The article discusses the importance of mobile hotspots, especially during unexpected outages like the one the author experienced in New York City. Faced with a sudden AT&T network failure, the author managed to stay connected by seeking out public Wi-Fi and reflecting on the benefits of using mobile hotspots extensively. While discussing types of hotspots—including public, private, and mobile—the author invites readers to reconsider the practical applications of mobile hotspots, even in home settings, despite the common reliance on traditional broadband internet.
"That's where a hotspot comes in and works wonders. I never realized how useful it is to stay connected with my phone as a mobile hotspot".
"Looking back, I realized this unplanned network outage could have been much worse if I hadn't found a hotspot to reconnect."
"But have you ever thought about using a mobile hotspot at home? I know what you might be thinking: Isn't that counterintuitive when you can just use your traditional home internet connection?"
