Hi All,Just posting as i'm doing some testing on a Vodafone USB Dongle the k5160 which according to this link has "4g extended" ref: http://www.vodafone.co.nz/shop/mobileInternetDetails.jsp?skuId=sku950357Well after doing some research and actual tests with the dongle received today firstly taking a look at the FCCID at the back which is QISK5160 it turns out that it does not have any 700mhz Frequencies ref: https://fccid.io/QISK5160Then taking a drive to a relatively nearby 700mhz tower the dongle does not connect. It only connects to a 4g tower on 1800mhz.Slightly frustrated so wondering if anyone else knows the deal? That aside anyway I'm wondering if anyone can tell me their experience with connecting a standard Vodafone Data Sim into a B315s-607 Rural Broadband Modem and operating as a CPE around NZ?Obvious Questions* will the network accept any Vodafone SIM in the Device* will the Device accept any Vodafone SIM If Not - Maybe i'm better to buy an unlocked one. Perhaps even unlocking a Skinny $99 one may be the right way forward as it doesn't seem difficult to unlock.Any knowledge on whether the devices are SIM locked would be useful too - and at what level based on operator or specific SIM. thanks.
