I tried a WiFi router that can be USB tethering with Android

LTE -compatible smartphone that is not unusual for the communication speed of 30Mbps to go down.If it is so fast, many people want to use it as a communication line at home?In such a case, we will introduce useful items.

The item is Planex's "3G mobile communication terminal compatible small Wi-Fi multi-pocket router" (manufacturer model number MZK-MR150).Originally, it is a product that uses a USB stick type mobile communication terminal, but in fact, you can connect an Android smartphone to USB tethering.

The setting is very easy.It is not enough to be set.

As mentioned above, simply enable "USB tethering" by sharing a mobile network, and then connect the Android smartphone.This time, I tried it with "HTC J Butterfly HTL21" on hand, but the MZK-MR150 side does not need any settings and can now be used as a broadband router.

Several times, I measured the communication speed with the HTC J Butterfly HTL21 and the wifi connected iPad mini, but of course the downward communication speed was almost the same.This time, it was not reached 10Mbps because it was a measurement under the bad condition of a building on a high floor, but it seems that it can be used more comfortably in places where the original speed of LTE comes out (such as my home).

Depending on the communication speed, if you cancel your home fixed line and make one Android smartphone contract, you will save a lot of data communication charges.

If the operation is complicated, you may think that it is a mess, but if you enable "USB tethering", just connect the Android smartphone to the MZK-MR150 (in the case of HTC J Butterfly HTL21.)Moreover, since the MZK-MR150 is supplied to the Android smartphone, the charging has already ended the next day.

You can connect to the main PC at home with a wired LAN cable, and the MZK-MR150 has a much stronger WiFi output (it will arrive 20 to 30 meters), so if it is not a very large house, each room is not available.Can be used in.Personally, it is easy to use from a fixed line at home.

However, this time, we confirmed that USB tethering can be done with HTC J Butterfly HTL21 and "Galaxy Note II SC-02E", but it does not guarantee that.In the former, USB tethering is automatically enabled, but the latter had to enable USB tethering every time it was connected.Please purchase at your own risk when purchasing or introducing.
