Hey there @Adeoti , 

Welcome to the Community and thanks for your post. 

The Alcatel Linkkey is only capable of providing internet connection to laptops and desktop computers. 

Let the Community know if you have more questions.

Okay. So, its not what I can do with the link key. But, I am having a device upgrade coming up. I would therefore need your opinion on what device to change my link key to. I am needing to connect my data handset to my laptop with a mobile internet device and also connect my Roku TV at the same time to the laptop. Right now the Link key does allow me to pair my data handset but it does not allow me to connect my Roku TV and the pairing is the only thing stable to my data handset, connecting is not. Please help me further.

Thanks for the clarification @Adeoti , 

It would be difficult for the Community to provide recommendations on a specific set up as it would depend on the type of usage you would consume on a day to day basis.

We do on the other hand have a great support article on Bell.ca that will give you some pros and cons from switching to a smartphone portable Wi-Fi hotspot set up (also known as tethering) and/or going towards one of Bell's mobile internet devices; Check out What is a smartphone portable Wi-Fi hotspot? to learn more.
