Try Chit Chat Mobile and choose the "Mobile Broadband" plan for $49.99 a month and it includes LTE and 3G in addition to Wimax. You cab buy a used Sierra Wireless Tri-Fi hotspot on ebay. |

Are you sure about the LTE being available for non-phone connections? The only devices I'm seeing that are LTE capable on their list are phones. Both of the computer modems, both the Overdrive Pro and the USB Dongle, are Wimax-only. Yes, they offer the option of a BYOD, which would mean one can put in the MEID of a Tri-Fi or a MiFi perhaps. But it strikes me as odd that an LTE non-phone device like a Tri-Fi is not listed. |

Fascinating!!! In that case, it would appear that we finally have an unlimited Sprint LTE option!! I'll be giving them a call to see if there are any catches or strings attached. It almost seems too good to be true.
I confess I do note, with a little concern, that there are no TOS. |

I purchased the Sierra Wireless 4G Tri-Fi Hotspot from eBay, and wanted to ask how do I activate the product on the chit chat site? It only shows the Sierra Wireless Overdrive Hotspot. And is the $50 unlimited fast enough for gaming? |

It only shows the Sierra Wireless Overdrive Hotspot. And is the $50 unlimited fast enough for gaming? Choose "Already Have An Approved Device", then what I did was to the blank line just above the "A Customer Owned Device" and enter the ESN number. I guess you can choose the "A Customer Owned Device" from the drop down list too but I haven't tried that. The $50 (really $49.99) "Mobile Broadband"option includes LTE and it should be fast enough. Don't forget you need the ESN number on the device, once you remove the battery you can see it. |

Alright and once I activate it and pay with my credit card, the service will be on automatically or how would I use the connection? |

Once I activated and paid on the website I turned the device on and the device goes into the "Hands Free Activation" mode. That's when it gets it's MDN (like a cell number) and then it ready for the internet. |

You mean not compatible with ChitChatMobile? If so not surprising cause I tried to get my Netgear Zing activated with them and they couldn't do it even though they tried. The Sierra wireless Tri-Fi will work with them as that is what I'm using now. TPBroadband said he has a list of MVNO's that the MiFi and the Zing will work with but he hasn't published it yet. |

Ok so you're bound by contract and you can't release the list. That's understandable but your website lacks any sort of useful info to compare them to other providers and it doesn't even list prices. That doesn't inspire confidence in your company. |

»tbbroadband.us/extended- ··· ata.html So does that mean you pay monthly or for the full year and is there an ETF? I really would like to read some reviews about your service. If you have any links that would be great. One thing I would like to know is if you have full access to the Sprint network as an MVNO and is the service fully 100% on the Sprint network with no handoff to local cable providers at any point/ |
