You can enjoy secure, reliable, affordable WiFi when you need it, on your terms, with three flexible rate plans and no annual contract or credit check.

It’s your must-have travel accessory for sharing Internet access with up to 10 WiFi-enabled devices. With password protection and guest WiFi, this accessory offers you safe, hassle-free access on AT&T’s network, which has the nation’s strongest 4G LTE signal*, so you don’t have to rely on public WiFi to stay connected. You’ll be able to entertain your kids, do homework, and catch up on bills and office email while on road trips or between appointments. The AT&T Unite Express also offers an optional interface in Spanish, the first NETGEAR mobile hotspot from AT&T to do so. “Our newest mobile hotspot is an easy-to-use device that our customers can simply turn on and connect, without adjusting settings,” said Judy Cavalieri, vice president, AT&T voice and prepaid products. “NETGEAR has designed our AT&T Unite Express with the intuitive setup and the outstanding experience that meets our high standards for quality. We’re also happy to offer our Spanish-speaking customers an optional Spanish language interface to make using the hotspot even easier.” The AT&T Unite Express is ideal for people who want secure on-the-go access away from home, but don’t want the long-term commitment of an annual contract. Within minutes, parents, students, travelers, renters, telecommuters, and those with second homes can set up the AT&T Unite Express, add a prepaid data plan, connect to the built-in wireless access point, and get online. With an easy click, you can safely share your 4G LTE connection with up to 10 laptops, tablets, smartphones, digital cameras, gaming consoles, and other WiFi-enabled devices. Key Features
