Huawei E586 nag-maximize sa speed sa HSPA+ network (sama sa ZTE MF60). Tan-awa ang among bug-os nga review human sa jump.

Gigamit na nako ang Huawei's MyFi devices sa mga tuon karon ug nakakita usab og susama nga gipahinungod sa ubang mga manufacturer (tan-awa ang among Huawei E5 Pocket WiFi review ug ang ZTE MF60 review).

Ana ang package nga pocket WiFi, removable battery, micro-USB cable, wall charger, ug manual. Ang disenyo sa device hamis kaayo parehas sa mga naunang modelo sa E5 nga among nakita kaniadto. Ang pinakadako nga pag-usab mao ang LED display ug ang paggamit og micro-USB port imbes nga mini-USB port (sumala sa universal standards sa charging ports).

An SIM card tray gihapon makit-an sulod sa compartment sa baterya, luyo sa 1500mAh baterya. Ang power button ug ang WPS button anaa sa tuo nga kilid sa device samtang ang microSD card slot makit-an sa wala nga kilid.

Karon nagpakita ang LED display og daghang impormasyon ug estado sa device, lakip na ang:

• Kusog sa signal sa cellular nga network nga gikonekta
• Uri sa koneksyon sa network (H, 3G, E, G)
• Status sa WiFi + kantidad sa mga konektadong device
• Status sa koneksyon sa Internet
• Bag-o o dili pa nabasa nga SMS + kantidad sa mensahe
• Indikador sa kinabuhi sa baterya
• Ngalan sa network
• Bolumen sa data nga gigamit
• Kinatibuk-ang oras nga aktibo

An mga impormasyon nga gipakita sa LED naghatag kanimo og daghang datos nga kinahanglan nimo mahibalo bahin sa device ug sa network bisan dili pa mo-log in sa web admin panel.

Kini nga mga gamit sa pag-monitor sa ilang bandwidth usage ang "total traffic data" kay dako kaayo nga makatabang para sa mga tiggamit nga naggamit og volume-based charging.

Huawei E586 Pocket WiFi nga HSPA+:
• HSPA+/HSPA/UMTS 2100/1900/900/850 MHz, EDGE/GPRS/GSM
• Serbisyo sa pag-download sa data nga HSPA+ hangtod 21 Mbit/s
• Serbisyo sa pag-upload sa data nga HSPA+ hangtod 5.76 Mbit/s
• Serbisyo sa pag-download sa data nga HSDPA hangtod 14.4 Mbit/s
• WiFi 802.11 b/g/n ug WPS
• Built-in DHCP Server, DNS RELAY, ug NAT.
• Built-in UMTS ug WLAN high gain antenna
• Slop sa microSD card, hangtod 32GB
• Li-Ion battery 1500mAh

Nagtrabaho ang device sa kadaghanan nga mga network og awtomatiko ug base sa karanasan uban sa ubang mga network sa gawas, kasagaran nakadetect kini sa mga setting ug nagplugs niini. Sa dakong bahin, praktikal nga plug-and-play ang E586. Gihimo nako kini sa Globe, Smart ug Sun ug ang auto-configuration nagtrabaho. Sama usab kining gihimo nako samtang gigamit ko kini sa Singapore, Jakarta ug Hong Kong.

Aron ma-access ang Web Admin panel, ikaw magkonektar sa WiFi hotspot sa device ug mag-log in pinaagi sa local IP (192.168.1.1). Ang welcome page sa Web Admin na usab nagpakita kanimo og pipila ka gamayng butang sama sa connection ug WiFi status, karon nga mga konektadong device ug bandwidth nga gigamit. Kini usab nagpakita kon ang battery gicharge ba o dili.

Kini usab nga may bersyon sa mobile ang Web Admin kung mag-log in ka pinaagi sa imong cellphone o tablet. Adunay limitado nga mga feature bisan pa sa bersyon sa mobile. Bisan pa niini, mahimo nimo pagbalik sa classic version bisan unsa oras pinaagi sa usa ka link sa footer sa pahina.

Busa ang mga speed test mas nagtuki sa pagkinahanglan sa usa ka network kaysa sa device, apan kita gihapon nagkahadlok unsay paspas nga makahimo ang E586 kung naay tamang kondisyon.

