I am using this for the first time right now. It is slower than molasses :( Any suggestions? Should I turn it off when not in use? Buffer...Buffer...Buffer.

Cools! For anyone asking what plans are available for Metro’s monthly hotspot plans, similar to T-Mobile: $35 (10GB), $45 (15GB) $55 (20GB) $75 (30GB) (with AAL). (single line plans: $70 - 10GB, $80 - 15GB, $90 - 20GB, $110 - 30GB).

@@jamesmantilla2732 I got the one from T-Mobile. If you at a line you get the device for free... basically it’s a credit. The plan you need is Unlimited 6g ($30 dollar plan) and up. If you call or message T-Mobile support, they will charge you 20 bucks. So mention that you tried to get it yourself but it didn’t give you that option. Mostly likely they will wave that 20 bucks. Make sure you have it on autopay. So you can save 5 dollars. I got mine for 6 dollars. I got shipping for free. Now I’m waiting for it to get to me. Hope this helps.

Mine will never work. All lights are light blue like they are supposed to. Meaning everything is connected and correct. But when try and connect says ready to connect when network quality improves

Do you know how to access the dedicated web-based Mgt tool?

Mine will not give me access to the Internet (supposed to be free) and asking me to sign in. What do I do?

Can this be accessed by a laptop from the USB cable?

Great video. I know you're not an expert on the topic but does it make sense to purchase if my cell is already a hotspot? We camp a lot and I think i need to make the investment on strengthening the LTE sig coming in to our RV but this might be a good choice also as to having a dedicated hotspot with the added frequencies

Hmmm, I'm a bit puzzled by this review. It's not a review of how well the device functions, it's really just a review of the features it has, though these are useless if the device doesn't work well. What I came here for was to see you use it and report on that experience. The listed features are a bonus. This video should be titled, "Alcatel Linkzone 2 (4G LTE Hotspot) - Features Review!

it can be good in cases you need router functions, like with this cameras with internet, you can use out of their apps.
