Too bad there's no 5G support for my connected car Mobley SIM.
I guess I'll stick with the Nighthawk LTE hotspot device still lol. I'm still holding on to my Mobley plan too.

Cant speak for AT&T plans. But for me I have a Tmobile Hotspot only plan, no voice ... for $10/month which this "type" device is good for. Can this be unlocked for other service providers?
If you're phone has hotspot capability, even at $10/mo, it's a gadget you don't need.
The only purpose would be if, for instance, you have Verizon phone and want a different carrier hotspot for traveling when Verizon signal sucks.

This is like a third party buying old AT&T hotspots, who knows if they'll work for your sim or not. I wouldn't bother with buying this.

Blast from the past! I finally cancelled mine a couple of years ago after getting on the TMO business tablet plan, and hooking it up with a 5G hotspot at home.
Did you need to have a TMO mobile phone plan to get the tablet plan? And which 5G hotspot do you use?

Nope dont need a phone line, its just a tablet line. You will need to get it as a business, so either you have a business tax id or you can use your own ssn as a sole proprietor or something. I picked up an unlocked Inseego M2000, works fine.

I'm still using mine as my home internet going on what is now....7 years! My SIM went bad and the AT&T store gave me a new one recently. People on Howard's forum said I shouldn't have put that SIM back in the Mobley, but I use it in the original device and deal with the limitations.

I did an IMEI "repair" (clone) on a Netgear AC767 and a Nighthawk M1. I stopped using the Mobleys years ago.

I'd be interested in tinkering with that but it is what it is. I don't do large file/game downloads at my residence anymore, but everything else has been humming along. I'm just finding out about that T-Mobile business tablet plan and am thinking about giving that a whirl.

But that's 4g device right? It's still only $30 on eBay which is good if you have 5g that's poor

Only a couple miles out then they can no longer connect to the cellular towers.
