Don’t do it

Boogie . 16 days ago

Not sure if it’s Verizon or this device but the service is terrible! It goes from 5G to no service ever 5 minutes! It’s so bad I had to get AT&T and its works great. I honestly feel ripped off.

Great potental

Rksparky . 3 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

Have been using hot spots for years for work and personal. #1 one thing no body tells you when buy a hotspot pick the top tier plain they have to get beat speed from device.. I have speed tested this device in several area with speed 3+Gbps x 100+Mbps but on average on 5G UW 300+Mbps x 10+Mbps.. I also find in some cases I can pick up better signal on this hotspot then iPad or cell phones.. Love the Ethernet port which is great verse of options working in different fields where I might need to connect multiple non WiFi devices.. As for WiFi it has amazing range I use it when in sites where I get no cell signal I place this hot spot where I do get service and use wifi calling on my phones.. Now few things need definitely need to be addressed. Number one and it’s an issue that I’ve seen over and over The overheating of the unit when charging while unit is on.. Really is biggest down fall to the device.. I have in jam taken battery cover off which sometimes helps, even used a portable fan to blow air on it.. best advice if your charging it keep it out of the sun which can be hard in car or truck.. I even hung by the charging cord in way to have it in front of truck vent on max AC to keep unit cool during charging and using it.. The other issue is very limited device settings such as custom DHCP, love to see VPN option which would be great option for companies.. The device does take pretty good beating but display cracks easily. A bothering fact and this device fault but make sure when you get any hot spot from Verizon or any provider check and make sure they disable messaging to device.. I was mad amount messages because of phone number from previous user.. which end up as extra fees to me.. One more thing I would have love to see maybe as option in the future dual SIMS working in telecom and knowing every company has its area they thrive in or lack of coverage.. Or those who travel a lot to other countries this feature should be helpful. But also see the benefits of dual providers to increase service coverage and amp speeds when 5G Ultra not available..,

Not Great Home Internet

Warbrooks . 4 months ago

Expensive Option for spotty coverage. T-Mobile is less expensive and better plan. I will be switching.

Jet pack

Sable . 4 months ago

I purchased a new version. The guy at the store told me just to plug it in and that the network and password would not change. It took five hours with several different Verizon specialist to figure out how to make this thing work when the guy at the store should’ve registered, my device!!! I really wish we can use the G network, but for some reason which I hope you guys bring 5G to Paw paw Michigan I don’t get a very good signal two bars only . Can you please get some towers or better service out here??

Overheats throttles down normal use

mitch . 4 months ago

You cannot leave this plugged in. It discharged and stops charging. Plus under use it overheats and throttles down. It put cold packs under it so I can work all day at normal speeds. Not worth the money paid. Real design issues and don’t know why they keep selling it.
