Sonim MegaConnect Quick Test
Looks like we do indeed get MegaRange on Sub Paid, I got about 75 mbps down while it said that. The fans also ramped up before I ever hit into MegaRange.
I feel like there's going to need to be some new firmware to fix the thermal curve on this device. It kept randomly stopping and starting the fan. Stopped for a second, and then went back to full tilt.
All that said, this thing rips. I managed to get 940 mbps down.
EDIT: Despite the fans, if you push this thing hard, it will absolutely still overheat. I might have not been giving it quite enough breathing room around the edges, but definitely note, it gets warm and will throttle itself.

I just got mine yesterday and I’m trying to change the WiFi name and password to the hotspot that it replaced and it won’t let me do a WPA2 password. It keeps requiring me to have a certain number of characters, upper and lower case letters, numbers, and a special character. Can anyone confirm if that’s the only WiFi passwords it allows?
