great review and well edited, just subbed. thanks !
Thanks learned a lot about hot spots.
Good review, thanks. Getting ready to buy one
The actual Wi-Fi output of it sucks totally. Doesn’t come close to covering my 2200 square foot home.
Thank you, excellent review, helped a lot.
Great review, thank you so much.
Thank you
Does anyone know what is the best network technology to use?
They don’t want us to have it as home internet cause it’s cheaper lol
Ive been using a Verizon MiFi for 3 years now but I got on a unlimited plan that has truly unlimited deta that doesn't throttle. But my speed's are going down to 5mbs and I think it's because the MiFi is 3 years old so I'm going to try taking my SIM card and shoving it into a newer model MiFi for much faster speed's. Hope verizon doesn't notice. XD
@@Eris_Greyrat I'm surprised you're getting 5. Most I get is 350kbs and that's using 3G. Mines unlimited as well but the fact we're paying 50$ for speeds like that is insane and it's such a scam, for 50$ we should be getting 10mbs no throttle. I know people who pay less and get much faster even with a throttle. It's just funny to me how they'll give us those speeds knowing it can go as high as 30mbps once a month and ofc that being 15gb which is a legit spec of dust if not smaller.
@@Eris_Greyrat but I mean if there's a sim card that you could interest me in Id be more than willing to pay for it cause this company is a joke.
@@Eris_Greyrat what do you use it for? I’m looking to use it for a time. But people say the throttle is really bad.
What is the model number of that hotspot jetpack thingy?
thumbs up for the intro alone. RIP to my ear buds.
Darn, I had the older version but didn’t know that it’s supposed to slow down. I thought it was malfunctioning.🤔
I have had one of these units for over a year now but it does not cover the entire house (1400 square feet frame house, no brick) and I'm only getting 2 bars signal strength. Is there any way to use this or link it with Mesh WiFi ? I don't have a modem or router with this 8800L, I use it as a stand alone system.
Hiw much you pay per month
I may need to use this cause my laptop need to require internet connection, so I may need to get the mifi thing to use it for traveling
Do you have to have an account its prepaid correct all's I have to do is anonymously activate the Sim on the device correct?
will it work with any SIM carrier?
Just ordered me one today from Verizon wireless i travel sometimes i need Wi-Fi I hope this Jetpack helps
Good review. I have Verizon mifi 8000L for 3 years and it worked great. I live in a big city and recently moved to a new apt in same city, Verizon has a good coverage here. When I moved to this new apt, I noted that mifi started showing the sign "Network Extender" with full signal and worked great. However, after 2 months that "Network Extender" disappeared and the signal is showing only 1 bar and a very slow connection. First I thought there is something wrong with mifi but interestingly I noticed the same issue on my verison phone with very slow data connection LTE (before it used to show 5G in my old apt). Called verison but they couldn't help. I have an un limited plan. Not sure if its a tower or throttling issue?
Mines doesn’t it keeps turning off and not connecting
I have the same problem
Do you need a Verizon plan contract with them in order for this to work
It sucks when u can’t get Comcast or any other company to come out where I live to get high speed internet. So they should do like T-Mobile and allow u to get so much gb.
So would this work for a 9-6pm work day on my computer? I’m so done with Wi-Fi! Please help.
It can, but Verizon will throttle your speed when you reach your data limit.
Update?
How do you make it faster back I live in a place that can’t get wifi and I play a game name rust and it’s so slow
You may be getting throttled.
Good review. I bought a used 7700L which is identical as far as I can see. Mine came with a swollen battery so I replaced it and after 6 months of use I'm having to replace the battery again. It still works but the bulging battery won't stay charged long and back cover won't fit. Like you I use mine as a backup at home and once a week I use it to broadcast a zoom mtg from an address with no internet. Wondering if the newer model has battery issues.
So far mine has been great. Hopefully it stays that way.
Do I need an internet company to use it? I have a house with no Internet and would like to use it for internet for 3 months at a time in that house.
@@lydiabalizet3838 Yes, it's a Verizon device and needs to be activated with a Verizon sim card to Verizon Wireless service.
