Millenicom Router needed ?

I've been using the Millenicom MiFI 20 Gig plan now for about 6 months. As others have said, no router needed. It works fine as long as you are within about 30-40 feet of it. And remember it's portable and the battery lasts a LONG time. Put it in your pocket and head off to the park with your notebook/Ipad/Nook. It will accommodate up to 5 different devices at one time. I even set my phone to search it out and use it if available.

I also got the Sleek - it seems to add about 2 bars to the MiFi. And I got the Sleek office kit to put in my 5th wheel.

According to their plan description you should NOT need anything else. Their device will allow 10 WiFi enabled devices to be simultaneously connected.

A router usually does this same function when there is a single point device.

I assume you mean the Verizon hotspot that is sold by Millenicom?

They will not allow you to use a "real" Verizon hotspot, that you did not buy from them, on their system.

Now this is funny....My Millenicom Verizon Hotspot has the word "Verizon" on the front and operates on all Verizon towers, partner towers and associate towers that the "REAL" Verizon hotspot works on.........:s

Did you buy your Verizon branded hotspot from Millenicom?

When I called and asked if I could use my exissting Verizon Hotspot on the 20GB plan, they told me "No, you can only use one purchased from Millenicom".
