Well as of right now I still have internet. I thought we’d lose it yesterday ?

Sprint has not cut off the hot spots yet. Does not mean that they won't.

Looks like they have disconnected my service. States mobile off and keeps trying to connect

I ditched 4GC yesterday. I have taken a chance on Calyx. It is working fine (faster than 4GCommunity) for now. I programed my 4GC hotspot to also work with Calyx so now I can leave one at home hooked up and I have one to take with me when I am out and about. Making lemonade.

Mine worked Saturday and is not working today.
Oh well. I got 5 months of free Internet out of bastards.

I was thinking I was paid through Dec, but cutoff was Nov 30. I knew the whole deal sounded too good to be true.

Guess it is any minute now......

To speed up your Sprint hotspot, try this:

Go to http://myhotspot/index.html#setting

Sign in (the password is passwoed)

Basic
Change
Authentication Method
WPA2-PSK
Encryption Method
AES

Also change:
Advanced
802.11 mode to G or N (G works best for me)
WiFi channel to channel 6

This pretty much doubled my speed.

I pre-paid thru June 2018, that's why I disputed the original charge with AmEx. I had asked 4GCommunitu to refund the unused 7 months of service and they blew me off. So AmEx pulled 12 months out of their bank account and refunded me all. I did not ask for as much, but 4G community had their chance
