Description

Description

The MC888 Ultra by ZTE is a mobile router, a device to which other devices (e.g., computer, mobile phone, television) connect wirelessly, and it distributes internet access to them. It receives internet access through the built-in modem and uses the mobile network by installing a SIM card. The SIM card must have an active connection with a data package.

It connects to the 5G network, which offers significantly higher speeds than 4G. For the device to operate at this speed, there must be corresponding coverage from the mobile network in the area where we are located.
It is of Wi‑Fi 6 generation, the most modern Wi-Fi standard that offers speeds up to 40% higher than Wi-Fi 5. It coordinates communication with connected devices to consume less battery and works better in environments with many Wi-Fi devices. Ideal for homes with many smart devices. It broadcasts a signal on two frequencies, 2.4 & 5GHz. It offers higher speeds compared to single band and connection of more devices. The 2.4GHz frequency is the most widespread and has a long range. The 5GHz provides higher speed than 2.4GHz but is more sensitive to obstacles (e.g., walls) that reduce its range. This difference and its more limited use help it have fewer interferences from other networks.

Type
4G/5G Router

Type

The devices we encounter are standalone routers, routers with built-in modems, and mobile routers.

A router requires a separate modem and distributes the connection to multiple devices via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, but cannot connect directly to the internet. A modem/router combines a modem and router in one device, connects directly to the internet provider, and distributes the connection to the local network. A mobile router, on the other hand, uses a SIM card and mobile data to create a portable Wi-Fi hotspot, ideal for use outside the home or in areas without a fixed connection.

4G/5G Router

Mobile Router with built-in modem.

A router is a device that connects other devices (e.g. computer, mobile phone, TV) either wirelessly or with a cable, and shares internet access with them.

The internet access is received through the modem which is built-in to these devices and uses the mobile network with a SIM card installed.


A SIM card with an active data plan is required.
Mobile Network
5G

Mobile Network

The fastest generation of mobile network to which a mobile router can connect.

Mobile routers have a SIM card slot for wireless internet access through 3G/4G & 5G mobile networks.

5G offers significantly higher speeds than 4G, which in turn is faster than 3G. For the device to function at this speed, there must be corresponding coverage from the mobile network in the area where we are located.
Maximum Wireless Speed
5400 Mbps

Maximum Wireless Speed

Theoretical maximum speed with a wirelessly connected device primarily used for marketing purposes. The speed of each connected device depends on factors such as distance, obstacles, the number of other devices connected, the number of other networks in the same area, etc.
Maximum LAN Speed
100 Mbps, 1000 Mbps

Maximum LAN Speed

The maximum speed that the modem/router can offer to devices connected to it via ethernet cable.

100
Usually, 100Mbps is sufficient for the needs of most users. For more demanding uses such as transferring large files (e.g. high-definition videos), prefer a device with support for 1000Mbps. Note that all involved devices must support this speed, otherwise data transmission will be limited to the speed of the slowest device.
1000
The 1000Mbps are mainly important in professional environments where the transfer of large files (e.g. high-definition videos) is a frequent occurrence. Note that all involved devices must support this speed, otherwise data transmission will be limited to the speed of the slowest device.
Portable Hotspot
No

Portable Hotspot

Mobile routers with built-in battery so you can use them anywhere.

These mobile routers have a SIM card slot for wireless internet access through 3G/4G mobile networks.

Ideal for homes with many smart devices. Compatible with all previous generations.
Network Standards
IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11 b/g/n, IEEE 802.11ac, IEEE 802.11ax

Network Standards

The device supports various networking standards that affect the maximum Wi-Fi speed, distance, sensitivity to obstacles, etc. This information is also reflected in the more user-friendly Wi-Fi generation. It is recommended to choose a Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) or Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) device.

IEEE 802.11 b/g/n

The older Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 4, is significantly slower than Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac) and Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax).

It is recommended for use with few devices and for applications that do not require high speeds. For most users, it would be preferable to choose a Wi-Fi 5 or 6 device according to their needs. Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support a previous one.

IEEE 802.11ac
The most common Wi-Fi standard, known as Wi-Fi 5, is significantly faster than Wi-Fi 4 (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n).

Wi-Fi 5 can currently meet the needs of most users, but there is now the next generation Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) which offers the ability to connect many more devices to serve the increasingly smart devices in a home.

Each newer generation is compatible with devices that support some previous one.
IEEE 802.11ax
The most modern Wi-Fi standard, also known as Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax), offers speeds up to 40% faster than Wi-Fi 5, coordinates communication with connected devices to consume less battery, and performs better in environments with multiple Wi-Fi devices.

