Product Description

The AT&T Wireless Internet router device uses the AT&T cellular network to provide phone service to your cordless or corded home phone(s) and Internet access to your computer and Wi-Fi enabled devices. Place it anywhere in your home where you have a strong wireless signal. It does not require the use of a home phone wall jack, unlike traditional home phone service. The AT&T Wireless Internet device provides many calling services, such as Voicemail, Caller Number ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, and Three-Way Calling, for your home phone(s). It also includes a backup battery in case of a power outage. The AT&T Wireless Internet device works exclusively with the AT&T cellular network and DOES NOT use your home phone wall jacks. Your device should be located: Where you have a strong signal from a cell tower, typically near a window or outer wall. Signal strength may vary in different parts of your home. Near an electrical wall outlet. In the general area where you’ll be using your home phone, computer, or Wi-Fi enabled devices. Select which phone and computer/Wi-Fi enabled device you will use with the AT&T Wireless Internet device: A cordless phone system with multiple handsets should be used to place phones throughout your home. If using an existing phone, unplug it from the wall jack. For Internet access, you can simultaneously connect up to ten (10) devices per Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), twenty (20) total, and one (1) via Ethernet.

After a few months it has to constantly be reset

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2023

I live in a rural area where cable internet is horrible at the most we get 10GB. So we went to AT&T and they hooked us up with a hotspot plan and told us to look on Amazon for a hotspot modem. I came across this one and decided to give it a try. It seems to be doing okay as for now. Last night was the first night we used it. tried to play Call of Duty it worked for a little while and then a big lag started to hit. We do live in an area where the service is pretty horrible so not for sure if it’s the hotspot or the service it’s self. Sometimes we get 30-50mbps and other times we get like 3mbps. The battery it came with I don’t think is all that great it starts dying within a few hours of use.

Update: it’s been a couple months. I’m having to restart this box every 30mins or so to get the max signal for my area. When I restart the box I get max speed around 30mbps and over time it drops dramatically.

My second one!

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2023

Verified Purchase

This is the third one I bought. The first one lasted for quite a few years but now finally became unreliable. I still had the Sims card so I just popped it in this one. Otherwise, you have to go to an actual AT&T corporate store to get a pre-paid plan for this hotspot router. The retails stores do not know how to do this. Call ahead. This is a great solution to rural needs for internet connection.

Replacement of older one we've been using

Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2023

Verified Purchase

This is only Internet available to us without going expensive satellite. The older device, identical, had been giving us some problems, difficulty connecting, slow speeds. But - we're are in a lousy area for creek phone coverage so don't know whether the old service was failing or it's just our lousy cell coverage. We shall see

Defective item

The battery was bad. It died within an hour of being unplugged from the power source. It had been plugged up and charging for more than 24 hours so I’m sure was charged properly. I requested a refund but I never received a response from seller.

We live in a rural area with no available internet service so we got wireless internet. All was well until our modem 'died. After trying a couple of alternatives we purchased this modem-router. It's signal is much stronger than before! Great product!
