Anyone use a mobile hotspot for travel?

Looking into one & can't use my phone b/c I have an unlimited data plan so they won't let me tether.  Looking for ideas on other ways

thanks

We used to have one, but have since switched to tethering. We don't have unlimited data, so tethering is simpler.

do you remember what you used to use? 

MrsAmers

Sorry, no.

I dont' have one, but I have a friend who uses a mifi and he's been happy with it.

DH has used the verizon one for years and is reasonably happy from what I know.  (I borrowed it a number of times, and was similarly happy.)  I think the biggest thing to remember is that it is still dependent on connection/phone signal, so it's not a miracle worker, but he needs constant access, and has used it in the car and traveling a whole bunch.  It is through work, so I can't speak to prices, etc.
