Xiaomi 5G CPE Pro
I wanted to buy a 5G router because I can't take out my own fibre optic internet subscription in my student flat and the internet provided by the administration is rubbish. After several YouTube reviews, I decided in favour of this one.
I am completely satisfied. The router achieves around 540 MBit/s on the Salt network in Zurich via WLAN and even through three walls still 170 MBit/s with a reliable ping of <20ms.
The router leaves many settings to the user that cannot be set on other models. For example, the channel width and the channel can be selected manually (incl. DFS channels 52-64 and 100-140).
The only criticism is that the web interface could be a little clearer.

I have bought the device twice in three days, so you can imagine how excited I am. My previous Huawei does connect, but it seems to be outdated and I had constant interruptions no matter where I put it. I needed a device that would allow me to be on the move more quickly, but also that I could set up a stable network for home office and internet calling. I found what I was looking for. Not only does it look great, but it's also easy to adjust the settings. I'm now cancelling my cable connection and surfing with Yallo Go Max at an unbeatable price with the desired Mbit/s. I'll have paid off the device in 12 months in any case. Further recommendations are out.
Digitec: You guys are awesome, ordered 22:48, delivery the next day. 😘

Flawless, much higher speed than with the 5G phone. Works for me with Galaxus Mobile 5G and Yallo 4G SIM cards.
Previously, I always had the smaller models for SIM cards (Netgear), but the batteries got thicker after one or two years. Since switching to this model, I no longer have to worry about what will happen to the battery.
The reception goes a long way and the internet speed is excellent even with several connected devices (I have a 5G SIM card in it)

The device is great for the price. The SIM card slot is not exactly user-friendly. The SIM card can be inserted easily but you need tweezers to remove it.

Good replacement for fixed connection with really high speed! We had a good 400/50 line with Yallo Go Max! for 15.90 CHF /M in bridge mode with an ASUS Ax86U. My cable modem is out!
