Product Description Connect a data-ready cellular phone or USB modem into the USB host port, and the PHS300 automatically establishes a connection to your cellular provider's data network. It works similar to the way a home router manages a DSL or Cable modem - just connect and forget. After connecting your cellular device, you can associate your PC with the PHS300 just like being in a public hotspot - and you're on the Internet. With the PHS300's built-in Li ion battery, you can enjoy hours of Internet connectivity in more places than you ever thought possible.

Have hotspot will travel! January 28, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a great device! I've purchased both the CTR350 and this device to create mobile hotspots using my Sprint U595 devices. It was dead simple to set up (literally charged it up, plugged my device into it and it worked). After playing around a little bit, I decided to use its web interface to set up security - and discovered a very nice, very complete router/firewall implementation. Cool!
For anyone wondering if T-Mobile UMA works over this thing - it does! I've tested both the CTR350 and the PHS300 and they both work nicely with my Blackberry 8820.
Wonderful Product June 8, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Very useful little product.
Very easy to setup and use.
I use it with my Verizon Wireless Broadband account and my Pantech UM150 USB broadband modem.
Creates a WiFi access point anywhere your broadband works.
I also bought the car power adapter and travel case. I can create a WiFi access point in the car, RV, or boat. Works really nice !
Highly recommended for its usefulness, ease of setup and design.
Works great and super simple August 8, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Super simple to hook up. When I had put the battery in it had some power, i connected it to my Verizon Blackberry 8830 World Phone and in a few seconds it was working. You just need to enter the password (last 6 digits of the MAC address) to connect to the PHS-300. The MAC address was printed on the outside of the case and inside by the battery.
I am using this with my MacBook Pro and an iPod touch and they both hooked up in seconds. MUCH easier than messing with BootCamp or Paralles and Verizon Access Manager.
Your personal Hotspot May 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I often do work at a coffee shop that refuses to get wifi because they are afraid people will linger. I regularly have meeting there with others that also need access to a broadband connection. This is the perfect solution as we can all easily share the same EVDO modem!
The coolest feature is the login authentication webpage, where you can grant guest users temporary access to your broadband connection. Also, this may be just my perception, but my connections seem faster with the Cradlepoint than when I plug my USB EVDO modem directly into my laptop.
Coffee shops beware, thanks to cradlepoint, you may have wifi and not even know it!
Works July 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had to do a firmware update to get it to work, but after that it works okay. Distance is very limited, I don't get a Excellent connection unless I'm less than 5 ft away.