Sa normal nga mga adlaw, nakakita ko og 2Mbps hangtod 4Mbps sa among lokal nga network (gamit ang Smart ug Globe). Ang mga speed test nga gihimo dinhi nagukoy sa bandwidth gikan sa client padung sa network sa ISP ug dili gyud nagpakita sa tinuod nga kinahanglan nga mga kugayon. Sa bisan unsang kaso, kini naghatag kanato og maayo nga panan-aw kon makita nato nga parehas nga speed test ang gihimo sa ubang mga device, linya o network. Mas interesante pa niini mao ang impresibong latency times, nga kasagaran ubos 100ms (maayo alang sa gaming?).

Ang battery life kay talagang lisod sukuran tungod kay nagdepende kini sa pag-aktibo nga koneksyon o sa idle mode. Ang akong pinakadako nga tumbok mao ang 4 oras, pero nagkadugay og daghan base sa klase sa aktibidad ug sa gidaghanon ug klase sa mga device nga konektado niini.

Kung gusto lang nga sigurado, akong gamit ang dugang nga portable battery nga nag-charge sa E586 bisan unsa pa aron makahatag kini og halos tibuok-adlaw nga walking hotspot service.

Kung kanunay ka sa dalan ug nagdala og daghang mga device, ang Huawei E586 nga adunay iyang HSPA+ capability naghatag nimo sa pinakamaayo nga koneksyon samtang mobile.

Apan, palihug nga tandaan nga ang device kusog lang base sa network diin kini konektado. Ang ideal nga set up mao ang pagkuha og unlocked MyFi ug pagdala og daghang prepaid SIM cards para makasiguro nga mahimo ninyo usab-on ang mga network bisan unsa pa, bisan asa.

An Huawei E586 nagbaligya sa ubos pa sa Php7,000 sa mga online nga tindahan ug sa mga independent nga magsuplay. Mas mahal gihapon kini apan kung kasagaran nimo ang pagbiyahe, sigurado kini nga usa ka hinungdanong pagsulay.

Pahayag sa Pagkakaabot: Gihatag ni HotGadgets ang among review unit. Makita nimo ang butang nga gipalit sa TipidPC dinhi ug sa Sulit dinhi.

What network speeds does the Huawei E586 support?

The Huawei E586 supports HSPA+ networks with speeds up to 21Mbps.

What improvements does the E586 have over previous models?

The E586 features an LED display and a micro-USB port instead of the mini-USB port.

Where is the SIM card tray located on the device?

The SIM card tray is found inside the battery compartment, behind the 1500mAh battery.

TIA.,

globesucks · 13 years ago

wag sa globe. mediocre sa service (in terms of connection, speed, etc.) at inaccurate billing. plus ineffective customer service. i was billed for more than 1000 for my plan na 650 even if i didnt use it much kasi may wifi sa office and pagdating sa bahay and during weekends tulog lang din naman ginagawa or wifi sa malls. tapos theyre claiming na 100+ hours gamit ko.

and there are times na when you call customer service sa 211, agents nila ay hanggang 10PM lang. as if natutulog ang pilipinas byt 10.01PM. Sun is better.

arnold maningding · 13 years ago

Steps required to manually configure the APN settings
1. Connect the E586 to your PC either by the USB cable or WiFi
2. Open a web browser and go to http://192.168.1.1
3. Login using the username ‘Admin’ and enter admin password (By default the password is ‘Admin’)
4. Click Log In
5. Click Settings > Profile Management
6. Untick ‘Auto APN:’
7. Select New Profile

Lorri · 13 years ago

Hurrah, that’s what I was exploring for, what a material! existing here at this website, thanks admin of this web site.

al · 13 years ago

i don’t think thie huawei e586 deserves a credit. after 5 4 mos of continuous use the unit is ineffective. always dc eventhough i am on 3G place. the unit is not working properly. i only get low speed. my provider told me to bring to their accredited supplier for repair but hey wont replace the unit. it sucks! i am paying postpaid and these hwat i deserve from them. to hell with the unit. think first before you buy and in my opinion it is a waste of money.

Kris · 13 years ago

Hello. Does anybody know which is better between Huawei E586 and E5331? Thank you very much.

