Need for regular access to the Internet than ever before, travelers have more choices these days, but choice is not always satisfactory. You can try to find a Wi - Fi hot spots, but sometimes one is not handy. You can be one of the major carriers, mobile broadband USB modem, but usually need to install special software, which can be a cumbersome - and some gadget has no USB port.

Novatel Wireless MiFi 2200, a pocket-sized gadget, marriage and convenient Wi - Fi and mobile broadband everywhere in the elegant avoid these problems. It not only does not require special software - you connect to it just like you go to any Wi - Fi hotspots - but it allows you to share a mobile broadband account number, your friends.

I recently bought a MiFi from the Sprint 2200, so far, I have moved with it, because I have been the purchase of any high-tech I have achieved in recent years. Small and thin - about the size of three stacked credit cards - in MiFi is actually a small Wi - Fi router derives its income from a single mobile broadband account (as opposed to DSL or cable) Internet access services. Open it, in the 3G signal inside the scope and the immediate establishment of Wi-Fi functionality, 5 users at any given moment of the hot spots. Can share and other mobile broadband access is an important selling point, but even if you are a single flight MiFi ease of use - and it supports all Wi - Fi equipment, rather than a computer - makes a great attraction.

Perhaps the only drawback is that because it is a stand-alone device, MiFi run on its own source of strength, to give you a smaller, I remember the evening charge. It took about 2.5 hours, fully charged, including through micro-USB AC adapter, and then I could use about 4 hours, the published MiFi the internal battery. (Novatel Wireless manual provides that the device will run faster, if multiple devices using broadband access, but I can not test this.) However, if a wall outlet, it can run MiFi connected to the charger.

I have Sprint unit, spent a two-year contract (after instant discounts) to pre-activate: All I have to do after charging, the device has been installed as an implementation of the procedures will do the same type to any Wi - Fi Lu $ 150 from the device online, change the SSID and settings through the browser interface, the encrypted code. Then, I click on the "button to MiFi 2200 power, a big round", which connect to Sprint's 3G network - no further action. By visiting the Windows Vista, Wi units of the hot - Fi is another utility a few seconds, I had a very good broadband access in my loft in downtown San Francisco area, even though my AT & T's iPhone can not maintain more than a few seconds of voice calls.

Services in general the scope of the website; YouTube video once frozen, but beyond that, can be summarized as the successful completion of my wired broadband home network. Speed test results show that I download ranging from 700 kbps to 1.2 Mbps (and what Sprint claims) and 130 between the Mbps and 230 Mbps (and slightly lower than Sprint's EVDO version of the A, the performance range of advertising slow upload).

Sprint charged up to 5GB of bandwidth use of 60 U.S. dollars a month, Verizon Wireless, the same, but Sprint did not provide a cheaper option (Verizon has a plan priced at 40 U.S. dollars a bandwidth of 250 megabits 1 month), which makes Sprint's MiFi more suitable for people who want to use more than occasionally frequent travelers. Sprint offers roaming services, but its cost - and taking into account the network is compatible with overseas (most of the use of wireless GSM technology, the lack of, while Sprint and Verizon Wireless use CDMA), I do not recommend the services of overseas visitors.

MiFi service charges are not cheap, but considering the hotel and the airport Wi - Fi I would like to save the fees - not to mention easy - I'd be happy to recommend to business people who seek a reliable Internet connection their domestic travel.
