Review: CPE Pro 2 improves on the original and a great Home Broadband solution, especially in a rural spot! - I live in a rural area, where fibre broadband cannot get better than 25Mbps download speed, with upload of around 5Mbps - just about going out of date in terms of what's required (for WFH, gaming, 4K streaming etc). I wanted something better, with the arrival of a next-gen games console and the desire to download 50gb games. I decided to invest in a 5G Home Broadband plan directly with a leading UK network, and they sent me the original CPE Pro. It was good, great in fact, but when I found out this had already been released and I'd gotten old tech for £70 a month (18 month contract) and £100 up front, I was not particularly happy! So I cancelled that contract whilst I could and bought this, along with a 5G Unlimited SIM only plan (the Home Broadband was capped at 1TB, but this SIM only deal is truly uncapped with no fair usage policy, so even better!). I now pay only £33 a month, although the up front cost was £379 instead of £100. Over the 18 month period that will save me £369 and I have the latest tech and truly unlimited data! Not to mention my chosen music streaming service included as a benefit, saving me a further £180 over 18 months. Anyway, the device itself. The Huawei CPE Pro 2, is fantastic. The original was fantastic, but this smaller model boosts performance by more than 10%, in both upload and download speed. I'm not actually in a 5G area just yet, so I'm using a 4G signal, which as I sit here at my desk RIGHT NEXT TO the CPE Pro 2 and run a speed test on my iPhone 12 Pro (same network, 5G enabled SIM also on 4G signal), I get 3.1Mbps download and 5.0Mbps upload speed, with a ping of 61ms. The CPE Pro 2, delivers 100Mbps+ download and 10Mbps upload with a ping of 20ms. Perfect for handling everything I intend to throw at it. I've been using this set up for a couple of months now, and spent a week with the CPE Pro 2 instead of the original CPE Pro. That was giving me around 80Mbps download at the top end, with an average download of 6-8Mbps. This just shows the latest hardware is much better. It's also smaller and also silent. This model has a fan inside but I can't hear it for trying. It does not have the input for an external antenna, which the CPE Pro did, but that's no problem given the better performance it delivers. All of my testing has been via WiFi and not ethernet - I'm saving that for my console but just expect a more consistent performance. In addition, I use 4x Huawei Q2 Pro, and 1x Huawei Q2 Pro Satellite devices to create a mesh network around the house. This means I now get almost the same signal as the main router gives me, at both ends of the house, throughout upstairs and in the garden. This additional hardware was SO simply to set up and covers what were previously significant blackspots, with almost no loss of strength. The Huawei Smart Home app for iOS is great too, allows you to keep an eye on how your network is doing, how it's being used and good diagnostic tools. It's also really simple to set up guest WiFi and have parental control over individual devices if you need it. This set up handles 3 of us working from home, 4K streaming on the TV, 4x desertcart Echo devices, a number of iPads/iPhones and also games consoles - many simultaneously. It really is a very capable set up, all driven by the CPE Pro 2 bringing in a strong signal in the first place. Worth every penny, and certainly worth testing even if you think your 4G signal by phone is not great, as you can see, I get 20x the speed my phone can achieve - most likely owing to the device being a dedicated one for converting mobile signal to WiFi, and larger than the iPhone. The CPE Pro 2 is really light too. I'm really looking forward to the day it catches 5G signal as that gets closer, currently 150m up the road!
Review: Works well - I’m using this with a good value unlimited data SIM which uses the EE network (1P internet). 5G speed is good, better than on mobile phones, in a poor signal strength area. I have previously used Huwawei’s 4G modems. They have sockets to which an external antenna can be attached to boost signal strength. This model does not. The antenna I purchased works well with 4G and was marketed as “5G ready”. It seems a shame that it cannot be attached to this modem.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well

### ⭐ No manual 4G/5G control – causes frequent disconnections
*by L***K on 9 December 2025*

This router has a critical firmware limitation that is not clearly disclosed on the product page. There is no option to manually lock or switch between 4G and 5G. Network selection is fully automatic. In areas where 5G signal is unstable, the router constantly switches between 5G and 4G, which in my case caused regular full internet dropouts requiring manual reconnection or reboot. Huawei technical support confirmed in writing that: • Manual 4G/5G selection is not supported • The behaviour is firmware-related • There is no fix or firmware update available If you don’t have exceptionally strong and stable 5G coverage, this router is unreliable. I had to return it and replace it with another brand that supports manual network control. Hardware looks good on paper, but the firmware makes it unsuitable for real-world use. My advice - look for something else, this is very bad router and you will be disappointed, trust me