Be careful if connecting an external antenna onto the 8800l, those push-on jacks are very tight and so on mine by pushing too hard _the internal circuit board got shifted upwards_ , eliminating the power switch's spacing. Totally broken unit. 🤬🤬
I fixed mine by banging the unit downward to reposition the circuit board. Whewww!. 😁👍
Feel that little click when you press the power button? If it's not there, it's impossible to turn the unit off. It's always making contact if the board is shifted upward. Mine kept rebooting 100 times.
Now I use some Cramolin spray and/or just twist the connectors on real gently/carefully.
Thanks for sharing
Just moved business into a new steel structure warehouse, tried to wifi hopot off my phone and it was terrible, would this be a great solution to use for my laptop? And if my phone signal is weak will it still provide decent speeds?
If your phone signal is weak this will be no better. It needs a decent cell signal as well.
Mine is just terible. It won’t work on my switch or my Xbox after a week of using it it slows down so fast then it becomes unplayable I would not buy this for gaming.!
Love the intro
What about if I play fifa21 online
So what's the difference in having this and having an Unlimited plan of data on your phone, we have a camping trip coming up?
There is no unlimited on hot spot you can only add up to 15 MB a month on your phone that equals up to 8 hours of streaming movies
If it’s asking for WiFi I’d and password… do you need internet already to use it?
The password is in the Verizon jet pack and you need a Verizon contract and be in there coverage zone
Can you use this on the go in your vehicle for wifi
I don't see why not
My van with tv and solar and the mifi. Love it.
How do I actually pay for the data? I’m connected to the device but I don’t know how to buy data. I took it to a Verizon store and they didn’t know how
Hello, did you ever find out how to get this thing working I'm having trouble also. Do I need a Verizon contract with them too ?
IJust bought this. Since I already have a Verizon number they made the JetPack a second line with hot spot plan. Mine cost $60/mo for 100GB. We will see how good it is.
Have you had issues with the device shutting down by itself when the screen has been off for awhile ?
No, I haven't. It's been working just fine. I wonder if there is a way to update the firmware.
Can it work also in African countries??
do u think it’s good for gaming
Can this be used to play games on line like cod
Yes
Does this have better signal vs the phone
i was looking to buy one for streaming & gaming because my home wifi isn’t so good any suggestions
cant use for streaming or else you will use up your GB
Just got one of these on ebay for around $24 bucks Great little device . Added it to my verizon account .I get around 105mb download speeds .
Yes, I still use mine all the time.
Can you use a Amazon fire stick with this hotspot
Yes
Very yes! I have mine in my van with my firstick and tv.
What it work for a dj gig for 4 hours no problem you think???
As long as you got reception, then yes.
Dose this work for gaming?
it will but after 9 months you will experience lag. I would suggest buying 2-3 just incase you use up your GB per month. I play Val with it and one game ill be 40 ping and next im 100. I just dont understand why it lags
I wanted to know if it works on PlayStation 4 fortnite
Yes, it will but the data is not unlimited.
Does tDoes this device have a slot for a SIM card?
Yes, inside under the battery.
Just for clarity the 8800l cannot use 5g signals but it does 4G really well. A useful wifi feature is both personal and guest wifi signals with different passwords. If you are going travelling make sure that you have an unlocked model.
Hypothetical Question 👀
If I didn't have a working phone, and wanted to use this to keep my phone working when I'm outside of the house, would it do??
You could use it to connect to the internet, maybe even WiFi calls too.
Have you tried playing online on ps5 or ps4 with this ?
No, but my daughter plays Fortnite on her Nintendo switch, works fine unless they throttle you.
@@BazzarRepairs what you mean throttle??
i bought one, but i dont know how to set up a plan
I got the $45 per-month plan.
The guys at the Verizon store helped me with it. Works perfectly.
Does anyone have 5 bars mines goes to 4 n 3
Putting it next to a window may help, [glass is invisible to most RF signals].
Thx for the video - but why does my device say "No internet access. This jetpack needs data plan." I have unliminted on Verizon. This took some time to figure out...so annoying.
Sorry to hear that.
I bought mine in person at a [main] Verizon store, they were quite helpful for setting it all up.
How did you fix it cause mines showing that now lik random times it’ll jus say no data or no internet access
Is this good for a small room with no internet
Yes, as long as you have cell service.
