UK, 3 Ireland, Virgin Mobile, Tesco Mobile, Meteor Ireland, O2 UK and Vodafone UK with complete success. The modem has also been used by my customers in Spain, Netherlands, France, Portugal, Hungary, Belgium, Malaysia, Singapore (and probably a few more countries I am not aware of).
    • It also has the latest Huawei firmware on it which provides for much easier setup and configuration via a web interface on http://192.168.1.1
    • Used condition with some cosmetic blemishes but fully functioning.
    • I have reset the unit to its default settings and then set the SSID to "Wireless". I have also turned off security so that you can connect to the modem router wirelessly easily the first time to configure it from your web browser. The default login is Admin (password is admin).
    • The unit can also be used as a usb memory device as it has a micro sd slot.
    • The Mifi comes with the following:
      • a battery
      • a USB cable
      • a wall charger (3 pin UK)
      • Instructions on setting up the mifi and how to create a new apn profile
    • I am also including a free Giffgaff SIM which gives you £5 credit on activation with a minimum top-up of £10 . You can also obtain pay as you go SIMs for free or at very low cost from most of the major networks.
    • If you need any help with setup/config, please let me know - I can give you a call and talk you through it.
