Du Launches The First Ever 5G-Ready Wifi Router

Slow browsing speeds are a thing of the past. This is quite consistent with Dubai-based telecom operator Du after launching the UAE’s first 5G-ready WiFi router.

The wireless 5G terminal device from ZTE is out there to customers with zero upfront, ranging from AED210 per month, Du’s parent, Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (EITC), said during a statement.

The ZTE 5G router will allow customers to enjoy plug and play 5G access within all 5G-enabled areas of the UAE.

Du said its 5G locations are set to grow throughout 2019 as its intensive 5G rollout journey brings subsequent generation of connectivity to more parts of the country.

CEO’s Statement

Fahad Al Hassawi, deputy CEO, telco, EITC, said: “Consumers are increasingly conscious of the boundless benefits and large potential of 5G. This is often opening up new doors for them by unlocking a plethora of opportunities. These opportunities empower their connected lifestyle needs.

“Individuals, businesses, and government entities are looking to 5G to facilitate digital transformation. As our stable of 5G-ready devices continues to grow. This is combined with the info SIM packages also available. We glance forward to shaping consumers’ connected futures, both on the go and reception.”

The ZTE 5G router enables customers to enjoy Du’s 5G network by installing a 5G SIM card. This can also be done through 50GB Data SIM within the router. Though this will cost you a further AED279 per month. This unlocks 5G WiFi speeds for users connected to the router, no matter the network speed their device is currently operating on.

In June, Du introduced the UAE’s first 5G-ready device – the ZTE Axon 10 Pro – to the market.
