Tri Cascade VOS 5G Cellular Travel Internet, Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G Modem-RF Full 5G Spectrum System Global Access Supports macOS, iPadOS, Windows, Linux, USB C Dongle

VOS 5G works great, as advertised. 5G/4G cellular internet modem. Great solution when an internet connection is critical. Use as primary secure internet connection at home, work, or when traveling. Or use as failover connection to supplement home or work internet provider. Intended for a single computer connection.Direct cellular connection is more secure than public Wi-Fi or phone hotspot. Using VOS 5G prevents draining phone battery for hotspot, prevents interfering with phone connection to home or work Wi-Fi, and prevents opening your computer to potential hackers when an internet connection is needed in public areas.No charging, ever. Low power needs are supplied from USB connection. Comes with USB-C to USB-C 3.1 cable. USB-C port is common on modern computers. Older computers without a USB-C port will need a USB-C to USB-A 3.1 adaptor or alternate cable, not included. Computer must support USB 3.1 wired network connection.VOS 5G requires data service with an active SIM from a cellular carrier, such as T-Mobile. Device is unlocked. The box includes a T-Mobile SIM that requires activation to function. T-Mobile supports international roaming with unlimited data and various high-speed data options. I contacted Tri Cascade with SIM activation difficulty caused by my identity protection credit locks. The credit requirement is T-Mobile. At Tri Cascade's direction, I resolved the issue with T-Mobile direct SIM activation, which in my case required identity verification. Email [email protected] with any issues related to activation or warranty registration, and they promptly respond.I am recommending VOS 5G to my friends that travel or work from home.

[New Update - Oct 2024]I got in touch with the support about restart issues with the device. Support is saying it's a problem with Macs as they doesn't support the full power needed by the device. NOW How's that my problem, you shouldn't market as supported by Macs and even iPads and Androids. My dongle keeps restarting on all devices. Very misleading. No Warranty coverage provided. you are on your own. Support refused to fix or replace the device.[New Update]Got a replacement sent by Amazon. still the same issue. randomly looses connection when you are in the middle of a zoom call. speed is great, though. but very very unreliable as I do Remote Desktop and it keeps disconnecting.=========================it works great, when it works, But then keeps restarting randomly about once per 30 minutes. and when it goes down it goes down for 1-2 minutes, so if you are in a meeting, it disconnects, so not very dependable, it is okay for normal surfing, but not for important work like office meetings, video calls etc... tested with my macbook pro 2021. ordered a replacement, will see if that helps.

I have a verizon hotspot with the 100GB data plan and i have a GPD win mini which is a 7 inch mini laptop that i have to carry around that hotspot which is nearly the same size as the laptop. When i saw this it reminded me of those usb EVDO modems from back in the day and i was really excited.When i got it, i popped my verizon sim card in and boom it connected right up, even to 5G. Unfortunately, it does not support band n66. This is the band verizon is rolling out its super fast 5G UW network on, and without it, it makes the device worthless to me. With LTE/5G i'm lucky to get 3-4mbps download. Its so over congested that its almost unusable, on 5G UW band n66, i get 700-1000mbps all day long.If they ever make one of these that supports verizons band n66, i will absolutely buy one.

Surprised by all the negative reviews. I ordered mine last February 2024 and it had been working perfect for my needs. I already had an unlimited Verizon data sim. Soon as the VOS 5G dongle arrived I used it with my Verizon sim on my main laptop and business laptop which both works perfect. I could not get it to work with my MacBook, Android TV device or my PS5, but it does work great for PCs. Also I tried with a t mobile sim which was great, but it does not work with ATT sims. ATT will deactivate your ATT sim if used with this device.

To be fair, the product description does not say it works on all carriers... but it definitely does not work with AT&T. In fact, if you put an AT&T SIM card in the device your service will be suspended until you go contact them to beg forgiveness and have them re-instate service.

It was very easy to used in my laptop even do they didn’t say that I had to get it connected with t-Mobile.I had a chip that I’m getting charged by AT&T and I am able to use it and it works perfect

I was shocked, as soon as I plugged it in, super fast internet was at my fingertips. I was able to do work on my laptop as I was traveling down the road. It was great having a secure network that I didn’t have to worry about being hacked on. The speed was what I expected and it never lagged once. The device itself is nice and sleek, and a nice velvet travel bag was included as well. This was the solution I have been looking for when trying to find a way to work on the go. I will be recommending it to all my coworkers as I believe it’s going to be the next new thing!

All over the VOS website, they advertise this device is "NDAA Certified" and manufactured in Taiwan. As soon as I look at the box, I see the dreaded "made in china" phrase on every piece of the dongle. This advertising technique is shady and dishonest. I figured I'd look past the horrible reviews and give it a shot anyway - my mistake.
