Roam with Rover, a Pay-As-You-Go 4G Service
Posted in: 4G, mobile, Today's Chili
It might sound too good to be true, but
mobile rovers can now get unlimited WiMAX data service without
signing up for any pesky contracts. Introducing Rover, a pay-as-you-go 4G mobile broadband service and WiMAX modems.
The Rover Stick, a USB model, and Rover Puck, a 4G mobile hotspot. The Rover Stick is a 4GB USB modem that provides broadband to a laptop, netbook, or computer.
As a portable access point, the Rover Puck can share a single WiMAX connection with up to eight simultaneous Wi-Fi connected users, whether they are on laptops, netbooks, iPad, smartphones, or game consoles.
Both the Puck and Stick are compatible with Windows and Macs.
The Rover Puck also offers Wi-Fi b/g/n with built-in WPA/WEP encryption and can operate two SSIDs simultaneously. The Puck has a range of 100 feet and four hours of battery life.
3G is not available on either the Puck or the Stick. If you are not in a CLEAR service area, these modems will be useless.
There is a a 14-day no-hassle return policy on the Rover modems. New owners receive two days of free service to decide whether or not to keep the phones.
The pay-as-you-go plans are available at $5 a day, $20 a week, or $50 per month. Refills in $20 and $50 denominations will be sold in select stores and online.
The Rover Stick is available for $99.99
and the Rover Puck is priced at $149.99. The Rover modems are
available online and at CLEAR stores.
