Cellular Internet Homebase, AT&T and the APN
For those who don't have fiber or cable, and are disappointed with DSL this is the device for you. It uses cellular services to give you telephone and internet access. This is an AT&T device but it works fine with my Consumer Cellular connection. There is one little hiccup that has to be overcome. When the SIM is inserted in the device and activated, only the cell phone service will be activated. The user will have to contact technical support for their provider and get and Access Point Name, referred to as the APN. Each carrier has a unique APN and it must be entered into the settings-network-apn setting. To do this first create a new profile. The device will come configured to ATT at the default. Create the new profile, Enter the APN, save it, then set it as the default. This should do it for internet access. Good Luck! It may take a little manipulation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Better than a ZTE Z700.
I replaced a ZTE Z700 with it. It does require a different sim, so that required a pretty painless trip to a AT&T store. So far, transfers are better, and connectivity is more consistent.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I’m impressed
We steam off of it and everything. The only issue is that I don’t have the best att service in my house so if it’s really overcast outside it seams to kick the kids off of their zoom classes. To be fair it’s 3 Children in 3 different classes at the same time. It works great with RokuVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Some tips from a happy customer
Works fine, but needs external antennas for better signal out in the country where the tower is a long way off. It has connections for antennas, so I just need to buy a set. Has excellent phone volume, and has no trouble with T-mobile. Don't let anybody tell you it will use data to talk on the phone. It won't. It talks with talk time and it only uses data when you browse the internet.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

General Product is good just not this specific one
I have one of these and it works quite well. I was trying to buy a "back-up" to swap in and out with mine at home and thought this one would do. However, it was not unlocked like the description stated. I would recommend the product in general, just be careful buying from third parties.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

IFWA 40 Home Internet
IFWA 40 Home Wireless Internet - Very happy with my new internet hotspot. I've only had it about 3 weeks, but so far it is great. I can use my phone, my computer and printer. I know it can be used with my TV but I haven't gone that route yet. I would recommend this product.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great product
works as advertised Be careful, most carrier will not allow to put a SIM card linked to a phone in the router. They have specific plan for "internet access point" such as this router.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Router for rural places
If you can't get internet to your rural place. This is a great option and just add an outside lte antenna or a booster and you'll be set.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Use a cell provider for portable internet.
Took a little bit to understand how to activate my ATT data account on it (check Youtube videos), but once I got there has worked wonderfully! It's a great solution when you need temporary internet. The speed is not as fast as traditional internet providers but is adequate for streaming TV.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
