That does not work! for router

Should have listened to all the negative reviews. I've been on the phone with T-Mobile for 3 hours so that the device recognizes the SIM card. All he said was an invalid SIM card bought from a T-Mobile store and set to a hotspot plan. Their explanation was that the IMEI number is being returned because the device is partially compatible, whatever that means. Anyway, this device didn't work with tmobile sim card and data only with the data plan offered. I want many others to say stay away from…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions

Cellular signal is weak and battery life is even worse.

You can actually see the battery usage when you look at it. It only takes about 45 seconds to drain 1%. The battery is completely discharged within a short time. Cellular signal is weak even in a heavy metropolitan area. The app is terrible. I recommend using your browser to sign in and set up. If you don't know how to do this, just type 192.168.1.1 in your browser's address bar and then enter admin as the password.

Pros
  • Good for many
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Solid device! best in routers

This is a fairly simple router that does what it says it does. The only thing that bothers me is that all the instructions are in Spanish and there was no way to activate my sim card directly. I had to activate on the phone and then transfer the SIM card to the router.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • The list will be long.

DO NOT BUY! DESCRIPTION IS WRONG!

This device is obsolete! This will NOT work with Cricket, T-Mobile, or Metro! The seller is lying! Cricket rejects this device as it is "Bring your own device" and the Metro/T-Mobile I already have in service states that the device is outdated and not working in their service. I had to buy Alcatel's next generation METRO/T-MOBILE mobile hotspot, which I did.

Pros
  • Looking forward to it
Cons
  • Not everything is as good as it says

ATTENTION TO THE BUYER. DO NOT BUY

July 4, 2021 I have been using Alcatel routers successfully in Africa and Europe for many years; So I'm very familiar with how they work. I regret buying this Alcatel Linkzone 2021 router. This product has been used, the battery only lasted 3.5 hours AND this router will NOT work in Los Angeles with a T-Mobile (USA) data card. Also, this product lacks proper accessories (no adapter and cable is only a few inches long) and written instructions. BEWARE.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Some cons
