I haven't looked at it. I'll go check.
Don't see anything but the menu is not that friendly. |

I downloaded it, went smoothly. Maybe it addresses the issues some have had with disconnects. |

How did you get to it on the menu? I didn't see any reference to it. |

When I logged into my hotspot tonight, the update had already been downloaded. I clicked on the "Install Now" and it proceeded fine, initially. When I got the message that it was powering down to complete the install ( on the web interface), it got hung up. It was then in an endless loop of power down and up. When I pulled the charger, it was able to power down but still would not complete power up. I eventually pulled the battery for a minute and then it was able to complete power up. It seems ok now. |

Here's what the update does....
+ Data meter added for users to check data usage. + VPN drops associated with with Cisco AnyConnect IPSec v2, and dormancy issues have been resolved. + Connections to certain websites are now available. + Language on Web UI associated with SIM lock has been updated. + Model number reference on About Jetpack and on Web UI has been changed to 4620L/LE.
Looks like you can also block connected users and a few other changes. |

Checked after seeing your post, sure enough the update was there and I just finished installing, so far no problems, no hangups, we'll see going forward. Thanks for the heads up. |

I just went into the device and looked under software updates. "No Software Updates Available" was the result. |

Great, I was hoping these issues would be addressed. Tell us about the new data usage meter! |

Must have auto updated. It is a mandatory update. |

If you are with Millenicom the data monitor will just say "unlimited" |

I don't think anything will appear for data usage since they are listed as unlimited. Best bet is to check usage on the vz site. |

Mine is 3.20.16 and shows daily usage. At least I can keep track by keeping a log. I am on Millenicom. Mobile Network/More shows the usage since midnight. |

Why go to all that trouble. Just get it from the Verizon website.

YAY, finally. I want real-time info from the device itself, not the delayed crap from the VZW site. |

If you are close enough to the cap that you need real time then you have to really be careful. A few hours delay is fine for me as evidenced by my usage. |

So how do I get setup with the VZ site? The delay is not a problem for me but I would like to know the overall for the month instead of trying to remember what I used. Thanks |

Get the phone number from your device. Go to VerizonWireless.com and set up an account with a name and password. You can then access your usage info. |

You sure it's fine to trust the VZW site when their data calculating can be flawed? I compared my usage to what Millenicom measured earlier in the week. I had nearly 15 GB of usage at that time, while the site claimed I used over 17 GB. |
