If you are searching for 4G LTE Portable Hotspot mifi devices that work with Glo 4G, we have compiled a list for your convenience. This list include their prices, as well as related useful information.
Most 4G mifi devices support Airtel, Ntel, 9Mobile and MTN 4G networks, because those networks use more common LTE bands. Glo 4G, however, uses the 4G LTE band 28, which is not supported by many smartphones and mifis. This is why you need to be specific when shopping for a mifi for use on the Glo 4G network.
While Glo sells a branded 4G Portable Hotspot mifi, it is locked to the network. We recommend that as much as possible, you buy an unlocked mifi device. This is because somewhere along the line, you will need to use it on another network. In Nigeria, that is almost a given, which is why we have taken the time to compile a list of 4G mifi devices that work with Glo 4G.
You do not want to be stuck on that inevitable day when you need to switch networks. Get a mifi that supports at least all the major 4G networks in the country – 9mobile, Airtel, MTN, Glo – and possibly Smile.
Let’s have a look at some of the available 4G mifi devices in the market that support Glo 4G.

Important Info for buying portable hotspot mifi devices that work with Glo 4G
Each of the above devices are variants of specific models, so be sure to look out for the model names as used in this article. Their other variants may not necessarily support LTE Band 28.
Also note that this list is not exhaustive. There are other 4G portable hotspot mifi devices that work with Glo 4G in the market. At all times, be sure to ask the retailer if the device supports Glo 4G. We strongly recommend that you take your Glo 4G SIM card along to test the device at the point of purchase.
