The engineer helped us recover the NE40’s password, I am in awe of their expertise.
Kimani
Excellent service and great price! The pre-owned one still works fine!
Fernando

Wooden box, Very good package to protect my device.
Corredoiras
Ecuador
With BGP license, cost-effective device.
NE40E-X3
Chile
Back up for our NE40E, it is very old model, so the manufacture year of the NE40E and service cards is old, but all they work well.
Olivier
Qatar
Although we asked for a pre-owned device, to much our surprise, NE40E and its card we received are very new.
Mogale
Germany
We received NE40E last week with a paper carton, hope next time it can be packed with a caron box or packed on a pallet, becuase NE40 will all cables are very heavy.
Arguimbau
Colombia
Third time to order NE40E-X3 from Thunder-link.com, a reliable partner.
Ernesto
Philippines
NE40E-X3 with MPU SDRAM 2 GB, what we really wanted is 3G, but very rare, hope next time I can get it.
Niraj
Nepal
To be honest my account manager has provided the best service for NE40E-X3. That is why we finally choose Thunder-Link.
Jimmy
Argentina
The price is better than our locals, work well, really our purcahse helper.
Saeed

Can the NE40E support mac authentication when it function as a BRAS?
Petrova

How to hardreset the NE40E router, we are unable to rename the config file using cntrl+B mechanism.
