Not everyone can get a cable or DSL Internet connection in their home…especially in rural areas. Cellular service, though, reaches pretty far these days. And in the past few years all three major cellular providers in the United States have rolled out broadband Internet via cellular signals. New technology developments allow users to easily use USB mobile broadband adapters (the little gadgets that pick up the wireless signals) with a desktop just as easily as a laptop.All three big providers offer plans starting at $60 per month for 5GB of data transfer.
5 GB of Internet data translates into about double or triple what the average daily emailer and web surfer would need in a typical month.
Speeds for mobile (cellular) broadband compare favorably with a moderate DSL connection…about 500-900 kbps with even high speeds in some areas of the country.
If you can’t get DSL or cable Internet where you live and satellite service seems a little too pricey, then looking into cellular broadband would be a good idea. If you use a laptop and travel quite a bit, then a cellular broadband package makes even more sense to give you uninterrupted Internet access on the road and at your destination…no hunting for wi-fi.
