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.
I was using one of those, it was supposed to be $50/month ended up being $100 just Internet. One might be good for one place and not the other it depends on how much you use it and if you are in a brick building it doesn't work well at all

I was using the USB device Virgin Mobile | Shop Broadband2Go Devices
