Why this portable hotspot may be my favorite travel gadget of the year
"Over the past couple of weeks, I've been testing an interesting little gadget called the . It's about the size of a hockey puck (and even looks like one), with a simple purpose: to provide a strong, reliable Wi-Fi hotspot connection for personal devices when away from home. You won't have to gamble on spotty local networks or pay those outrageous roaming fees while traveling."
"Once you turn it on, scan the QR code at the bottom to activate the device. Then, you have to purchase a service plan with TravelFi so you can use the JourneyGo as intended. I'll list out the subscription details later because they relate to the device's overall cost. The JourneyGo supports up to 10 simultaneous connections from smartphones, laptops, desktop PCs, and even handheld gaming consoles like the Lenovo Legion Go S."
The JourneyGo is a pocket-sized hotspot that connects to cellphone towers and automatically selects the strongest signal to provide mobile internet access. Activation requires scanning a QR code and purchasing a TravelFi service plan. The device supports up to 10 simultaneous connections, including smartphones, laptops, desktop PCs, and handheld gaming consoles. The unit aims to replace unreliable local networks and avoid roaming fees while traveling, offering a dedicated alternative to smartphone tethering. Performance can be inconsistent in environments with heavy wireless congestion, with internet speeds fluctuating wildly under strong local interference.
