From a search online, you seem to be asking about the "EE 4GEE Home Router 2":

I'm pretty sure this Router is a LTE CAT12, so potentially up 720mps DL, but your never really get that in real terms

I see it's advertised for sale as Cat 12 but reviews lean more towards Cat 7. Can't currently find details of its modem/radios.

It's possible some reviewers are confusing the second one with the first one.

Here's a Cat 12 launch where the router is not named. 🤔

The 4GEE WiFi is Cat 12 apparently, if there could be any more confusing name for a device. 😂

I hope the EE experts will share the characteristics 😁

Hi @Plotenka,

I see some claims the specs are equivalent to the Huawei B535 but no references are provided to back up those claims.

https://www.ispreview.co.uk/talk/threads/ee-4g-mobile-broadband-router-2-4gee-router-2.36452/

Others suggest it could be better. Just wish the specs would be provided officially.

This is the highest Huawei hit for the front part of that partcode: https://consumer.huawei.com/en/routers/4g-router-2-pro/

Seems to be a variant of the above and this one: https://consumer.huawei.com/en/routers/4g-cpe-3/  (B535-232 on support page)

Hi, I need to clarify the technical specifications, as they are different on different sites. I need to clarify which category this device supports, category 7 or 12.

Hi @Plotenka,

Yes, it is a CAT 12 device.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, can you find out if the device supports 256QAM ???
