FAQ
A wireless internet (WiFi) hotspot device is a portable internet modem that you can use to access the internet on a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or any WiFi-enabled device.
You may want to borrow a WiFi hotspot if you:
- Are temporarily without internet at home
- Need a reliable internet connection on the go
You can use the device anywhere. The hotspot uses the T-Mobile cellular network for its connection, so you will get the best connection in areas with strong T-Mobile internet reception. For a good indoor connection, we recommend placing the hotspot on/near a window sill.
Hotspots can be put on hold using our catalog. You will be notified by email when the hotspot is available for pickup. You may also call 973-402-0900 – we’ll place the hold request and notify you when a hotspot is available.
