Hi all,

Looking form some inivative adivce.

Got 8 Staff all working from home on laptops , office has a server which has a ups & Genny, so we were doing the right thing and working from home in Covid.

As much as we try we cant equip every staff member with a generator at home.
My solution is R250 rain cards that can be used when power is down, drawing power from top.

So the question really becomes, what modems do I use that are cheap or do I use cheap cellphones as wifi hotspots at the staff houses ?

Anyone has any experice or got a smart idea ?

Mifi devices should be OK. There are a bunch on takealot. Cheaper than routers.
