Previously LTE sticks were always available with branding and software of the major mobile operators Vodafone, O2 and Telekom. Cons: these sticks are printed externally with a logo of the network operator and the preinstalled software can often only certain SIM cards into the grid. For a few weeks, the Huawei E392 4G USB Modem is an LTE stick on the market that can easily be used with any carrier and not tailored to a particular provider is – 4G LTE Broadband team(www.4GLTEmall.com ) has tested the Huawei E392 4G Modem.
First Impression
The scope of delivery is next, the stick, only a small strap and some instructions. The wrist strap is also attached to the stick and on the cover for the USB port, thus preventing successfully that the cover can be lost. Overall, the Huawei E392 has quite large and bulky for a surf stick, which is certainly the fact that the USB port is not pivotable and therefore only a horizontal use the notebook is possible.

The Huawei E392 can run on both Windows and Mac OS X. After you have inserted the SIM card and the flash drive connected to the computer, the connection software start to install. Installation takes usually only a few minutes, then the LTE stick can be used immediately. If the PIN protection is enabled SIM card, you will be prompted to enter the PIN. Other settings usually do not need to be made, the connection software detects the inserted SIM card and automatically configures the matching connection parameters. If there are two different APNs with a provider, you can select them before joining in a dropdown menu. By clicking on the “Connect” the Internet connection is established – the Huawei E392 will select the fastest available network.
4G Network Testing
Unser the LTE network, the E392 could reach speeds of up to 100 Mbit / s download possible in the upload there are still 50 MBit/s. Huawei E392 is not only suitable for all German LTE networks, but also in other countries, such as in Scandinavia and in Australia. When the stick is used in the UMTS network, with DC-HSPA + the speed could reach up to 43.2 Mbit/s – provided at the current location, this speed is also supported. In our test, we was able to achieve in the download about 52 Mbit / s in the Vodafone LTE network in the UMTS network of Telekom there were at least another 30 Mbit / s. The high data rates are not only marketing, but with appropriate tariff quite achievable in practice. A summary of these fares, we have for you here made for Vodafone, Telecom and O2 together.

The reception of the Huawei E392 is not quite as good as that of the Vodafone K5005 (or sheet K5006) or by Speed Stick LTE Telekom. This appeared in the test actually Einie weaknesses. Makes particularly in marginal areas with unstable reception conditions, the apparent: while the telecom Speed Stick LTE is a 4G connection is possible, shows the Huawei E392 3G networks only as available. In my experience, this is also due to the Huawei E392 can not be rotated into a vertical position where the reception is usually a bit better. If you live in an under-served area, it is advisable to use an external antenna. For it provides the LTE stick two connections for two separate external antennas or MIMO antenna with two antenna connectors – depending on use case.
Conclusion:
Finally, one can see that the Huawei E392 definitely a good LTE stick. Especially for globetrotters, thanks to the support of all major bands and frequencies, users don’t worry about the compatibility of the network. The pre-installed software can convince with easy operation and quick setup. Equipped with an alternative connection software, it is also possible to use the Vodafone K5005 with all network operators.
