This device was meant for use back in the day when hotels only used to provide wired ethernet connections, so, it does not provide a wireless internet connection on its own. It is handy if you're traveling to a place that WiFi connections are not prevalent.

If by service provider, you mean a company like Verizon Wireless or AT&T; Wireless, the answer is no - it is not a 3G/LTE hotspot. This is an 802.11 WiFi device. I used it both as a client and WiFi Access Point. As a client, I was able to connect my TiVo to the home WiFi network. As a Access Point, I was able to connect my iPad to a hotel ethernet internet service. In both cases, I needed an existing high speed internet service.

This is a Travel Router that when plugged into the internet service in the hotel room using an Ethernet cable, the router acts as a WIFI Hot Spot. If you have one or more laptops that has been configured to work with this router at home those laptops will work with this WIFI setup anywhere you can get internet connection. Some hotels only provide an Ethernet connection and if you have more than one device that needs to connect to the internet, then this router will create the WIFI hotspot.I hope this helps. ! ! !

You don't need this modem then. You need a wireless router or a wired router, whichever you prefer.

It comes with whatever you need to start using the device. You don't need anything extra. Please note that it works over LAN connection only.

No service agreement required, it works off satellites. Just turn it on, wait for it to find itself and go.

Not totally clear on your question but we don't use a service provider we access it from a hotel which is just wifi

You had to have Caller ID with your service provider and costs will vary. Other than that there isn't a charge to use it, just plug it into the phone line and let it do it's thing. Everything works as advertised.

No, it does not require a service provider to unlock the product. If you have a current provider you are happy with, the product should work fine. It was very simple for us.

If your question is, do you need one? The answer is no, but you can use one to update firmware, and connect to all of the features that are available when you connect it to the internet (featured on the page). I've used these features rather infrequently, and therefore only plug it in occasionally. There isn't a "wifi" feature built in if that was your question also. Hope this helped!

If it is new service yes I am sure your local power company will want you to have meter. If it is not new and you are adding to your existing set up then you will not.

You are still going to need a service provider. This device would take the signal from a cable modem, DSL modem or other RJ45 network connection.

You have to purchase an iFit module. I think they are like $100. If you have a subscription, you should be able to use it for unlimited pieces of equipment.
