Watch: How to set up the PopUp WiFi Lite in one minute (or less!)

Bonded multi-carrier connections

With three modems bonding 4G LTE-A and 5G connections from across AT&T, T Mobile and Verizon, the PopUp WiFi Lite gives you the stability to handle any unexpected fluctuations in the performance of the cell towers around you.

Customized network

Adding a little more polish to the user experience for your guests, we’ll send your Lite unit already configured with the network name/s and password/s of your choice. 

Set up in minutes - just add power

Anyone can set up a PopUp WiFi Lite unit. Just find a spot 4′ or higher, and plug it into regular AC power. That’s it! In a few minutes, you’ll be ready to connect. And if you’re ever wondering about anything, our 24/7 live phone support has instant answers any time.

The PopUp WiFi Lite

LAN + WAN Ports

One handy LAN port to connect devices or switches via hard line.
One WAN port lets you add any on-site connection to the pool for even greater redundancy.

Perfect for POS

When cash is king, the Lite combines one 5G plus two x 4G LTE-A feeds together with any available on-site WiFi or hardline connection for peak performance, so you never miss a sale.

Battery Option

Run your Lite with standard AC power, or add a Lithium Ion power tool battery for UPS capability and mobility. We designed the battery plate to run off a standard Milwaukee or Dewalt power tool battery - use your own or rent ours.
