Just got this device in from AT&T to do some Live Streaming testing.
It can either plug directly into the USB port, or it can plug into an extension cable that is provided along with a clip to attach it to your laptop screen.
There are two lights on the AT&T USBConnect Momentum 4G Device. ONe for power and one for data.
When I plugged it in I saw a power light immediately. No data.
So I confirmed that the SIM card was inserted correctly based on the online help page.
I plugged the device onto a Mac and A PC. Same thing.
Then I had an online chat with AT&T support and they suggest a reboot.
So I rebooted my MacBook Air.
The data light came on.
A Reboot always seems to fix things.
Up next, a speed test.
