Once the convention season kicks in, you will likely face the long time question on what you should do about the WiFi needs of the attendees. Aside from the usual data needs of web surfing, email, texting, an app usage, you might also have several quite gripping business reasons for having a strong WiFi connection at the convention.
When contemplating on what you should be doing about WiFi, usually, there are two options available for you. You can spend money on the expensive and sometimes poorly performing internet that the convention venue offers itself or you can just to survive without a connection at all. But, if none of these two sounds appealing, there are several temporary convention internet options available for you.
Personal Mobile Hotspots
Personal mobile hotspots are not just good options for conventions as it is also ideal for travels and other environments where you might need an internet access. You just need to get a small unit that can connect to a cellular 4G LTE or 3G network and allows an internet connection cloud that can be shared to all the attendees provide that you are in close proximity. These hotspots are specific to particular providers so it is best to shop around to find the best one for you.
Individual Convention WiFi Packages
If you are not concerned about the price, there are now companies that will allow you to rent 4G signal that can maximize the reach within a packed convention center. There are now 4G internet kits available for rent for a good price. These packages are reliable as these have been especially tested at conventions and other events and promise that the signal will work directly with the devices with no interference from the rest of the WiFi devices.
Use Your Mobile Phone as a WiFi Hub
It is another good option to generate internet access when you are on the go. Many smartphones today can act as tethering device that will let you use a different device to grab the cellular internet connection of the phone and go online.
