Should I Buy A Wifi Router Or A Cheap Phone As Hotspot Need Urgent Advice by Nobody: 7:58pm On Apr 25, 2018 |
Please people of this section I am thinking of getting a device that will serve as Hotspot for personal use at home because Mtn works excellently from a Hotspot device than using mobile data directly, I want to know if it's advisable to buy a wifi router or a small phone to use as Hotspot, let me know your suggestions on which one is cheaper and more efficient, thank you |

It's depends 1. What devices do you intend connecting and what do you use the internet for primarily? Laptop ? Smart TV, gaming console for online gaming? If these are what you need the internet for the get a WiFi router If it's just for browsing social.media and checking emails then a phone should suffice 2 Likes |

Tochyodiks:Get a wifi router and connect with your phone via wifi. It will save your battery a lot and the price range is between 14k-16k naira. It shouldn't exceed that. All the very best. 1 Like |
