Conclusion
It is a good model to buy if you are going to use the internet for wired network sharing in typical networking way. AirTel Home WiFi Huawei B310 LTE CPE Router is not fully good choice over AirTel Huawei E5573s-606 Hotspot as AirTel the former officially supports 4G only, you can not move around with it with the hope of 2G, 3G fallback. While the later has no RJ-45 port. Current networking standard is Cat 6 ethernet cables. Still it is half-router! Is it yet practical to consider for serious works? It is still Cat 4 and ethernet patch cable and hardware becoming difficult to find in workplace. We are not talking about compatibility but currently used stuffs for networking. These cat4, cat6 are related to types of twisted pair cable. If we need to buy another ADSL router for advanced works, then what wrong AirTel Huawei E5573s-606 Hotspot did or why AirTel not offering Huawei B310s-22? Absence of RJ-45 port on AirTel Huawei E5573s-606 is the difference? If that is true, then why AirTel not using Huawei’s other models of MiFi which has RJ-45 port?
Huawei is good but Indian ISPs serious are either joking or has no idea around networking.
