I have brought the stick to use it on my ASUS RT N16 router. For the stick there after some searching on the net a firmware update. After updating any relevant / noticeable differences. The stick is of a type identical to the E182, E1823 or Telekom Business Stick. The only difference is that the other UMTS and WCDMA frequencies used for USA / ASIA. Since I do not him directly to the PC use, I can not say much about the software. For the firmware update it ha but works well. I use the stick with a SIM EPLUS in Berlin. With me EHR has been the problem that many radio masts are available, which do not support all HSPA + and I had problems with the old stick he has operated in the mode "Funkmast hopping". Not quite understandable, but resolved was the location of the sticks. I have usb ex-WLAN stick-pedestal finally entitled him to a long search for the right location so that the following values are reached stable.

Very helpful has proven to stick in the current download at [...] at different locations (depending on length / way of the USB cable) to a favorable time 8-12 clock or 22-3 clock in various locations / orientations / twisted test in itself. An external antenna has not really helped me. Also it is important before buying via Android App "open signal" first find out where is that radio mast with which max Verbindngsstandard (HSDPA / HSPA / HSPA +)
Many have written here that the stick often times goes by itself and restarts. I can confirm. In my first week, about 4 times. Rising Time approx 20 sec. Nevertheless for me no real gripe, as I can not narrow down the exact error and also my old stick (Huawei E220) has made on the router often.
