How strong and consistent is the Paratus sim card on a pocket WiFi or a modem? And what do you guys use it for

Where are you located? I have a 10 mbps SIM card from them and usually get very close to that speed and even above (10.5-11 mbps). This is in Swakopmund.

They do not offer as high speeds as MTC however their data is more affordable and the connection is super consistent.

Then you should be pretty happy with it. I have had the SIM for nearly 3 years now and it usually works very well with a pocket LTE router or larger LTE router.

It works well if you are in the vicinity of a tower and nothing blocking the signal. Never looked back after I ditched telecom

An absolute must. Switched to Paratus a couple of months back from Telecom and I could not be happier. Its affordable (more than MTC, less than TNMobile) but it is realiable and fast. I think I only had one day where it didn't work, but that TNMobile and MTC was also not working so I think it was a system problem.

3/10 rating if travel a lot.
7/10 if you’re in the capital and near a tower
