Why is a portable router so useful

In this days of internet connection begin part of our life one thing that is becoming popular are the portable routers

So what is a portable router?, is a simple router that is pocket size and you can bring anywhere when you travel or move outside your home. And why I need it?.

Well is convenience, a small device that create a private WIFI network using another WIFI or LAn or even USB network stick as source of internet connection and share internet to all your other devices that are signed on.

Small size and with a lot of input and output ports and some models come with a battery included.

And this is the point that makes a portable router even better, if you traveling with your family and you have 5 members, you at least will need to configure +5 devices to use the internet, use the annoying website to sign in for each one in case you are in an hotel or airport, and some devices can’t even sign in, is a half hour of patience to do it

With the portable router, just sign in to your hotel or airport internet using your phone as interface, then enable share internet an all other people will connect to that router easily, better if they already have the password in their devices, it will work like they never went to another place, no hassle, done once, more time to enjoy the day.
