Product Description

We are glad to present the AT&T ZTE Velocity 4G LTE MF985 with Evdo-Link bundle, which includes a AT&T SIM card to help you save time during activation.

Please note that we sell devices for accessing the mobile internet. Mobile internet is not free, and you need to consider a suitable tariff plan, just as you would do for your phone. Mobile internet is generally less affordable than wired internet and rarely offers truly unlimited data, so only consider this device if you require mobile, secure internet access and can afford a hotspot data line. Therefore, carefully review the operator's hotspot rates, as these may differ from phone rates in terms of cost and the amount of included data. Review the rates and decide if you can afford the tariff before considering this hotspot. This MiFi hotspot is designed to work on AT&T networks, but it is unlocked and can be used with North and South American operators, but you must change APN manually.

AT&T offers various plans. For existing AT&T line holders, plans start from: $55/month with 50 GB | $90/month with 100 GB. New customers will find higher rates. It's best to confirm current rates directly with a AT&T operator.

People buy this device for AT&T because it was made by the manufacturer for AT&T, and it has become a popular device.

  • Versatility: this portable wifi hotspot for laptop is unlocked and compatible with most operators in North and South America, because it has following 4G LTE Frequency Bands: 2/4/5/12/14/29/30/66/71 and 3G bands 2/4/5.
  • The powerful 3000 mAh battery provides enough power for a full workday (8 hours) without recharging or up to 24 hours with partial use.
  • Perfect Usability: Compact size, beautiful design, user-friendly menu and touchscreen, plus decent speed really appeal to people; they happily buy and use this device for travel, in the car, or for everyday carrying; people just love it; by purchasing this device, people can connect to local carrier plans, getting favorable rates and avoiding overpaying for plans from eSIM providers.
  • Portable wifi box has an ergonomic design. The basic package includes a Micro-USB cable and charger.
  • The device has an informative 2.4 inch touchscreen display on which you can see the network level and traffic volume, as well as make more detailed settings adjustments.
  • A web interface is available for advanced users to customize operating modes and security levels

This wifi box portable hotspot has many useful functions, so it can be used in many areas.

  • Personal, secure mobile Wi-Fi for your laptop and other gadgets. Since public Wi-Fi (in hotels, restaurants, etc.) is considered unsafe, most business people prefer to have their own Wi-Fi to ensure the safety of data transmission and storage of personal data.
  • If you go abroad, you can take out your SIM card and buy a card from a local operator to avoid increased roaming fees and get quality internet. Local tariffs are usually 10-20 times cheaper than roaming tariffs.
  • People who often change their place of residence often buy routers because they do not have time to connect to cable internet. Consequently, wherever they move, they have personal Wi-Fi that works in all American states and countries in North and South America.
  • If you have a small company and a small office, you can avoid tying yourself up in contracts for cable internet by simply buying a hotspot, activating a data plan, and plugging it into an outlet. This will provide enough internet for 5-7 people.

  • People often buy this personal wi-fi for RVs to provide Wi-Fi for the whole family or company. It is also convenient for mobile homes, since there is usually no cable internet there.
  • this att hotspot wifi portable can also work in areas of poor mobile network signal when an external MIMO amplifying antenna is connected (not included), as this prepaid hotspot has two MIMO connectors for the antenna

Connecting to AT&T

There are several ways to purchase and pay for a data plan for an AT&T hotspot purchased from us:

  • You can go to an AT&T store and purchase a data plan there.
  • Alternatively, go to the AT&T website and buy online.

Based on customer feedback, the online method is the easiest. However, if you would prefer not to buy online, you can purchase a data plan in a physical store.

Decide how many gigabytes you need per month to choose the right plan. If you're not sure how much data you need, start with the minimum plan and increase it as required.

If you already have an AT&T line, adding a second line for the hotspot will probably cost less. Otherwise, you will pay the standard rates set by the operator.

When purchasing a plan, have your device and SIM card ready. You will need the IMEI of your device and the ICCID of the SIM card that came with it to connect. To make the connection process as quick as possible, provide the operator with the following information:

  • I want a data plan for a hotspot.
  • Connection type: Prepaid
  • Indicate whether you have a valid AT&T line.
  • Confirm that you already have a device and SIM card, and provide the IMEI of the device and the ICCID of the SIM card.

Once the operator has received all the information, they will process it and provide a payment method and option. Once you have paid for the plan, it will be activated on the SIM card. This usually takes 15–30 minutes, but may take up to 24 hours. As the seller, we are not responsible for the operator's work or the duration of the tariff plan activation process. This process is generally similar to purchasing a phone number for a regular phone, which also takes time. Therefore, if you purchase online, we recommend allowing 30 minutes for this process to ensure a smooth connection; if you visit a store, we recommend allowing 1 hour.