The one thing I don't like about the 8800L. I set this up in my RV, and have a Ring camera linked to it. The MiFi works great most of the time. I can pull up my camera and make sure everything is ok at the RV. However, there is at least once a month Verizon checks in on my MiFi. Usually the first day of my billing cycle. When that happens any device I have attached to the MiFi magically disconnects. A reboot of the MiFi will normally restore the camera and anything else I have connected to it, but if I'm a hundred miles away at another project, there is no way to reboot the MiFi remotely. It would be a great feature if I was able to troubleshoot the device from a distance and then be able to reboot the MiFi instead of having to manually stand over it.
Is this good for gaming on PlayStation?
Can I connect a wired 'cat5'16ch DVR to this hotspot? What type of adapter/bridge should I look for? Or do they [verizon etc] make another model I could simply plug the cat5 into?
Can use a Amazon fire stick with this hotspot
?? Good question
I have both in my fan on my solar. And it works great.
Do we have to pay the jetpack WiFi for the data
Yes you do
I pay Verizon to add this to my plan just like the rest of the mobile devices on the family plan. Would be $20 per month for the plan it's on but it's discounted to $10 per month with the higher tier plan my phone is on.
@@stevehmi I only saw a 90$ month cheapest option. Maybe I didnt look in the right spot. And how much data would you use a month if you ran a smart tv and xbox and laptop off of it do you think
@@notnickDPT
Does that amount include the purchase of the mifi device or do you already have one? I bought a used one and it's already paid for so the Verizon amount is just for the service.
Gaming please do a video on gaming
How much you pay a month?
I use 15gig at $20 a month, the over 100gig (can't remember exectly how many gigs ) at 80 a month, their highest.
@@waaazupd1948 does it work after u meet the limit?
@YourManzCam‼️ yea but it's slow, I canceled though
I bought one of these and tried 3 different carriers but never got it to work.
I can’t use it because I need 400 gb a month and Verizon won’t give me that much. It starts to slow down can’t watch movies. It’s emergency use only. Not for a everyday user cause you will run out.
7$ a month for hotspot for my dash camceras for my car? So i can monitor from home 😀😀 is this how i can do it is by getting mifi
i thought that was a toy computer for a sec lol
Does it use 2.4 or 5 GHz?
You can use both with this device
Can you play Xbox on this
Yea but when run out it not very good
I hope I could use this to replace my internet because uhhh they took DLS completely out of our area without replacing it with any other options. They have fiber optics right under my yard but its not connected because screw us I guess. They don't plan to do anything for us for who knows how long. I've been using my mobile hotspot for two years and just last year, it's become nearly unusable during the daytime. I hope that this device will at least let me game during the day, everyday, because it really sucks only being able to spend time with my online friends after 11PM.
It acts the same as your mobile hotspot. One you hit the primary data they will bog you down to 600kbs unless you live in the middle of nowhere then you maybe ok if you are the only one using it.
Just op
Hello. Can you watch television on your computer using one of these? Also, Can I use my Android phone with this? I have a TracFone. Thank you if you see this message.
Yes, you can but they will throttle you when you reach your data limit.
w intro 😂
Just ordered one of these $20 a month for unlimited data. Hopefully it's worth it
Is it worth ?
@@Dssrsantos yea
20 a month for unlimited sheesh bro I’m stuck with a local WiFi and it gives me speeds of like 10 mbps for gaming I need to use my hotspot but it only gives me 15 gigs of fast data where did I get it bro and what are the speeds U get
@@RDZ770 if you're using this for gaming forget about it. I was stuck in a hotel for 2 weeks and I guess the signal this thing was putting out wasn't strong enough
@@Akron2PDX i get like 70 ping with my own hotspot but is it like super bad
Why you look so tired
The actual Wi-Fi output of this unit flat out sucks. I have a 2200 aqua foot house and it doesn’t even come close to covering it. Not even close. Junk.
Only get 15 gigs that is gone every single month to update only jet pack can not use for anything other than update jet pack. Verizon said 15 gig not a lot yes should be all used up in under 15 min to update their product. Can not use at all not from day one and unable to purchase additional gigs.
I have the same problem. I hadn’t used mine in over a year. It ate all 40 go of my plan. Think I will get rid of my jet pack and just us my phone as the hot spot.
This guy must be on something. "Take is down a notch, Scotty!"
I use those jetpacks for gaming
Was it good ?
@@Plzsaydasully It was really good
@@danielcandelaria6331 I’m tryna stream madden on PS5
