When you plug in USB-C power the unit turns itself on. This means if you have it charging and you unplug and throw it in your bag it’s active. If you don’t realize this and turn it off you’ll end up with a flat Mudi when you actually need it
I don’t think I’ve ever had a mobile phone (and I’ve had them since my first brick NEC 9B) or a PDA (Palm Pilot 100) that when it is turned off and plugged into the power turns itself on?
Normally if it’s off then it shows a battery charging indicator only.
Normally if I’m plugging in the Mudi it would be to charge it up only. As I say if youre not aware of this you may find the Mudi flat when you really want to use it.
Yes. Android phones only start up partially, into their battery charging mode. You need to hold the power button to power it on. I personally think the Mudi should also be turned off. It can show an indicator on the screen that it is charging, but not have the router features on at all.
Any idea if the usb supports drives over 2TB?
I currently use my GL-MIFI as a portable cloud drive but I am hoping the mudi may support more drives.
Thanks in advance.
Would that firmware upgrade and option also be possible for the GL-Mifi? It is not an urgent priority, but I do find myself turning off the unit every time I begin charging, like the users of the Mudi above.
I am disappointed because I bought the GL-MiFi 4G Smart Router that was a waste of money 6 months ago. Now here is this device and I wonder if it is any better in terms of speed.
How easy is it to swap the PCIe modem for another one? I plan to travel to different regions and I don’t want to purchase and carry multiple devices. I want to purchase multiple PCIe cards instead.
Maybe you should considering getting the Eg25-G which is the "global’ modem and covers more of the bands. I use an EP06-E optimised for here in Australia but when I travel will swap in a eg25-g. Once for the whole trip, then swap back out on my return😂
That’s what I was looking for, but their sales told me they don’t offer a global version…
However after your suggestion I searched their store and found what I think you are referring to:
But… I don’t see the G version listed in the specs…I need to check the bands to see how truly global it is…for example, will it work in Japan? they have a separate card just for Japan, must be a reason for that too…
