    Box is sorta easy to set up just read and follow directions. Wifi lasts about 2 weeks with the 40gb card at average use. Good quality wifi. No cutting in and out. Would recommend.

    Pretty sure you don’t actually get 40GB of data plus there was a lot of confusion and the store acting like they had a hotspot with the wrong serial number saying it wouldn’t work unless they changed something. Not impressed at all. Wish I had my money back on this one!

    Don’t buy this online, I ordered this in late February/early March and still am not able to redeem my code to get my sim activated. Poor service aswell, chatted/ chatting with support and they can’t even activate the sim nor give me my refund for the product I paid for. Will never purchase another.

    Zero!!! When you buy a hotspot and gig card Bestbuy automatically activates the chip. The only way you can find out if your hotspot works is to use your card. The hotspot didnot work at our property even though many other property owners have T-Mobile hotspots. When I tried to return both the card and hotspot they said they can’t refund an activated chip… which they activated and the hotspot won’t work without!!! This is quite a racket. Nowhere did it indicate it was automatically activated!! It did say it was non-refundable but not in any context. So you can by a hotspot but if it doesn’t work you are out 49.99 because you have to have a prepaid card to see if the hotspot works!!!

    Could not use becasue the mobile hot spots would never work. Simple Mobile apologized and said the activation codes must have a problem. I bought two hot spots and neither one would connect. Do not get devices from Simple Mobile.