Since this att hotspot is unlocked, it can be used with other carriers throughout the United States. However, if you are switching to a carrier other than AT&T, we recommend doing so at the new carrier's store, as this will be more efficient. The AT&T SIM card included with the device will not work with another carrier's network. The other carrier will provide you with their own SIM card. If the carrier does not accept the AT&T IMEI, you can ask the carrier for their IMEI. Alternatively, you can use your phone's IMEI. If neither option works, we can provide you with an IMEI to connect to the desired carrier. The only peculiarity of connecting to another carrier is that you may need to register your APN number on the device. You can get the APN value from the carrier or from us. We will promptly provide it to you.

If you want to connect to a tariff plan while traveling outside the US, we recommend doing so at the carrier's store. This way, all related issues can be resolved on the spot, and you will be satisfied with the result.

Based on the above information, you can confidently purchase this ZTE Velocity 4G LTE MF985. Its universal characteristics allow it to be used in all areas of business activity, such as the internet for work, the office, home, travel, and remote locations. It ensures the security of your internet resources, business, and personal data.

The ZTE Velocity 2 is a solid choice for a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. It's easy to set up and offers reliable 4G connectivity with decent speeds. The battery life is good, lasting around 12 hours with moderate use, which is handy for travel or days out. The interface is simple to navigate, and the device itself feels sturdy. However, it's important to note that this is a 4G device, so don't expect 5G speeds. Also, the included AT&T SIM card might not be the best option for everyone, depending on your carrier preferences. Overall, if you need a reliable and portable 4G hotspot, the ZTE Velocity 2 is a good option.

I love this hotspot! It delivers the performance I expect from a 4G LTE device and supports external antennas, including some small ones that come with it. These antennas can make a significant difference in signal strength, often being the deciding factor between having a signal or not.The only drawback is the speed, as it offers last-generation 4G LTE speeds rather than the faster 5G. However, this is something to consider based on your needs and the technology you want to invest in. As a budget-friendly 4G LTE option, this hotspot is excellent and provides reliable performance.Overall, I highly recommend this hotspot for anyone looking for a cost-effective 4G LTE solution.

You will need your own LTE card for this to work. Once you have that, its not hard to get this going. I even was able to get this working with Visible LTE. The battery is decent, but the best part is you can buy a separate battery to swap out when needed. Case is decent.

My family tends to travel quite often and although we have a mobile hot spot with our carrier, we were needing more substantial capability within our car during these long trips. A friend of mine suggested looking at a portable mobile hot spot router, and so I did some research and based on our needs, this ZTE Velocity 2 seemed like a viable option. This particular one is "UNLOCKED" - therefore, I was confident it would work with any carrier other than AT&T. My assumption was correct, as I have T-Mobile, I was able to connect. Below, I will outline the factors I considered prior to deciding this would be the best fit for my family's needs.*Design: Very compact- portable with hard case provided-Unlocked Router- Extra battery included*LCD is simple to use and read - touchscreen works properly*USB Type C chargin port*Nano-Sim can use other carriers card macro SDXC card slot*Frequency: Dual-band*Compatible with: Laptop, Gaming console, Tablet, Printer and Smartphones*Included in this package:-Hotspot device-two batteries-QC Charger w/USB Type C cable-2 external antennas-screen protector-hard case*Power source: 2 lithium batteries which are INCLUDED*Dimensions for your reference: 6"L x 4"W x 5"HAll in all, I'm pleased with the results of using this mobile hotspot. With two teenage daughters, this was a great decision. The set up was simple enough, great instructions and easy to follow. I would contend this is a great little investment. Based on its performance, I would recommend this to other consumers. Impressed. Thanks for reading my review, I hope it was informative and helpful. :)

The product I received was a used device. Missing one battery, and the SIM card was just thrown in the box. The SIM card was snapped out of the casing.Besides it being a used device, I have used this router for a week, so here's my feedback:- Very slim, compact and easy to carry around.- Works fine with my T-Mobile SIM card. I used my TMO SIM card from one of my spare TMO phones.- Screen shows T-Mobile 4G LTE connection.- Simple/easy menu system.- The two antennas help a little with the signal, buit are very tight to insert into the slot.- One of the antennas is challenging to insert because the plastic cover partially blocks antenna from being inserted. See attached picture. - Really annoying.- Screen menu very easy to navigate. Touch screen is very responsive.- Both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wifi is supported, but you can only enable one of them, not both.- You can use a computer web browser to attached to the router. (as opposed to using the small screen).- Has power management settings for the display screen and wifi.- No options to set any special security settings (i.e. WPA, WPA2..etc).- At most, I get a max of three out of 5 bars. But mostly stays on two bars, even when outside.- Speed test is usually 15Mbps down and 3Mbps up. Never seen anything better since using it. Maybe due to weak signal- Keeps good track of the amount of data used.- Max ten users. (10 users or 8 users + 2 guests).- Good travel case. But not really needed. A little big. Router is slim enough. Just throw it in your brief case / back pocket.- Has data roaming.Overall, I have used this router for more than a week. It's fine, nothing special. Seems to do what it is designed to. Will try to get better performance. - somehow. BTW, you can easily use your cell as a hotspot and do the same as this router.
