Official Product Info : LR1200 

Currently support local telco's bands as follows :

Use the provided simcard jacket for nano simcard and insert this way : 

Make sure it's fully inserted properly :

 

What I like about the LR1200 :

  • Support almost all known local telco's data simcard
  • Decent performance even at in-door
  • Both LTE/4G and typical WAN port connectivities
  • Responsive/smooth firmware experience
  • Easy to bring along whenever on-the-road
  • Reasonably priced, and it's OpenWRT-able cool

Could be better if :

  • Make it even smaller/lighter, more convenient to bring along on-the-road
  • Stronger LTE/4G antenna gain, like 7dBi and above tongue-out
  • External wifi antennas instead of internal
  • To supply a USB to DC-inlet cable, so can use powerbank
  • Need to beef up more frequent firmware update to address stability/vulnerabilities/etc

Supported by OpenWRT since 19.07 branch :
