Anyone try out these hotspots? Any opinions? The cost is comparable or cheaper to buying directly from a phone provider. Are the hotspot devices decent? Customizable?
The non profit itself seems interesting and privacy focused. Their OS seems well maintained and it “just works”.

I recently got their hotspot and its been good. I got the MIFI X PRO 5G and have no complaints. I can’t speak to the privacy of it, but it uses a T-Mobile sim card. Do you have any questions in particular?
Very cool! Yeah can you have multiple SSID channels? Can you set the DNS? Does it perform as you’d expect?
You can have a primary network and guest network. As far as I can tell, you can’t have more than that.
You can set DNS manually.
Here is a link to a pretty comprehensive user guide that explains all the settings. Maybe I missed something about the SSIDs. https://static.inseego.com/us/download/mifixpro-userguide-tmobile.pdf
Thank you!
