Ive been interested in the thought of mobile wifi. For myself when we go wheeling I have no cell service. I could honestly see using the wifi alot... I live in manitoba canada but any advice would be great

Chances are if you don't get cell service then you won't get an Internet connection unless you go satellite which would be big bucks if assume. We use mobile air cards in my work vehicles, which rely on cell towers.

Same deal here- my "mifi" (wifi for 5 devices) gets the same cell signal that my phone hotspot does. If you lose cell service then you lose mobile wifi.

when out and about, i use BGAN. it is not expensive when it comes to the tech, but its not cheap.

You can check out the spot connect though. it is simple, and small, and maybe what you want.

Delorme has a unit that connects with tablets for nav and messaging duties. No connection for internet however. But the critical stuff is covered.
