Alcatel Link Zone 4G LTE Global MW41NF-2AOFUS1 Mobile WiFi Hotspot Factory Unlocked GSM Up to 15 WiFi Users USA Latin Caribbean Europe MW41NF

Works fine, no problems

I had an existing Tmobile sim card which worked when I inserted it. It however used up all my hotspot data associated with the account, It did not use the unlimited cellular data which was the whole reason for purchasing this device.The power switch is also the factory reset button , so in the time I was testing the device, I ended up resetting the stored settings back to factory setting, several times There is no display as to whether the device is on and pressing the power button too easily resets the device to factory settings. This was a real annoyance and I wouldn't recommend this device.

This hotspot has been working without problems for me. It is small, it is lightweight and it catches signal well.The web interface is in Spanish, but with high school Spanish and knowing the typical web interface of a hotspot, one can understand enough to configure it. In the APN configuration section, there is an entry field for a phone number, which is "*99#" in the default profile, and that also works for my SIM (an MVNO on the AT&T network). I do not know why they felt the need to make that a required configuration field. Don't let that derail you!The hotspot comes with paper instructions in English, which are helpful, in particularly for turning the things on and off (hold the left side of the button for 3 seconds), for knowing where to find the wifi password, and for the default web interface password.

there was not any instructions in the box however Set up was very easy.. finding the network was easy..,.. finding the password for the network was the difficult part. it is found the device marked as "KEY"...... sigh... that was the timewaster.works like a charm NOW!

This is the Alactel MW41NF hotspot. I wanted a GSM hotspot and this one works. Yes, as others have said, the instructions are in Spanish. That wasn't a problem for me, but I can see how others might be concerned. If it's any help, the instructions are basic and straightforward and the hotspot is easy to understand. The configuration is handled by an embedded web page at 192.168.1.1 when you're connected to the hotspot by WiFi. That web page first appears in Spanish but you can change the language to English. A note: trying to use the SIM operations to disable the need broke my first Mint SIM card and there's no need anyway. I think the problem is a Mint problem so your mileage may vary.Overall, I'm very happy with this hotspot.

Seller said this was a generic unti.Received Keepgo "Lifetime Mobile Travel WiFi Hotspot" which retails for $99.While the price was the same and shipping was fast via AMZ, the sale was made under false pretenses. :/I needed this urgently for someone who was starting online learning yesterday and it was my only option. It provides the hotspot functionality but without management access if absolutely anything goes wrong it is a paperweight. If it had been for personal use I would have returned it immediately.Interacting with the software / config (the problem):1. the hotspot is unlocked so you can use you own sim which was expected. I used a T-Mobile SIM and was regularly getting 20Mbps. worked fine with a laptop / ipad2. the device is hard-coded to keepgo service for management2a. the device uses a 'captive portal' that bypasses device settings; you cannot manage any of the device settings such as changing the SSID or wifi password. Attempted to connect via IP are also denied.3. you have to rely on the simplistic status lights for status: cellular, battery, messages, etc have no detail - just on or off.4. Since I can't get to the management interface I have no idea what the battery or feature set is.5. The password is super short as well and I can't change it.Device itself (fine)1. The alcatel device is small and portable. The back cover is flimsy, but I won't blame the seller for that.2. It's a small, portable, if simplistic, device.3. installing the battery + micro sim is simple and straight forward.3a. You will need an adapter if you have a standard nano-sim. Just buy a cell phone service setup kit at a corner store for $1 and rip out the adapter.If it had received the generic device that I could use with the Alcatel app I would have few, if any complaints for the price. Probably a 4-5 star device (for the price) if you get a generic one.

I bought this Mobile WiFi Hotspot for my daughter who traveled to Sierra Leone, West Africa couple of days ago, she has been on the phone with me all the time. All you will need to do is to get the SIMCARD of your destination Country, put it in then, You will be ready for your calls . I will definitely recommend it to all my friends and family. It’s so good that this is my 3rd one. If you are traveling, please buy this to make communication easier

I've had issues since about a month after purchase. The device freezes frequently and the internet access just ends. Customer service was not very helpful and told me to delete my comment. Which I'm pretty sure they deleted it because I don't see it any more. Spend your money with a different seller. The first device I had from TMoblie had no issues and quit working after about 3 years of constant use.
