Mobile WiFi "hotspots"? Opinions?
#4
RE: Mobile WiFi "hotspots"? Opinions?
The cellular Internet network (powered here by the Croatian T-COM ISP) appears to be faster on weekends, and generally more reliable, than the Internet connection provided by the Croatian Crisis Connection ISP.
The T-COM ISP, though, offers only limited bandwidth, if I pass the limit of 2000 MB, I need to pay 50 cents per every additional MB.
That has never happened to me, and I often use it. Especially on the weekends. On the Croatian Crisis Connection ISP, during the weekends, you are happy if you get a connection to the Internet (not a "connection timed out" or "server not found" to any website you try to connect to) at all, and you never get the promised 8 mbps speed. The T-COM ISP promises only 1.5 mbps, yet, during the weekends, it's usually significantly faster than the Crisis Connection ISP. 1.5 mbps appears to be good enough for everything except watching YouTube videos. You can only watch YouTube videos in the 144px quality, and quite a few YouTube videos don't offer that.
