Setting Up a Temporary Hotspot
You can use the device to set up a temporary hotspot to allow a maximum of ve connections to
your MiFi2200 at one time.
The Temporary Hotspot prole 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 prole’s security settings.
