I've been thinking of getting something like that.The idea I thought of was that I could it in the car when we go on family trips. We go to Disney alot and It
ok, can you use it worldwide? for example if you have a worldwide cellphone number which works wherever you go, will this service plan also support worldwide?
price is through the roof and its a piece of shit it over heats about every 15 mins then it has to cool down for about 10 and it gets SHITTY service its a waste of money DO NOT buy this i fully reget buying it.
@Shayd93 NO ITS NOT!!!!! Its only $99.99 do u know how much money it takes to make that it costs 5x more than wat its worth u make it seem like it's $500
Good review, kudos! I was wondering what is under the hood with this thing. I work out doors and I was looking for something to play Internet based radio, pandora/Sirus on my touch, but like you mentioned, it's for lite use basically. I guess it's back to the drawing board. Thanks for the review, it was well informative.
Nice review! I use my Verizon phone and tether it to my computer, then use its internet to broadcast a wifi hotspot from my computer. Complicated setup, but unlimited Internet on all my devices for $30 month!
I use ours to run our auctions in the field. We use it to run credit cards, and some times to run on-line feeds to allow us to take live Internet bids. Our main problem is when we have to have it hooked to only one computer at at time. I can hit it from several if it is unpluged from a computer but then it dies after a few hours. I am looking at Youtube to find a video I saw where you can toggle a bit and change that so (hooked up) you can see 5 computers. Thanks for your views.
...... or you could jailbreak your iphone download a app called mywi and create your own wifi hotspot using your iphone 3g network that you can connect your computers to... i dont see a reason to pay $60 a month and $99 for the damn thing when i can do this for free on my iphone lol
What do you mean that you won't worry if there is 3G signal available? Aren't you using a cellular signal or in this case EVDO? It isn't like you are using a satellite signal and the signal would depend on your network's coverage.
@phototristan Using the USB cable and VZAccess Manager, you can use it for a connection to your main desktop. The Wifi is disabled while it is tethered though.
i just got this mifi from sprint. and i'm a over the road trucker and it works great and it work great on my PLAYSTATION 3 now i can play online anytime.
I think Verizon must have just put up a new antenna near the beach in Playa del Rey. My service is incredible now. The MiFi rules. Life is great. Women are positive and men are cool too.
me and my family uses the internet probably a total of 4 hours a day for web browsing (facebook, myspace, email) and i also watch youtube videos quite often. i also download probably 5 songs a week. would the 5gb plan be enough?
@miclegendx666 Their is a plan that will make it more flexible. The third option is purchasing this full price. After that, you can pay Verizon month-to-month and fluxuate from $59.99 to the lower price or stop paying until you need it again. Also, their is a $15 a day unlimited. Just like Verizon's unlimited access for a dollar or two a day for cell phone only users. I'd ask first, because my info is a year old.
can this work this work in brazil cause some parts of brazil there dont offer cable internet or dsl internet and i offtain go they and visite barzil from usa and i get bord so this would be a grate way to got my laptop online
thats my question, see i have unlimited mb use so i can exceed the 5 gbs but will this little thing break? i have a usb card and i use it alot and it works the same, i'm thinking of getting this so i can use it with my ps3 and my laptop and so 4th. but will like it mess up if i just have it plug in to the outlet or will it turn off or mess up????
LOL.. i've had my broadband for 3 years, i have an old plan where they offered unlimited mbs, i've used over 30gb's a month, that is not my question, i'm asking will this little thing last that longed connected to the outlet or will it mess up
yes i do, i bought this mifi and it works great! i can use it day and night because i have unlimited mb usuage which was offered back in 07. right now it is not offered which limits the usuage to 5gbs. i'm so happy! =)
Oh. I forgot you can connect up to 5 devices to it. I would rather get this than a 3g card because they are the same price a month. Thanks for replying.
I enjoy your videos Larry but this product I just don't get. First off the two green glowing power and signal indicators that were burning my retinas in your video, is there any way to dim them? I can't see people putting that thing in their pocket at night having a green glow emanating outward. Also $59.99/mo for 2 yrs 5GB limit/mo + $199.99 sounds WAY too expensive just for VZW EVDO which didn't look too fast in your video compared to free WiFi in SF. Your opinion, worth it for a traveler?
Sorry, I mean + $149.99 - $50 mail in rebate for the device itself. But to add to my previous post, this is CDMA so am I correct in thinking this will just work in the US where EVDO is available? That would also cut down the usefulness of it even more...
Correct, it's CDMA. I don't travel internationally so that isn't a concern for me. The LEDS don't look that bright in person. I agree the 5 gig cap. is not enough. I'm finding the speed very fast.
