Loving the 4G Speed With My NetZero 4G Mobile HotSpot #NetZero4G #spon

As a mom of three I am constantly on the go.  Whether it be for swim lessons, picking up the kids from school or visiting family, we are always going somewhere.  I have also been traveling a little more as a blogger and I am amazed to see how bad free WiFi can be and how scarce it is.  As a blogger obviously being connected to the Internet is a must for me and I admit I get a little twitchy if I don’t check my email every few hours.  Now yes I have a smartphone but honestly I hate typing on it and I definitely can’t work from it.  I suppose I could try to do a hotspot off my phone but I don’t even know how that works and if that would eat away at our data plan.

A separate hotspot is what I need and with NetZero I found that I can get fast speeds wherever I go, without spending an arm and a leg!  A hotspot is great because it can connect multiple devices at one time wherever you need Internet.  So yes while in a car you can get Internet, while sitting in a park – Internet, while at grandma’s who doesn’t even understand what the Internet is – yep Internet there too!

NetZero 4G Mobile Broadband hotspot is a way to get Internet wherever you need, whether on the go or at home, because we all know how reliable home Internet can be at times.  There are definite times at home when I feel like Comcast is slowing down my speed or just kicking me off (like around 11:45 PM every night) and with NetZero I can just hop onto that at home!

Setting up NetZero is super easy.  Just turn on your device, charge it if needed, search for the network and log in!  Its like your own personal portable router and modem in one.  There are no contracts, no commitments, no overage charges to worry about.  Just pick the data plan you think you need and with contracts starting at just $9.95 per month its affordable.  You can even try the service for up to one year for free with the purchase of a NetZero device (the Free plan though is only 200 MB which is not very much at all.)

The Monthly Data Plans:

• Free ($0):  200MB
• Basic ($9.95):  500MB
• Plus ($19.95):  1 GB
• Pro ($34.95):  2 GB
• Platinum ($49.95):  4GB

There are two devices you can buy, both are lightweight and portable:  Hotspot and Stick.  While the stick is cheaper it supports only one user at a time via USB.  The NetZero Hotspot supports up to 8 simultaneous Wi-Fi enabled devices withing 150 feet.  Yes 8 devices at one time!  That means I could connect via my laptop, my husband our iPad, my one son our Android Xyboard and my other son the iPod Touch.  Yes we are a techie family, and I can only imagine how much more we will be when my kids get into their teen years!

NetZero 4G Mobile Broadband offers a two plans for customers to meet their data needs.  Lightspeed is designed for email and web browsing while conserving data usage, with downoads at up to 1 Mbit/s.  Warpspeed is designed for email, web browsing and video while maximizing speed, downloads at up to 1 Mbit/s.  Customers in ANY and ALL data plans can switch back and forth between the two speeds to conserve or maximize.

So no more going without the Internet, dealing with slow speeds from free WiFi or worse yet worrying about what you are doing on public Wifi.  The NetZero Hotspot is secure and encrypted to keep your data safe in your own private Internet connection.  The coverage is available in over 80 U.S. cities, with hopefully more on the way!

So connecting is super easy, how is the connection you may ask?  Awesome!  I haven’t had any problems and it actually seems better than the expensive Internet I pay for at home!  I have full bars for my WiFi connection with the NetZero 4G Mobile Broadband and I only have three bars when I connect with my Comcast!  The best feature by far though is that the Hotspot device holds a charge for up to 6 hours!  There are many times when I am traveling when I am not by an outlet and this is a huge plus for me.