    The best purchase I have made in years!
    I am in an area that has a "dead zone" for all networks to the point that I completely broke my contracts with COSMOTE & VODAFONE.
    Nevertheless, I have not seen less than 15MBPS with this particular router and you can see in the photos how much speed my phone (Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus) gets in exactly the same spot to understand the difference.

    10/10!

    UPDATE 03/26.
    I changed area and provider, locked the router to the band that gives the maximum possible and I see speeds up to 400Mbps. During the day, due to network load, it drops, but it consistently gives at least 50Mbps to EVERY device, meaning I can watch 4K movies on the TV and have at least 50Mbps on my phone without lag or anything else. The best purchase I have ever made to this day.

    Fast 5G router installed with a Cosmote card in an area with coverage. It comfortably reaches 300/60 generally stable. It heats up relatively lightly, depending on the period and the space. Easy to install, the browser interface is simple and useful.

    I did extensive research many months before making a purchase. I looked at all the routers in the range of €500 and below and studied all the official specifications from the manufacturer and concluded that this particular router is the best one can buy at this moment for a cost of up to €500 (possibly even higher).

    For basic use, all you need is a SIM card and power supply. You wait 1-2 minutes and you are already on the internet without needing to make any adjustments. Literally plug and play, and very fast on reboot.

    For additional settings, there is the ZTELink app. Personally, I didn't find it particularly convenient, and I preferred to make my settings in a browser environment.

    I am in an area where 5G coverage is poor. Nevertheless, the router, thanks to its amazing antennas and the X62 R16 modem, scores 80-100 mbps on a 5G network at the same time that the iPhone 15 Pro with its fantastic and much superior X70 modem does 30-40 mbps.

    The wifi is not bad, but I would like a bit more range, as it has a relatively similar coverage to my old Asus router which cost half the price.

    I did a firmware update, and I also did a reset because I lost the new admin password, without any problems and very smoothly.

    I mention that the X62 R16 modem is not the same as the X62. Also, I am not sure to what extent there are infrastructures at this moment in Greece to utilize the X62 R16. In any case, for now, one will not see a difference from the simple X62 that is in the MC 888 Pro, but the X62 R16 will show its value in the future when and if our 5G network is upgraded. This is also the reason I chose to spend a bit more money instead of getting the Pro. I hope in the coming years we will have a 5G SA network to make the investment worthwhile.

    I did extensive research many months before making a purchase. I looked at all the routers in the range of €500 and below and studied all the official specifications from the manufacturer and concluded that this particular router is the best one can buy at this moment for a cost of up to €500 (possibly even higher).

    For basic use, all you need is a SIM card and power supply. You wait 1-2 minutes and you are already on the internet without needing to make any adjustments. Literally plug and play, and very fast on reboot.

    For additional settings, there is the ZTELink app. Personally, I didn't find it particularly convenient, and I preferred to make my settings in a browser environment.

    I am in an area where 5G coverage is poor. Nevertheless, the router, thanks to its amazing antennas and the X62 R16 modem, scores 80-100 mbps on a 5G network at the same time that the iPhone 15 Pro with its fantastic and much superior X70 modem does 30-40 mbps.

    The wifi is not bad, but I would like a bit more range, as it has a relatively similar coverage to my old Asus router which cost half the price.

    I did a firmware update, and I also did a reset because I lost the new admin password, without any problems and very smoothly.

    I mention that the X62 R16 modem is not the same as the X62. Also, I am not sure to what extent there are infrastructures at this moment in Greece to utilize the X62 R16. In any case, for now, one will not see a difference from the simple X62 that is in the MC 888 Pro, but the X62 R16 will show its value in the future when and if our 5G network is upgraded. This is also the reason I chose to spend a bit more money instead of getting the Pro. I hope in the coming years we will have a 5G SA network to make the investment worthwhile.

    I don't know, but I can't catch and I always get stuck when I play.

    The best purchase I have made in years!
    I am in an area that has a "dead zone" for all networks to the point that I completely broke my contracts with COSMOTE & VODAFONE.
    Nevertheless, I have not seen less than 15MBPS with this particular router and you can see in the photos how much speed my phone (Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus) gets in exactly the same spot to understand the difference.

    10/10!

    UPDATE 03/26.
    I changed area and provider, locked the router to the band that gives the maximum possible and I see speeds up to 400Mbps. During the day, due to network load, it drops, but it consistently gives at least 50Mbps to EVERY device, meaning I can watch 4K movies on the TV and have at least 50Mbps on my phone without lag or anything else. The best purchase I have ever made to this day.

    Fast 5G router installed with a Cosmote card in an area with coverage. It comfortably reaches 300/60 generally stable. It heats up relatively lightly, depending on the period and the space. Easy to install, the browser interface is simple and useful.
