I have worked with some of these cell hotspot devices before and they are most 
definitely KISS devices and his may not even permit him to make any changes 
whatsoever to the encryption.

Instructions that come with them are on the order of "plug it in and it will 
display the SSID and password on screen" and that's pretty much it.   The cell 
companies don't want to offer any kind of support on them at all so it's like 
"get this on a 30 day return and if you can't make it work send it back to us, 
but don't call for support unless the device tells you "no cell signal" on 
screen"
.
