Wifi Pod Review

What is Wifi Pod?

The Wifi Pod is a small, square modem that does not need to be connected to the mains power supply during start-up. The router contains a rechargeable battery and can therefore be used comfortably on the road - that's why it is also called a "pocket modem". On the road, but of course also at home, the pocket modem WiFi Pod is designed to provide you with fast WLAN. According to the provider, the router incorporates 4G LTE technology that provides a fast Internet connection and is suitable for use by multiple devices at the same time.

According to the manufacturer, all Internet-capable devices can be connected. This includes not only smartphones and tablets, but also laptops, computers and even game consoles. It should be possible to use them not only in the vicinity of your own home, but all over the world.

Why do I need this modem?

In 2019, around 95 percent of all German households will already have an Internet connection. WLAN enables you to go online with your PC, your mobile phone or your SmartTV, browse the World Wide Web, use social media and stream videos. If you're not at home, you can still connect to the Internet via your smartphone and its data volume.

An Internet connection via data volume is usually not only expensive. It is also not as optimal as you would like it to be at every location. Fast Internet is not always available - often you don't even have a 3G network.

But once your data connection is fast enough to stream your favorite TV show on the train or video chat with your best friend, you'll use up a lot of data volume. If you've got enough traffic to last you the whole month, you'll be used up within a few days.

WiFi Pod is designed to solve both the problem of an Internet connection and the problem of using too much data on the road. The router is therefore suitable for anyone who likes to surf the web while on the go and doesn't want to enter public and usually insecure wireless networks. Possibly, everyone who owns a smartphone and likes to be on the road can benefit from the pocket modem.

Wifi Pod test and quality features

The quality of the provider behind the pocket modem is demonstrated by the fact that he has set up a German-language website for Germany, Austria and Switzerland - even though the company is originally from Spain.

It is difficult to measure the quality of the router against the provider's "satisfaction guarantee". More promising is the guarantee of one or two years, which you as a customer can buy for a few Euros. If the pocket modem would not be worth its money or would stand out due to bad quality, the provider would never give such a guarantee.

Quality characteristics can also be found in relation to the website. The order process, in which you enter your personal data, is therefore comprehensively protected. McAfee, TRUSTe, and Norton ensure that the sensitive information the customer enters is sent only to the seller. Third parties who may wish to misuse this information will not have access.
