Can it connect the internet at a public hotspot? How about the speed, slow or good enough? Can it accept pay as to go SIM card such as from T-Mobile?

Yes you are able to connect to wife. The speed is okay if you are connected to fast internet, but loading documents and especially pdf's take a long time. It will accept any sim card - I currently use simple mobile (run on the t-mobile network).

Yes it can connect to hotspots. The speed is good enough. I'm currently using it with pay as you go, SIMPLE MOBILE.

Yes, it work with T-Mobile and it's pretty fast. https://twitter.com/jlinnation/status/530986477350432768However, don't expect to do any major uploading / downloading with it. T-mobile restricts you and will cut your connection on purpose if you try to download or upload a certain amounts of MB. I was cut off at about 50mb.

I have one and it works great. However, there is a hitch. Last I heard T-Mobil no longer accepts new customers. There are two SIM cards inside. Each can be associated with a number. When I bought mine, I was assigned a number. I can use it anywhere in the country that I can plug into the internet. I'd suggest you contact T-Mobile. If they won't set the service up for you there is also Vontage which works the same way, but at a slightly higher price. 2 notes: if the router(the device in the photo) stops working, you will need to buy another. It's the same with Vontage. It cost me about $60, not to mention the time and effort. The vontage one works with fax machines, the T-Mobile one doesn't. I have one and it works great.

Unless your city has free public wi-fi, this is not going to work for wi-fi alone unless you're staying within the reach of a wireless modem. Which most home wireless routers might reach half way down the block, depending on how good of a router it is. But if you're asking if it has wifi capabilities..it most definitely does, it's just limited by having an actual wifi signal. And the 35/month service is good too. I stream music on rhapsody and never have any buffering issues on the cellular network.

No it will work on nearly any network though, I get LTE though t-mobile with it for example. this particular model never made it state side i think. You are better off going to a t-mobile store and buying the newest model from them that did make it state side, that is unless you travel a lot and like the option of using a local carrier like I do.

Yes; you can use it as a stand-alone internet device using WiFi.Also, I was able to use T-Mobiles $30 unlimited text/internet sim card on a Nexus One that was initially supposed to be used on AT&T;'s network...

I've got it on the ATT work, using a GO pay as you go phone. It will work on ATT towers but I'm not sure about T mobile. You could try it. h20 has the lowest pay as you go plan.

I use it with a Verizon Samsung S4 with Usb tether. However the wireless hotspot option with 4g is much faster alone than with the Mofi. they've tried to help and told me it's not possible but Even after a firmware update it's still not as fast. If you only have 3g than try it. If not activate the hotspot on 4g you're better off in my opinion.

Yes! In order to access the internet, you have to have an unlocked sims-card! It isn't a good phone tho, so I wouldn't recommended no one to buy it!

Dc urbanite said he was able to use this phone on consumer cellular service, I have not been able to get internet working on the service even with consumer cellular help when not on my wifi network. The phone works, but not mobile internet. If anyone has been able to get the the Internet working I would love to know how!

Yes, 4G LTE and very fast in areas where T-Mobile signal is good. Downside to this phone: Only 1Gig of memory on the device and it's pre-loaded with apps, so you can't add much at all. Even updating apps is a pain at times. I added a 32Gig miniSD but many apps can't be moved/added there. Good cheap phone otherwise.

One of the things that attracted me to it was the ability to host 2 SIMS. I found that only AT&T/T-Mobile offered SIMS without attaching a phone to it. It worked as a phone.. sorta. It could not transfer data via the data link. I called AT&T service via the tablet and found that the servers didn't understand how to transfer it because they don't have a profile for it. So, I suppose it will act as a phone anywhere, it may not be able to connect the world wide web...

It does not support LTE but does support the Hi Speed T-Mobile version of 4G known as HSPA. I'm in one of these T-Mobile areas and can get close to 20mbps downloads. I believe ATT network 4G uses LTE and that is not supported.

Works great for me on t-mobile! I'm consistently getting HSPA+ speeds around 21 mbps. I do live downtown though so I can't attest to more rural areas but then that's always been a weakness for T-mobile

Kind of late to reply, but I use my E63 with T-Mobile To Go. Works fine, and I get EDGE speeds through t-zones. Limited sites, but you can buy a daypass for $1.49 to get the full web for 24 hours.

Yes, it supports 802.11b/g wireless internet, so you can connect to just about any wireless hotspot out there.

Yes, this phone has a hotspot for Wifi. You can connect to any open hotspot for Wifi very easily. It scans your local perimeter for the Wifi hotspot that are strong to connect with.
