Kromazon, welcome to Android Forums

The E560 is essentially a 3G wifi router. It connects to the internet with 3G (requires a SIM card) and then distributes that connection via 802.11b/g/n wifi. Any device that has 802.11b/g/n wifi can connect to it including your Acer A100. So there is no need for it to be "Android compatible" and does not require any installation on your A100. It would be just like connecting to any other wifi network.

Hope that helps!

Hello man,
Thanks for the reply. I thought it the same even the mobile operator told me taht this device need additional instalation of some software. I read the instruction of the E 560 and it really seems that if you use only WiFi you don't need additional software, right?

Have a nice day pal.

I'd go with the instructions of the E560 as 802.11 doesn't require any additional software.
