Verizon Jetpack® MiFi® 7730L - GPS over Wi-Fi

Here's how to change GPS over Wi-Fi settings for your Verizon Jetpack MiFi 7730L.
  • The GPS over Wi-Fi setting allows the MiFi device to provide a GPS (NMEA) stream to a Windows or Mac computer.
    • This is only useful if running an app that is capable of utilizing a NMEA GPS stream (e.g., Microsoft Streets & Trips, etc.).
  • To utilize GPS over Wi-Fi, a driver must be installed on the computer.
  1. From the left menu, click
    Jetpack Settings
    .
  2. From the Jetpack tab, click
    GPS
    (located in the upper-right).
  3. If necessary, tap the
    GPS switch
    to turn on.
    If prompted, tap
    Confirm
    .
  4. If desired, tap
    Turn GPS off when the Jetpack restarts
    to turn on or off.
  5. If desired, click
    GPS over Wi-Fi (NMEA)
    (lower-left) to expand.
  6. Click
    Turn on GPS over Wi-Fi
    to turn on or off.

  7. If applicable, enter the port number.
    Typically the default value should be used.
  8. Click

    (lower-right).
If GPS over Wi-Fi (NMEA) is enabled, launch the GPS-enabled app on the computer then configure it to utilize a NMEA port or GPS receiver.
Refer to the app's help menu or contact the app developer for assistance.
Once the app has found the NMEA port / GPS receiver, it shows 'Searching/Waiting for your location' until a GPS fix is obtained then displays the current GPS location.
