Mercusys MT110 V1 - Mobile hotspot - 4G LTE - 150 Mbps - 802.11b/g/n

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The Mercusys MT110 V1 is one of those “cheap and cheerful” 4G hotspots that make sense when you need internet *now* without messing about with installation. At ~£31 ex‑VAT it’s priced like an emergency backup, a short-term site solution, or something to keep as a spare for teams that occasionally go off-grid. In the UK, if you’ve got decent 4G coverage where you’ll use it, it’ll do the job for basic browsing, email, and light web apps—exactly the kind of scenario where paying for a full router would be overkill.

That said, I wouldn’t pick this if you need reliability or heavy usage. These low-cost hotspots tend to have less control over connectivity, can struggle when signal quality is mediocre, and they’re not the same league as a proper router with stronger session handling and better consistency under load. Also, “hub/switch” is a slightly odd category for a hotspot—this is really a mobile router for sharing a cellular connection, not a device you’d build a business network around. If you’re buying for staff who’ll be online all day, or for critical work, you’ll probably regret going this cheap; if you just need temporary connectivity or a simple fallback, it’s good value.
