Setting Up A Temporary Hotspot - Verizon Wireless MiFi 2200 User Manual

Setting Up a Temporary Hotspot

You can use the device to set up a temporary hotspot to allow a maximum of five connections to
the MiFi 2200 device at one time.
The Temporary Hotspot profile is pre-set on your device. It generates a temporary network name
(SSID) and network key so you can allow others to connect to your device without having to change
your secure profile's security settings.
