What are the 4 USB ports for on the side of the Zumspot Elite 3.5 hot spot? When I got the hot spot there were no instructions, and the PDF I found online doesnt mention the usb ports.

Those are the ports of the raspberry pi single board computer that runs pistar.

They have little use on the hotspot.

OK Thank you for the reply......I see on the side of the Zumspot next to where the power cable plugs in, there are 2 micro-hdmi ports. Is it possible to connect this to a tablet or monitor?

You can plug a mouse and keyboard into the USB ports and a monitor into one of the HDMI ports (or just the monitor alone if you want), but alas you will not have access to the dashboard through any of those devices. The dashboard and all that it details is only accessible via a browser.
