#5 Road Warrior Woes
Whether you travel for business or you’re just hitting the road with the family for the summer, WiFi connections can be a complete source of frustration and pain. Many hotels offer “free” WiFi. They can be slower than dial up speed, while they tout the use of a higher speed.
#4 How Much Does Free Cost?
Hotels aren’t the only people offering free WiFi. I just saw that Khol’s offers WiFi. For the husband waiting for the wife to shop, I suppose? Many business people and travelers take advantage of free WiFi at coffee shops but there are dangers connecting to open WiFi networks.
” An estimated 90% of public WiFi hotspots at places like airports, hotels, and coffee shops lack the security to prevent even a moderately skilled teenager from hacking into an unassuming mobile user’s internet connection.” Forbes
#3 How Much is it Worth to You?
So how much is it worth to have your own source of WiFi? We just discussed the dangers of using “free” WiFi. If you’re traveling at all, this device is only $9.99 (pre-owned) and only cost $20/month to add to your Share Everything plan. So how much is it really worth for you to be without your internet? Why put up with slow internet, or put yourself and your data at risk?
#2 Everyone Needs to be Connected
This device allows you to connect up to ten devices. That means you can have all of your tech necessities as well as allowing your traveling companions to connect. Whether you’re traveling with business associates or family, everyone needs to stay connected these days.
#1 Need for Speed
Remember the hotel and coffee shop WiFi we talked about? It’s so frustrating when you use free WiFi, knowing that everyone in the shop is also on your same bandwidth. Chances are they’re all streaming Netflix and Spotify. On average, it leaves you with 1Mbps or less download speed to try to work. With your own Jetpack, you typically get average download speeds of 5 – 12 Mbps down and 2 – 5 Mbps up. During my short time with the unit I saw speeds of up to 17.83 Mbps
So don’t risk the frustration and dangers of “free WIFI” any more. Get a Jetpack and get connected today.
