Currently have unlimited cellular with Verizon with somewhat older (soon to be upgraded) iPhone. Very interested in adding Shakespeare 5239 WiFi antenna but curious as to what goes on the inboard end of it (the hotspot). Have read numerous reviews about 3rd-party hotspot devices available. Am still unsure of capabilities and necessary hardware.
Needs are mostly modest - 1, 2 devices max; streaming infrequent except for pure recreation; document downloads & uploads more common (file size >100mb); usual social media and Web browsing, etc..
The important exception is for (part-time but lucrative) online job which wants moderately fast, reliable, ‘wired’ WiFi system for live Internet interaction (e.g., Zoom & the like).
Question - what (other than pure cellular phone-based service) are you using to approximate (as well as one can) home-like Internet access whilst on the hook or underway? Or is the true best plan simply relying on whatever you can get out of a 4G cellular plan? - and, if so, what are those drawbacks?