Almont · 14 years ago

i just got an android phone (alcatel glory OT 918n) from Sun that’s wifi hotspot capable. i’m planning to just leave it at home as a permanent wifi hotspot. is there any speed/performance gain i could get if i use a device like the Huawei E586?

Jill · 14 years ago

Hi! I’m in HK right now. Would want to know which store I could get huawei myfi devices. It seems that fortress doesn’t have them. Recently been scammed by side shops so I want to be careful with this purchase. Thanks very much!

anne reyes · 14 years ago

sir help po regarding sa huawei e586…na ayos ko nalahat ng settings pero d parin ako mkaconnect sa net…sa screen ng huawei lumalabas ung X sa gilid ng phone logo.help naman sir..tnx!

Allen · 14 years ago

which is better, the Huawei E586 or the ZTE MF60? Thanks a lot

madz · 14 years ago

does it work on desktops too?

Glenn Mark · 14 years ago

@ Pierre. As you can see with the number on the ping column, it is really perfect for online gaming. I know someone who was privileged enough to get hold of it and he really has harnessed its power. As with other gadgets, however, Smart comm always effected download capping but it is still powerful.

Pierre · 14 years ago

Guys is this good for gaming and downloading stuff? is there a download cap for smart prepaid/postpaid?

mark · 14 years ago

wow bago to ah kaso baka hindi ito supported sa province namin.

Aaron Gerard SAntos · 14 years ago

Sir, question lang, may diperensya ba ang speed ng internet mo if naka post paid ka? or naka prepaid lang?

mas mabilis ba ang postpaid?

andrea · 14 years ago

Hi! Can anyone help me. I am contemplating on buying an e586 vs e560 myfi. I am going to use my prepaid internet sim from sun.

Using my dongle here in alabang its only around 1mbps download speed. Will changing it to a myfi device, e560 or e586 change the speed significantly? if yes by how much? thanks so much!

bigbird2323 · 14 years ago

Hi Jm,Thanks so much.work like a charm.

to sir yuga.Do you think that upgrading to postpaid from prepaid smart bro will make a difference in terms of speed.have you compared post paid vs pre paid speed using this modem.Thanks and more power :)

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 14 years ago

Hi! Yes, I switched to postpaid from prepaid and got better speeds.

I take back what Iâ€™ve said. The device can still be configured to use â€œ3G Onlyâ€ as a Network type. So itâ€™s fun.

How?? Can you teach me to do it because my modem always switches to 2g only and the only i can switch it back to 3g in my house is through restore default

JM · 14 years ago

@Peter,
1. Go to Mobile Connection Settings (http://192.168.1.1/html/mobileconnection.html)
2. Set the Connection Mode to “Manual” click Apply.
3. Go to the Connection Settings (http://192.168.1.1/html/connection.html) — there should be a “Disconnection” button. Click it to turn off the Mobile Radio (or simply disconnect from network)
4. Go to “Mobile Network Settings (http://192.168.1.1/html/mobilenetworksettings.html)
5. The preferred mode drop down can now be altered :)

Please let me know if this works for you! :)

Chris · 14 years ago

Sir Yuga how about the usage fee for prepaid? Pwede po ba siya na magunli for P50/Day (Smart) or depende pa rin sa Data Charge.

RazaH · 14 years ago

Hi Yuga,
Thanks alot for this review.
I have recently purchased this in HK and am having issues finding the WPA pre-shared key and the PIN that the setup client asks for
Are these the 8 digit numbers given on the back of the cover or something else?

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 14 years ago

It’s at the back of the battery compartment po.

bon salido · 14 years ago

Mga sir Iâ€™m very interested to buy this device and combined it globe prepaid Sim. Can someone enlighten me about 4g and 3g band. Kasi sabi nila ung simcard daw ng 4g flash ng globe e pareho lang sa 3g mas mabilis lng daw lasi naka 4g. Tanong ko lng po kung lagay ko ung globe sim ko sa Huawei E586 Pocket WiFi gagana po ba ung connection under 4g.

anna · 15 years ago

does anyone know about huawei e586 external antenna? in some websites it looks with external antenna while the huawei says it doesn’t have it.
http://www.4gsource.net/huawei-e586.html

nev · 15 years ago

Your E586 looks different. It looks like the E585. I think the E586 has 1 continuous front panel.

