GadgeIT PTCL Charji Cloud R600A

After my disappointing experience with my previous Charji Cloud , I was forced to look for alternative options. Couldn’t settle for anything less than a 4G, so my only options were Zong and PTCL. Zong ruled itself out during my test use due to its Unethical Tactics. PTCL EVDO was all that I was left with, I got the PTCL EVDO Charji Cloud R600A which is a product of GadgeIT, with hopes that it will prove a better hardware than Huawei.

PTCL Charji Cloud R600A Interface

The most interesting thing I noticed was the interface which was really exotic and felt good to the eyes.The Web Admin panel with all its fancy looks lagged and it was not very responsive.

Drawbacks of GadgeIT PTCL Charji Cloud R600A

Few drawbacks I noticed during my use are :

• It lacks the ability of Port forwarding, so thats a big issue for tech guys and gamers
• No manual IP binding , again issue or those who want to run a dynamic updated Server for any reason
• No MAC to IP Binding, so new IP everytime. That is indeed a turn off
• No Firewall of any sort
• No bandwidth usage limit option
• No URL / IP Blacklisting for safe guarding your data
• No TR-069 or similar protocol allowing remote configuration via ACS(s)
