That ZTE MF833V is a dongle adapter. Practically worthless.


Agreed. But the fact the IMEI worked is noted.

The device I'm most waiting for is the GL-iNet x750v2. They're working on trying to figure out why their IMEIs are not listed as compatible, because that little router just got ATT ...

I could tether - but I'd rather have a router so I could use phone my regular phone via wifi. Certainly worth considering. I have an unlocked iPhone 6 that would probably work ok.

I've not bought a router yet, not sure what to get. What I need is different.

I have a remote cabin in central Texas, ATT 4G isn't bad there. I think I can get t-Mobile as well; plan on testing it. Verizon, Sprint, and others are complete dead zones.

What I'm trying to do is put an Internet ...
