FAQs

A WiFi USB improves your device's WiFi performance either by making a more reliable connection with your active wifi network or establishing a new SIM-based connection over a 3G, 4G or 5G network. With the Alcatel WiFi Dongle, for instance, you can enjoy high-speed 4G straight to your Windows, Mac or other device with a USB port.

It's easy to set up your Alcatel Dongle. You just need to insert your O2 SIM card into the dongle then plug the USB into your Mac or Windows PC. Now you can connect to O2's reliable 4G network in seconds.
