Accessing the Network

The Verizon Wireless MiFi 4510L device supports Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband service

for a superior wireless data connection.

4G LTE Mobile Broadband

With LTE bandwidth (700 MHz) you can get the broadband-like speed you require to work eciently

outside the home or oce. You can connect to the Internet, corporate intranet, check your email

and download attachments with typical download speeds of 5-12 Mbps. Mobile Broadband gives

you the freedom to stay productive and connected whether you’re on the road or in a meeting

across town.

4G Mobile Broadband with LTE

• Download: typical download speeds of 5-12 Mbps

• Upload: typical upload speeds of 2-5 Mbps

3G Mobile Broadband with EVDO Rev. A

• Download: typical download speeds of 600 kbps–1.4 Mbps.

• Upload: typical upload speeds of 500-800 kbps.

Subject to Customer Agreement, Calling Plan, credit approval, and other service terms.

Mobile Broadband Rev.A speed claim based on our network tests with 5 MB FTP data les without compression. Verizon

device will indicate coverage when you are in a Mobile Broadband Rev. A service area. When outside the Rev. A service area,

your wireless device will revert to Mobile Broadband Rev. 0 (typical download speeds will be 400–700 Kbps and upload speeds

will be 60–80 Kbps). Actual throughput speed and coverage may vary. Speed claims not applicable when roaming.
