Ah, OK.

These are Wi-Fi routers with a built in 3G modem. Plug SIM card in, give
it power (built in rechargable battery) and off you go via Wi-Fi.

And anyone else you choose to give access to!

You just need to pick your tarrif...


Would that be a good option and useful at a lug meet :)

Personally, not for me... I rarely use my laptop at the current meets - mostly because the Wi-Fi in the Shoreline hates me, and never lets me connect.... So I use my own mobile Internet connectivity...

I'd like to think the meets were about people, than sitting in-front of a laptop typing away. I can do that at home/office.
