Fast mobile hotspot device for travellers
A safe and reliable internet connection is vital to most of us when we travel. You can rely on wi-fi in hotels and public places, but that does come with security risks, and the speed and reliability of the connection can be quite limiting — especially if you are travelling with a troop of data-hungry children. Having your own mobile hotspot can solve all that. D-Link, a Taiwanese manufacturer of networking hardware and telecoms equipment, has unveiled a new device that enables users to stay connected on the go by sharing fast 4G-plus internet with up to 64 devices simultaneously, which can be vital if you are travelling with teenagers. The compact DWR-933M delivers fast, secure connectivity for smartphones, tablets, and laptops. It's easy to set up and use. Simply insert a data-enabled Nano SIM into the built-in SIM card slot, download the free D-Link Mobile Connect App (available on iOS and Android) and follow the prompts, and you're good to go. The DWR-933M combines the power of wi-fi 6 with dual-band support (2.4GHz and 5GHz) and speeds of up to 600Mbps, while 4G+ LTE Cat6 delivers download speeds up to 300Mbps. It also includes a USB-C port for convenient charging and supports WPA2 encryption for enhanced security. It has a 1.7-inch TFT display for status notifications and a built-in 3000mAh battery that provides up to 12 hours of typical use. The new D-Link DWR-933M Mobile Hotspot cost $99.95 and is available from and from all authorised D-Link retailers such as JB Hi-Fi and Officeworks.
