TG Wireless offers this model in the grades available at the time of your inquiry, which can include new, A+ Grade, A Grade, and B Grade. Every quote states the grade, the storage, and the color mix. Ask the account manager for packaging status (original box, accessories, or handset only) and for the activation-lock and carrier-status checks TG performs on used units before they ship.
Network and compatibility
As a Verizon-branded 3G-era data card the AC551 depends on Verizon's CDMA/EV-DO network, which Verizon shut down on December 31, 2022; see the network status line in the table. No US carrier can activate it now, and it does not support LTE. Buyers use it to keep legacy laptop or embedded setups whole, for display, or for parts; it is not a working internet connection in the US or on GSM networks abroad.
