Choose You Network
When you travel abroad you never know what networks will work best.

This will hardly happen to Verizon MiFi Jetpack 4620L Hotspot Modem! This portable Wi-Fi hotspot supports a number of standards so you will never be limited and will always get the best of its possibilities. No 4G in the country? No worries, Verizon mobile hotspot handles CDMA 2000, HSPA+, DC-HSPA+, and UMTS too.

What is a Mobile Hotspot
Internet has become a part of our lives we can't imagine being without. Social networks communication, work and entertainment, dating, purchases, keeping up with the news — all kinds of things are now done using the world network. Internet has come a long way, from the luxury spoiling your room with its wires to the inexpensive plans with modems and routers you can carry in your pocket. When your mobile Internet connection fails or limits you, the best speed and convenience along with the standalone operation will be provided by a Mobile Hotspot. Having purchased this device, you will never be offline again wherever you are and whatever you do.
If you go somewhere far from civilization or just are too busy to take a breather and charge your gadgets, there is no better device than a solar charger. It will extend your devices' operation time infinitely. And USB wireless adapters will come in handy if your laptop lacks the built-in Wi-Fi feature.
What Features to Compare
Service Provider
A mobile hotspot is intended to provide Internet connection to various devices via Wi-Fi. There are two options for portable hotspots: you can either buy one from an Internet service provider or choose an option offering any SIM support. Each provider has its own plans so the choice is fairly nice, everyone will find the plan working best for them. At the same time, if you tend to travel a lot, maybe the so-called international portable Wi-Fi hotspot will be better as you can buy local SIM cards in the countries you visit.
Specifications
The most important specifications you should think about are probably the number of users that can use the mobile hotspot at the same time and the maximum supported data transfer speed. For example, the LTE standard allows downloading data at up to 326.4 Mbit/s and uploading at up to 172.8 Mbit/s with lagging decreased to 5 milliseconds. In the USA, by the way, the LTE is spread over 78% of the territory. Then there are also the Wi-Fi standards (the letters "a/b/g/n/ac" after the 802.11 in the specs) the portable hotspot supports. The latest standard as of today is the 802.11ac which offers the increasing of throughput from around 433 Mbit/s (802.11n) to up to 6.77 Gbit/s. Quite an improvement, if you allow us to say.
Battery Operation and Usability
The battery operation time, obviously, affects the time you will be online before you need to charge your portable Wi-Fi hotspot. And as for usability, that's really custom. When choosing your mobile hotspot, look at its extra features like connectivity, display, memory card slots, etc. Chances are you will see something you could benefit from!
