Things to know about Zong 4G Devices

Wasio Abbasi
August 10, 2015

Zong 4G device has taken the country by storm and the demand has risen to incredible level. The sheer level of coverage, incredible speed and affordable packages have made these devices a must for internet users who crave for lower ping and higher speed.

We also did a Zong 4G MiFi video review which you can also checkout to know more about this latest device that’s the talk of the town right now!

There are still questions that people ask and we have compiled a list of them for easy access.

Will the device work in our area?

Check the coverage map for 3G/4G on Zong’s official website and see if your area is covered. Also, if possible, test the coverage yourself with the help of Zong sim (your own, someone in your family or from friends). This will give a better idea of coverage in your area.

Is the GST tax applied on these packages?

Zong’s 4G devices come with package that already include taxes. You do not need to pay any extra.

How do I recharge? (it’s not that simple)

When you completely consume the data or it expires at the end of the month, you need to recharge (minimum 1500) to continue using the device.

But … you have to call and inform Zong customer service that you have recharged the sim. By recharging alone the package DOES NOT get activated and require manual activation through Zong customer service. Zong internet packages come in 24, 50, 100 and 200GB tiers

If you DO NOT activate the package, your balance will be consumed at the rate of Rs. 18/Mega Byte.

Can we only buy the device and not the sim?

No. The sim that comes with the device is tagged. The device will not accept any other sim, not even of Zong’s except the one sealed with the device.

I am not getting good 4G speed, what should I do?

Switch to 3G. There is a good chance that 4G signals are unstable in your area and would be better to stay on 3G which has much better and stable coverage.

How to switch to 3G?

  • Go to Zong 4G device’s admin panel (192.168.8.1)
  • Login using your admin credentials.
  • Click Settings
  • Click “Dial-Up” on the panel in the left and select “Network Settings”
  • On the next page there will be an option “Support LTE networks” which will be active by default. Click on it to turn it off.

Another option is to use the Huawei’s HiLink Android app, connect with the device using Wireless Lan and close the LTE option. The video review shows how to do that.

Battery gets drained very fast.

If the signals in your area for 4G are weak and you haven’t turned off LTE option, Zong MiFi would repeatedly switch between 3G and 4G networks. This will rapidly drain the battery. Ideally, stay on the network that works best for you. If 4G is unstable, stay with 3G.

If you are using the device heavily, with several devices connected and even using some networking facilities such as network gaming or heavy file transfer, the battery will get drained fast.

Also, we experienced faster battery drainage in warmer weather. So if you reside in areas with higher temperature, keep it near well ventilated areas or in rooms that stay cool due to airconditioner/air cooler.

What is the different between 4G Wingle and 4G MiFi?

Zong 4G MiFi is a portable device that comes with a battery. You can carry it around in your pocket and still be able to use the internet. You only need to charge it and it’s good for few hours of use.

Zong 4G Wingle is a plug-and-play device, like a USB, that you need to insert in a laptop, computer or USB based power supply. It works just like MiFi device, just not battery powered.

Both devices come with WiFi options and can connect up to 10 devices.

            MMO games sometimes require an open port to run on 4G because 4G is NAT3. You may port forward the game (create a virtual server) to play them on Zong 4G. Search on google for more info.

        I don’t the username and password of my device….
        what should i write…???
        Plz tell…

        • try to locate a small RESET hole in the device.. power up the device and then with a Pin or needle inserted in the hole keep it pressed for 30 sec.. restart and then type the passwd printed on the device. works fine. The default username and password of all Zong MBB devices are “admin” that you need to put into both fields to login into Zong device portal.

      to check individial user data you need a router with Gargoyle firmware. on TPLInk routers you can install this firmware.
      I am using TPLink router with Gargoyle firmware to monitor and control bandwidth, I can set quota and speed for indvidal devices being used in home.
      You have option to limit speed after quota usage, disable internet after quota usage etc. I disable my smarttv internet usage so it does not auto updates.

  3. Sara says:

    I regret buying it…. after 17 days 50 gb data is finished…. they are just fooling people by there tricks!

    • Muhammad Zohaib says:

      See, I have been using 3G and 4G Internet services, let me elaborate u difference, if u will use 4G then ur Internet data will be consumed instantly because 4G takes a lot of data as default, whereas 3G Internet will give u good speed and less data consumption as well. So choose 3G instead of 4G. Try it and you will find difference for sure.

    • Smartchoice.pk says:

      When you use data with higher speeds you consume more data in less duration which is why people feel that their data finished too early. Also video streaming is done in high res which also consumes more data. You can use Huawei Hi Link or My Zong app to check data usage.

    • suhaib876 says:

      got any issues with speed 😕 after first 5 days i have got it downed , same package 50 GB and i have no idea where have i spent 22 GB in 5 days using only social media sites..

        Bro, i want to buy zong device please help which one should I buy 3G or 4G?
        And which one u prefer wingle or Wifi device?

      • XeonFX says:

        Kaya chus mari hai, 3G or 4G have nothing to do with data usage its connectivity technology, 4G give better connectivity around 40 to 50 mbps practically and 3G gives 10 to 15mbps. If you open youtube on 4G youtube detect the connection speed and stream better quality video if it detects good connection speed. on 4G the speed is good so youtube send the 720p HD video which consumes a lot of bandwidth, always select 240p video in youtube settings. This will save a lot of bandwidth.

  11. rashid says:

    not a well designed service, Warid is much better you have the option to select next package before your current one expires, so theres no downtime on Warid. Zong has the most stupid recharge procedure, and current package has to expire before you can load more.

    But warid is too expensive :p

  12. Aizaz says:

    When it comes to data consumption then Ptcl evo is much better then zong. or any other service.

    how can i check may zong 4g device remaining data balance

  19. Amir Saeed says:

    i want to know my remaining data not usage

    • Ameer Hamza says:

      You can figure it out by knowing your usage.Just cancel the usage out of your planned volume for the month. For Examples! If you have 50GB monthly volume, and your current usage is 15GB, then your remaining data is 35GB.
