I swapped my GLO SIM for a GLO 4G SIM (USIM) and am currently using it on the Huawei E5573s-606. It shows 4G on the MiFi dashboard but I can't browse. Even though it shows the full 5 bars at the MiFi dashboard, the internet connectivity icon at the bottom-right hand side of my laptop shows a yellow triangle which means it is a limited connection. I am currently subscribed to the GLO NGN1,000 3G data plan. Is it that previous 3G plans don't work with GLO 4G i.e do I have to subscribe to a 4G data package before I can browse on 4G? |

VKasparov:a 3g plan will work for 3g speed even if it's placed in the most sophisticated 4g device. |
Re: Glo 4G LTE - First Speedtest & Review by dustmalik(m): 10:41pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
VKasparov:Yes. Glo 3G data plans don't work over 4G LTE network. It will simply refuse to browse until you switch the network type to 3G. But the 4G data plans are backward compatible. So, yes, in order to browse over Glo 4G LTE network, you need to subscribe to their 4G plans. But the data plans cost the same anyway. |
Re: Glo 4G LTE - First Speedtest & Review by VKasparov(m): 10:54pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
dustmalik: O.K. Thanks! I have about 2GB left from the 3G NGN1000 data package, do you think I can go ahead and subscribe for a 4G Plan without exhausting it first? |
Re: Glo 4G LTE - First Speedtest & Review by dustmalik(m): 11:00pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
VKasparov:Now, this is what I'm not sure of. I mean, if you try to rollover the 3G plan with a 4G plan, I don't know if that will convert the remaining 2gb to a 4G data. Try it and see if it works. We just might learn from your experiment |

dustmalik: Bro, can the glo 4G work on my unlocked E5372 mifi? |
Re: Glo 4G LTE - First Speedtest & Review by dustmalik(m): 11:17pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
toluxa1:No, it can't. Your mifi doesn't support band 28. |

dustmalik: know anyone who has that your type unlocked for sale? |
Re: Glo 4G LTE - First Speedtest & Review by iliyande(m): 11:39pm On Jan 07, 2017 |
VKasparov: It won't work. The 4g data will be given a different account and your network mode alternative determines which account will be used. i.e when your network mode is switched to 3G only, 4g plan will be suspended. |

It seems the moderator has removed the Konga and google URL shortner address from the link I pasted so you might not be able to access them. Sha, here is a text file I attached containing the links and some pix of the products.