Sn · 15 years ago

Thats a e585 for sure.
I have the e586 and it is different / it has the continuous faceplate as nev says.
Does anybody know which of the three versions (v1 v2 or v3) is sold through 3.uk?
Mine can’t connect in USA (850 MHz), so I suspect it is v1 or v2. Is there a way to update the firmware to support umts 850mhz?

Amberle · 15 years ago

Kulang nalang diyan keypad, speaker at mic para puwede nang cellphone. Hindi pa nila nilubos-lubos ang design, eh.

junjun · 15 years ago

proud to be from huawei!

carlsant · 15 years ago

This is a great piece of kitt for anyone who wants to get on the internet when your on the road using an iPod Touch or Wi-Fi only iPad. this is the best i recommend this

Rainier · 15 years ago

Guys, Good day! San po nakakabili ng brand new na Huawei E586 unlocked? Thanks : )

review center · 15 years ago

Wow! This really suits for me. I gotta buy this one. Sana meron nyan sa Cebu area..

Jerome · 15 years ago

How is this different from the E586 Three UK branded units? Any difference in the specs? Or the same lang?

nadia · 15 years ago

I haven’t found yet a mobile router that supports 850/900Mhz on the 3G UMTS,
By the website below both MF60 and E586 works only on 2100MHz which is not enough for my country:
https://www.get3gnet.com/huawei-e586.html

kevs · 15 years ago

problema lang kasi ng mifi devices from ZTE to Huawei… wala silang option to change bands. Im using the newer Huawei E587 (40+mb) & ZTE MF60. Pag mahina yung signal ng HSPA+ sa area automatic the device will use the HSPA signal.

Pero dun sa mga buyers ng MF60 ZTE may trick para ma force mo yung mifi to use the HSPA+ rather than the stronger HSPA signal.

JM · 15 years ago

Just bought mine 2 days ago. You are absolutely correct, there is no way to change the Network preferred Mode.

The only trick that I do when the Mobile Connection mode has been degraded to 2G is to Manually Connect or reboot the device.

I can’t understand the reason why my neighbor’s Huawei Globe Tatto has this option available while mine E586 isn’t. :) FAIL.

Overall, it’s still a very good device.

By the way, i bought mine from HotGadgets of sulit/tipidpc.

JM · 15 years ago

I take back what I’ve said. The device can still be configured to use “3G Only” as a Network type. So it’s fun.

supertoblerone · 15 years ago

Where can we buy spare battery for this? This would work for both E5 and this new model right?

Nathan · 15 years ago

Hi, sorry new to this. Got a question, if i buy one of these? do i just buy any SMART prepaid sims? From there, will i be all good to go? Thanks!

jonaflormicfren · 15 years ago

Nice gadget for internet connection. Very good.

techjunkeez · 15 years ago

101% compatible with prepaid sims.

van · 15 years ago

what simcard do you use when you go to these places??

(Singapore, Indonesia, Hong Kong and China)

mikedp · 15 years ago

pwede bang prepaid sim card dito?

Rhynax · 15 years ago

Does this work with PLDT weroam too?

kabz · 15 years ago

sir yuga may i know what postpaid account you used when you got the 9+ Mbps download speed?

Bulag kabz · 15 years ago

“The fastest download Iâ€™ve seen via Speedtest.net is about 9.26Mbps on a Smart Bro Postpaid account at 3AM here in Makati.”

asa blog site ka na rin, matuto ka na ring magbasa.. sheeeesh!

kabz · 15 years ago

and dami mong sinasabi pre. hindi mo ba alam na may ibat ibang klase ng postpaid account ang available para sa consumers? hindi mo ba alam na iba ang profile ng starter, power at sim only? dude mag isip ka muna bago ka mag type!

kev · 15 years ago

tama si kabz… ano kayang postpaid plan to? pero may maganda daw na plan na working sa smart 4G yung weroam ng pldt. no cap daw siya i’m not sure.

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 15 years ago

I used the SmartBro Plan 999.

kabz · 15 years ago

i do have a weroam account and already tried using it with my e353. Nalaman ko na may hspa+ na sa amin dahil dun kaso hindi ko ramdam yung speed. nasa 1mbps lang din… mas mabilis nakukuha kong speed kapag gamit ko yung original na dongle nya. tried both weroam apn. same result. will try again later.
