Re: MiFi 2200 Wireless Hotspot

I have the same exact issues as you do. I drop into EVDO 1X and don't come out without a reboot. I also noticed this happens more often "on charge" with the wall charger. Some other weird things:

I go into roaming and won't come out without a reboot.

Signal indicates full bars yet I drop to 1X.

2nd unit, first had battery issues.

3rd unit, charger won't ever fill battery while in use.

There are a lot of firmware bugs. I feel at times like the first time I used VISTA. BUGGY!!!!

And then there is the issue of support. No web support (the links haven't been enabled), no chat support (they don't know about it) and it takes about 6 calls to get a US call center (instead of Monterey Mexico, or the Caribbean) where they actually know what a MIFI 2200 is.

The product manager of the MIFI 2200 for Sprint should be on line in the Unemployment office.

Going for my 4th unit today. It's definitely a result of poor firmware and no testing. I beta tested for Verizon on the same unit. The Sprint version of the currently shipping firmware appears to be worse than the original alpha version of the Verizon firmware from 4 months back.

SHAME ON SPRINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
