Verizon Jetpack® 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot MiFi® 6620L - GPS over Wi-Fi

If you need GPS on your Verizon Jetpack - MIFi 6620L for use with computer apps, view this info.
  • The GPS over Wi-Fi setting allows the MiFi device to provide a GPS (NMEA) stream to a Windows or Mac computer.
    This is only useful if running an app that is capable of utilizing a NMEA GPS stream (e.g., Microsoft Streets & Trips, etc.).
  • To utilize GPS over Wi-Fi, a driver must be installed on the computer.
