Verizon MIFI issue
 

hello,

i have been using the verizon flashed mifi for years but now i had to get mine reflashed last month. on the 23rd of this month 2 of the mifis i flashed stopped working.

are of any of you guys facing the same issues? i have no access to my accounts so if anyone can shed light where i can get it reflashed (remotely) i would appreciate it

Thanks

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

I've seen a number of people talking about 3G Mifi's having to be reflashed, and then only working for a few days/weeks after being reflashed.

http://www.vzwunlocker.com/mifi-services.html

Even the flashing service's site says "Verizon 3G isn't stable anymore - buy at your own risk". Might be time to look into 4G.

i had been using this guy for a while, he was great but i messaged him and he ignored me. i guess he does not know what to say.

do you use tmobile tethering? i know their ip pool isnt that great, but i would not paying the full price at this point.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

I had my device re flashed remotely to 3G using the above website just recently. It did not make it even 2 weeks before it stopped working again. This does not seem to be a viable option anymore unfortunately. It was nice while it lasted.

Has anyone had any experiencing with the flashed 4G mifi devices? I imagine it functions just as well for stealth providing unique IP's each time?

I need to start looking into other alternatives for IP's. If anyone has any methods/sources you can recommend please send me a message.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

yes i am going to try using tmobile today and test it, i will report back with ip repeats etc.

i might look into a new way of getting hotspot but first i need to get my business going again.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

I've tried contacting VZWUnlocker, the guy doesn't want to respond or anything. I personally only used my 3G Mifi for my kid....at this point, I'm going to go with $30/month AT&T Unlimited 4G/LTE.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Vzwunlocker reminds me of those people that sell crap products and then pray to God no one opens a dispute 😂😂

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

At this point, if anyone needs a Flashed Verizon Mifi....you gonna have to buy a new device that's already flashed on ebay for $160+.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Yeah mines stopped working on friday,
Messaged rich and didnt get an answer.

The phone number the account is registered too is gone. so I cannot even refill it.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Is "Rich" VZWunlocker?

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

My 4G LTE Verizon Flashed MiFi stopped working 2 weeks ago or so and the seller went MIA. IMEI check also say it's been blacklisted. Didn't even get 3 months out of it.

Now I need to start comparing devices & plans again. Ugh.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

No, he has a forum where he offers his services.
Mines wasnt even a month of newly being flashed and it crashed.

called about another device and it seems that verizon is listing the devices themselves as stolen/lost so they are rendered useless for the most part.
Gave the rep the EIME (Whatever) over the phone and its blocked.

They are cracking down hard it semms.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Cheapest I've seen so far is AT&T $30/month for Unlimited 4G/LTE.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

I agree, they are cracking down hard on these devices. I saw a listing on the 4G/LTE Mifi for sale, it literally said on the listing that you need to change the Sim Card every 3 days so they don't block the device, not worth it for me.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

I mailed one in to GLS last month, it works, but i almost never use it. Could be VZN blocks it if you use a certain amount of 3G data? And I dont use much if any.

Last week I thought it stopped working, it got stuck searching for VZN, but I left it on and after a couple hours of searching signal came back so leaves me thinking they must have been working on the tower by me.

GLS seemed to disappear tho, he hasn't listed anything in a little over a month and doesn't respond to eBay messages ATM.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Isn't 4g/lte not good enough for stealth due to IP pools? I might go with Verizon

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Correct, I personally don't use my Mifi's for stealth as much.....but a 3G is best when it comes to IP Pools.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Hello, I had aspkin account 4+ years ago but forgot user name/email. Was helped by member in getting a mifi on verizon for $30 every 3 months.

Had worked perfect till last week like others have reported. Can no longer even login to verizon account either. Hardly had any repeat IPs and helped me setup 10+ stealths on ebay that still are active.

If anyone knows new alternative please message. Have seen AT&T 4G talked about for $30 a month but IP pool is small/limited. So not sure what to do.

Have been using different starbucks and mcdonalds IPs past week for printing labels for sold items. Don't enjoy this but it works for now. Any help would appreciated and compensated of course. Thank you greatly.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Is this a tethered plan or Hotspot? Sounds too good to be true! The only others I've seen close to unlimited data are at least ~$50.

Also, I just turned on my Verizon MiFi and instead of showing 'No Service' it shows '3G' but I can't connect with my current SIM. Wonder if I replace the SIM I can still get a 3G connection.

The IMEI still says it's blacklisted, though.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Has anyone purchased a flashed 4G mifi that costs $5 to refill per month from vzwunlocker?

If so is it stable; how long has it been working for you?

Also do the IP's change each time you turn the device on or does it instead only provide a static IP?

If it is static is anyone aware of a seller who can flash the 4G models to receive dynamic IP's?

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Yes I purchased a flashed 4G activation from VZWUNLOCKER for $150 and purchased the Verizon MIFI device off eBay that he recommended. After a long and drawn out headache with no working service ever being delivered he just took the money and ran and will not respond to any texts. He is just another ripoff and you definitely should not be lured into his BS and send him any money because you will be sorry that you did.

Re: Verizon MIFI issue
 

Everyone that's bought one of those, has had problems. If you buy it, you are going to lose money and be pissed off in the end.
