Reception is fine, everything works including SMS/MMS. The only annoying issue is that because the battery like sucks, you have to set the system to go into a suspend state that can still be woken up by calls and texts. However sometime the modem just doesn't wake back up and I have to run a script to restart it. Also the possibility of missing calls in the suspend state is like 30%, it's not full proof. But I use an open source modem firmware that will send me missed texts once I reconnect to the network.

Plus the device is slow, connecting the cellular internet at boot is slow as fuck, and they fucked up by not putting a RT clock in this device with a watch battery. Sometimes it's like 7-8 minutes before it syncs with network time after boot, it's retarded.
