Activity: 0% Longevity: 76% | | Dongle question
First off, wanted to thank everyone on here for all the support. e-bay stealth was the best investment I ever made. Have my 4 stealth accounts in perfect standing w/no problems, strongest account w/52 + feedback =) (waiting for my blue star certificate lol)
I'm not tech savvy, so had a few of questions about the dongle.
If I bought one of these, does it work right away or do you have to sign it up w/a service, like verizon, att, etc paying an additional $60/monthly?
Would one dongle be enough for various IP change? Or would buying more of them (different models) give you access to more IP's?
Is it difficult to set up for someone w/basic computer skills?

1 dongle should give you enough ips you need. every time you reconnect you'll get a new IP. the only thing that remains the same is your mac address you can use a mac address spoofer to fix that. I know eb ay doesn't track mac, but i think pp is starting to track mac but i'm not sure. I know amazon does for sure.
dongle's are plug and play, if you're savvy enough to plug it into your usb port and install some drivers you're good to go.
i hope that helped.

Hold up a Minute here,,,,,First of all what did you buy a Wi-Fi Dongle?,,,,a Locked 3g or 4g Dongle?,,,, or an Unlocked 3g or 4g Dongle?,,,all of them Need Something that is NOT Free,,,
a Wi-Fi Dongle NEEDS a Wi-Fi Signal to pick up. Those signals cost money whether Starbucks Coffee pays for them in their shops or You pay for it in your home, SOMEBODY Pays.
3g or 4g Dongles need a Service Contract with a Carrier like At&t, Verizon, Clear, T-Mobile, Whoever, Some Dongles are "Locked" to a Specific Carrier some are "Unlocked" and work with a Lot of Different Carriers,,,but again SOMEBODY Pays,,
So what did you Buy???

I knew that sounded too good to be true.
I did ask the seller b4 getting it, he said I didn't need to pay monthly. so guess have to wait to see if the thing works or not. Should be getting it on Monday.
& i got the unlocked 3g huwaii (not sure on the spelling)

I'm sure it's just an unlocked dongle and you need to supply your own SIM card from a GSM service.

The unlocked 3g huwaii Requires a SIM Card with an activated Data Plan on it,,,so if you have a SIM Card for your cell Phone and it has a Data Plan,,all you have to do is take thi SIM Card out of the Phone and put it in your unlocked 3g huwaii Dongle,,,and you are good to go

or, if you have a smartphone, you can keep the sim in it and use the phone as a dongle and mobile phone all at same time.
If your smartphone is unlocked then you can use any 3g provider and do it that way if you want.... you can even connect without any wires and the phone can be in your pocket or in another room etc.

Not to mention, you skipped a million steps in your response. Stick to the dongle they already ordered. SLAPPED explained the best option.

NOTHING concrete paypal.
As of today, nothing but an unfounded urban myth. Let it ride.
Expect future posts to disappear.
Claims need substainated proof.
Cheers.
