|
|
3Gstore has partnered with Millenicom to offer 20GB of nationwide 3G and 4G LTE mobile broadband service for just $69.99/month, with NO contract, credit check, or cancellation fees! The service utilizes the popular Novatel MiFi 4620LE hotspot, which costs $179.99 to purchase and activate and is yours to keep even if you ever decide to cancel your Millenicom service.
Key details:
--What are the costs? The MiFi 4620LE hotspot costs $179.99 (this includes the activation fee, a cable to use it with the router of your choice, and setup and configuration of both the hotspot and the router). The 20GB monthly 3G/4G service costs $69.99/mo and is billed by Millenicom. No other fees apply, and you can cancel anytime!
--How and when is the $69.99/mo billed? Millenicom will bill you $69.99/mo on the first of every month for the 20GB service plan (your first month of service will be prorated).
--Is the service unlimited? NO. The $69.99/mo service includes a 20GB data allowance. If you repeatedly exceed 20GB, Millenicom may suspend or terminate your service.
--How fast is the service? Speeds will vary depending on whether you're in a 3G or 4G area and how strong your signal is. Below are the average speeds you can expect, assuming you're in a good coverage area (click here to check coverage):
4G (LTE): 5-20Mbps download, 2-5Mbps upload
3G (EVDO Rev-A): 600-1400kbps download, 200-800kbps upload

Quite a premium ... for 3GStore. It is cheaper to go with Millenicom directly _________________ evdo-tips.com |

Jim, we bundle ours with the router of the customer's choosing and the cost includes preconfiguration of everything - hence the "premium". We're not just charging more for the fun of it.
If you already have a compatible router and you don't need the "premium", contact us. |

Jim, you can read all about the hotspot and select a router to go along with it right here (this link was in the original post several times as well): http://3Gstore.com/millenicom
Please feel free to call or email us if you are confused about the cost, the routers we're offering with it, etc. |

Millleicom offers the exact same plan but the 4620LE is $99.95 , why would anyone pay $179.00 to 3Gstore for the same plan and device?
P.S. Maureen .... I've been a lot longer with this tech than you have ever been _________________ evdo-tips.com

Thanks Jim for the network info. Where I live, Verizon definitely has better coverage, so this peaks my interest.
In regards to the 3G costs, versus Millenicom, did you read the part on Millenicom's web site where it states:
Initial charges require $99.99 device purchase fee, $49.99 activation fee and $15.00 shipping fee.
Perhaps you still had your rose coloured glasses on ? ;o) |

Easy, big fella ! I'm having a beer right now, so you could be right. I read this in the 3G info, and perhaps made a leap:
What are the costs? The hotspot costs $179.99 (this includes the activation fee, a cable to use it with the router, and setup and configuration of both the hotspot and the router);
I'm gonna hate it if I'm wrong, but it could be my suds obscured glasses! |

From what I can tell from the 3G order page, is that you HAVE to purchase a router along with the Millenicom product!
Okay, like that really can't be true, is it? I already have a perfectly fine PepWave I want to plug it into. Am I reading this correctly? Based on previous postings, perhaps not. Maybe I'll look at the whole thing again some other day. Time for me to give it a rest. Thanks, Jim. |

The Millenicom JetPack is a router and modem all in one device. Don't pay for something you don't need. _________________ evdo-tips.com |

Jim,
Checkout this page - https://members.millenicom.com/members/order.php?step=1&productGroup=23&product=106
The device is $99.99, there's a $49.99 setup fee and $11.50 shipping allowance when you order direct. This is the same cost that we sell the product for less the $15 setup fee. If someone looks at checkout you have the ability to "Delete" items you don't need.
When you order with us directly you get the same deal as going direct, but you also get a year of free technical support with any of the products you purchase! |
