Mifi?

[The_Unnamed]

I am looking for a MiFi (Or similar) router to use with the 8ta 10Gb promo. I am just struggling to find any locally.

I know there are a few threads already on the forum i am just wondering if there is more up to date information around.

Any info will be appreciated

Sometimes cheaper, and works with other networks, including Cell C.

Yes, it is better but you never realize those faster speeds (BTW, I have both).

With the Vodafone R201 can you have it plugged in and still acting as a wireless hotspot?

Good question. Likewise with the R205?

Yes. At least that is how it worked when I plugged it into my Linux Laptop. I had to to get it to charge as battery was low and someone had to share the connection and did so with WiFi. Obviously it did not install the software cause run Linux on my machine. Not sure how this would go down on a Windoze machine.

It works fine and then you get an extra connection.
