$20 Unlimited Stand-Alone LTE Hotspot through AT&T

After reading these incredible reviews I immediately went onto the ATT site and ordered on 2 year contract the $20 unlimited data plan (i feared they would discontinue this service and the contract seems to lock in this service for two years at least, grandfathering me in). So far so good. I filled out the credit information at that time. Upon activation is there another process of verification? Or is the pain already over?

 

Well, I got my ZTE Mobley today from AT&T.

My device came already activated and ready to use. The paperwork came with return labels and said I had a 14 days to return it if I wanted to.

I just plugged the device into the car and started the engine and let the car run for at least 30 seconds. Then I turned the car engine off.
The device showed two green led lights which means the wifi is working.

After that you just log in to the devices you want to use. The ZTE Mobley comes with a wifi password it you want to use it. I logged my TV in and my desktop in.

Now I don't have an a/c adapter yet. My car is parked in an attached garage where I live. My smart TV is 30 feet from the ZTE Mobley thats plugged into my car in the garage. I am getting 4/5 bars on the TV and am able to stream Netflix.

The desktop is 40 feet away from the garage, and I get 3/5 bars and the desktop wifi works just fine.

The car doesn't have to be running. You don't even need to have the key in it. The ZTE Mobley automatically goes off in about 30 minutes. But you can go to Settings and change the time off to one hour, or two hours or change it where it never goes off. It seems to draw very little power from the car battery.

It's just been one day, but I am real happy with it. I'll be getting an a/c adapter soon.

 

That. Is. Awesome. Thanks for the feedback. I recieved mine in the mail and I will pick it up today.

 

I ended up sending the first one I got off ebay back, never did get it working. Sent this to the seller and ebay..


Ordered on from at&t now that they were back in stock. Not sure about the shipping though

Been in IL since last night but was changed to arrive today lol (didn't happen). If I don't get it by tomorrow then I going to go with the idea that I'm not supposed to watch porn and surf 4chan while on the road

 

Just not in an unlimited capacity. Moderation is the key.

 

@lexmack I've read that too. I didn't buy it from that fella but I did get it off ebay so the person I got it from might have and then marked it up. I wanted to get it from at&t or best buy but I think best buy stopped selling them and att was out of stock for quite awhile.

I got the att mobley delivered today and it works fine. yay!

 

Thats Pretty Nifty right now...im paying $25 a month for unlimited high speed data Hotspot on my phone.I like this idea of a stand alone device better

 

2 side notes

1. I would suggest getting the USB mobley ac adapter


Then you have the option to use cig light, inverter and you can even just plug it into you laptop and use the battery from it when you have no power source!

2. If best buy gets them again I'm buying 5 of them because when they are out of stock
