Will this connect to a wireless hotspot (Verizon Jetpack)? My Jetpack requires a password to connect (one time only). How would I enter PW?

I really don't know. Why not contact the company direct? They see small and responsive and I really like the unit. Paul

Yes this will connect to your Verizon Jetpack with no problem. During configuration your Elertus sensor will allow you to enter the password for your Hotspot. You can view the set up video here http://idealsciences.com/products/elertus/video/

Thanks very much, that worked for me (Linksys router and Xoom with Android 3.1). Mine is WPA but the problem was that I was using the password I made up, when the Android 3.1 OS wanted the security key (many characters).

When this tablet initially came out a year ago I read several reviews that mentioned this issue, however, software and driver updates have eliminated this issue. Personally, I have never had an issue connecting to a mobile hotspot unless it was restricted to "only allowed devices" in which case the tablet's MAC address must be provided to the hot spot device in order to connect.

Well, your question is answered by your last sentence. If you don't have a Verizon account the device won't work until you buy into one of their phone or data plans. Your Jetpack only works when it has a Verizon phone number assigned in an active Verizon account. (Although the Jetpack uses a phone number to operate, it can't be used to make or receive phone calls. It can only be used to exchange data wirelessly.) Good luck.

I just configured it for that phone and it worked fine. I never got WPS to work, so I had to hook it to my computer to assign the wifi settings. Make sure and choose the "phone" network on your PBX box, not the "data" network. At least for my cisco PBX.

Yes it does automatically connects to your wifi but if you have a security password you have to enter it in the wifi settings

The unit has a SIM card slot and it is locked to a Verizon service or a Verizon reseller. More information is at http://www.zteusa.com/verizon-jetpacktm-890l.html

You have to connect to wifi and most wifi connections you need the password

You can use a Verizon prepaid option, or you can add it to your Verizon phone account if you use Verizon wireless. What I do is: I have a Verizon unlimited plan with 3 gi's data plan, when I need to use my jetpack, I use the sim card from one of my Verizon Samsung galaxy 4g phones. I place it into the jetpack and use my phone data. I don't use mine often so I don't use a lot of data each month. However if I did need to use it more, I can always go online to Verizon wireless site and increase my data plan. My jetpack work great. Hope this help you.

Go to the settings mode and go to join networks & click yes. If it ask for a password put it in

Yes it has WPS, so you don't need to remember your password, and the stranger next door with an app on thier smartphone wont need to know your password either!

From the main screen press the left "menu" button &gt; scroll to wifi and press &gt; the phone will scan for available wifi and show a list &gt; if you have an open network just press the "connect" or center button. With hotspots like McDonalds you will need to check the "agree" box and the "connect" box to connect. If the wifi network is secure you will see a screen to enter info when you press the center button. It should have all the info to connect except the password. If some info is missing you will need to know that info and enter it in the appropriate box. Scroll down the screen until you find the box to enter the password. Once enter the password you will see either the center button or the left button with "save" above it. Press this and you should be connected. My home secured wifi network connects automatically when I turn on the wifi manually without needing to enter the password after I initially set it up with my password. Not sure about other secure networks you may connect to. No extra hardware on the phone is needed. Wifi will time out and need to be restarted and also will need to be restarted if you turn the phone off. The phone connects to most hotspots, but I have had a problem with a few that simply would not connect. Starbucks and McDonalds have been no problem. Maybe not a perfect system, but fairly simple after you do it the first time and get the fell for it. Hope this is a help.

I'll give it a shot, but I'm not sure about finding the router's advanced settings since it was given to us by the phone company. There's no software or anything. I guess I could call Verizon for help if I can't find where to enter the PIN. I'll also give the unit some time to connect. Thanks for your input.

You can set it up without any support. If you have AT&T; all you have to do is set this modemto bridge mode and that is it. In your router that is where you set to pppoe with your user name and password.

John,I couldn't get mine to connect so I called Samsung and was told that my router's security setting must be WPA2. My router couldn't do that so I replaced it. The new router worked well 1st time. The default password was 8 numbers but I later changed it to 10 characters. It worked both ways.Paul

Absolutely. Go under "Settings" on your phone and find the Wi-Fi tab. Find your network, if it's password protected, type in your password and you will now be connected.

Well I'm not there so it's hard to make a relatable assessment, but my guess would be to connect to your router with your password then access the www.routerlogin.net web page. Click on the internet tab then select the hotspot you wish to connect to. Then hopefully that webpage will pop up when you open a browser and you can go from there using the info the hotel gave you I guess. By the way if you're able to make it to the page I just described, which may not be the case, I would highly recommend disabling the "Extend my current wireless router's range" option as that would make all of your devices connected to the router visible to the rest of the unsecured network.
