As we were planning for travel around Australia in our caravan I wanted to have something more akin to our WiFi setup at home rather than just relying on tethering from our phones. Checking out the options available at the time I settled on the MiFi 3G Modem that was available through our broadband provider Internode.
This device was quite sleek, could easily fit in ones pocket and could handle up to 5 connections. When using it in the caravan we can plug it in and it connects well with our WiFi HP 5560 Printer. The plan that we decided on was for 5 Gigabytes a month which is stopped when the limit is reached so that no overcharging is possible and this can be supplemented in the short term with additional gigabytes as required. This is provided via the Optus network, which I am hoping will provide reasonable coverage on our Australian leg. In any event I have upgraded my Telstra data account to 6.5 Gigabytes per month (more on that later) in case we really get stuck.
