Default Verizon MiFi for Snowbirds
Is there anyone here who is using a Verizon mifi (I think 4G) mobile hotspot exclusively for internet access both in TV and up north?

All my contracts are up, and I am trying to figure out whether to go with a $50/mo Verizon mifi device with 4G service or whether to get separate internet plans both here and up north, and put them "on vacation" when I can.

Is this one device really sufficient? How much are you on the computer? And do you also need a modem and/or router, or is this all you need?

We would probably use 2-4 hours of email, web surfing and linking to a few videos daily, no video games, don't stream tv shows or movies or download music.
