Straight talk zte z288l hotspot experience

I have had pay as you go hot spots for years. I use them as my primary source unless a CG has really good internet(rare). I don't do any streaming and use generally 1-1.5G per month. The hot spots meet my needs fine and I just am looking for a lower cost. I have the time if it is a little slow. The CG I am at now runs very slow and drops out for days at a time. The current hot spot I have is pricey so I was holding off on starting it when I saw the Straight Talk one for Black Friday.
