class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Portable WiFi, also known as MiFi, portable Internet or mobile Internet<\/strong>, is a solution that allows you to access the Internet anywhere using a device such as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/asistencia\/router\/\">WiFi router or modem<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are wondering <strong>what a MiFi device is<\/strong>, it is a small wireless router with a SIM card that connects to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/que-es-4g\/\">4G<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/que-es-5g\/\">5G<\/a> mobile networks and creates a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/wifi\/\">WiFi<\/a> network. Devices such as your phone, tablet or laptop can then connect to it without any cables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, <strong>what is MiFi used for<\/strong>? Its main purpose is to provide <strong>high-speed Internet access<\/strong> wherever you are, making it an ideal option for <strong>remote working, travelling or enjoying online entertainment<\/strong> without interruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also <strong>a flexible and portable alternative to<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/internet-satelital\/\"><strong>satellite Internet<\/strong><\/a> and other limited types of connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_difference_between_portable_WiFi_and_MiFi_Are_they_the_same\"><\/span>What is the difference between portable WiFi and MiFi? Are they the same?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people wonder <strong>what MiFi is<\/strong> and whether it is the same as <strong>portable WiFi<\/strong>. Although the two terms are related and are sometimes used interchangeably, there are some key differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Portable WiFi<\/strong> is a broad term that refers to any solution that allows you to connect to the Internet without a fixed connection. This includes <strong>portable routers, mobile hotspots<\/strong> and even using a smartphone as a hotspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>MiFi<\/strong>, on the other hand, was originally a trademark used for <strong>MiFi WiFi devices<\/strong> that work as <strong>wireless routers with a SIM card<\/strong>, allowing a mobile data connection to be shared with several devices at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time, the term <strong>MiFi<\/strong> has become widely used to describe any device of this kind, although technically not all <strong>portable WiFi routers<\/strong> are <strong>MiFi devices<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_portable_WiFi\"><\/span>Benefits of portable WiFi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main <strong>benefits of portable WiFi<\/strong> include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Connect anywhere:<\/strong> a MiFi router connects to 4G or 5G mobile networks, giving you Internet access wherever there is coverage. You do not need to rely on fixed WiFi networks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Faster speeds:<\/strong> 4G and 5G networks generally provide faster and more stable browsing than public WiFi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Easy to use and set up:<\/strong> simply switch on the router, insert a SIM card with mobile data and you are ready to go. Your devices will detect the WiFi network created by the MiFi router.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>No contract:<\/strong> mobile plans such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/tarifas-movil\/\">Lowi\u2019s 5G plans<\/a> do not require a minimum contract period. This makes them ideal if you only need a MiFi device for a few months. You can also reuse the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/que-es-sim\/\">SIM card<\/a> in a tablet or another device.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Portable and easy to carry:<\/strong> portable WiFi routers are lightweight and compact, with built-in batteries that make them easy to take anywhere without having to keep them plugged into a power supply.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connection outside Spain:<\/strong> as you may already know, Lowi\u2019s 5G plans include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/roaming\/\">roaming<\/a>. If you travel outside Spain, you can take your portable MiFi router with you and stay connected wherever you go.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connect several devices:<\/strong> you can connect smartphones, laptops, tablets, speakers and games consoles at the same time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Security:<\/strong> most portable WiFi routers allow you to protect the network with a password and include a firewall.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their ease of use, portability and ability to connect several devices <strong>make portable WiFi an excellent solution<\/strong> for both travel and everyday use. If you are looking for a flexible option with no long-term commitment, a portable MiFi router is a great choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uses_and_applications_of_portable_Internet\"><\/span>Uses and applications of portable Internet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Portable WiFi<\/strong> has become a popular solution for a wide range of uses, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Working as a digital nomad or <strong>working remotely from anywhere<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Providing Internet access in temporary accommodation<\/strong>, such as a caravan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Having an <strong>Internet connection while travelling by car<\/strong>, caravan, boat or another form of transport.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Staying connected with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/internet-segunda-residencia\/\"><strong>Internet at your second home<\/strong><\/a> or in a location without fibre coverage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating a <strong>portable WiFi network at events or business meetings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sharing an Internet connection in areas with limited coverage.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keeping children entertained<\/strong> on long journeys by giving them Internet access.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Playing online on a games console<\/strong> wherever you are.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>IRL streaming<\/strong>, an increasingly popular type of content on streaming platforms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you are travelling, need a stable connection at a second home or want to enjoy activities such as <strong>streaming and online gaming<\/strong>, a <strong>portable MiFi router<\/strong> gives you Internet access anywhere with mobile coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5G_plans_for_MiFi\"><\/span>5G plans for MiFi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/tarifas-movil\/\">Lowi\u2019s 5G plans<\/a> are ideal for MiFi devices, with competitive options to suit different usage needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"scroll-mobile-hint\">\ud83d\udc49 <em>Swipe the table sideways to see more<\/em> \ud83d\udc48<\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto;

They are useful for sharing a fixed connection but <strong>are not suitable as portable solutions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is always important to <strong>consider factors such as connection speed, network coverage and intended use<\/strong> to ensure that the device you choose meets your specific needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Features_and_technical_specifications_of_portable_routers\"><\/span>Features and technical specifications of portable routers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing a <strong>portable WiFi router<\/strong>, <strong>portable MiFi router<\/strong> or <strong>5G MiFi device<\/strong>, you should consider several key features to ensure a stable, fast and secure connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Speed_and_coverage_range\"><\/span>Speed and coverage range<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>5G MiFi router<\/strong> is the best option if you are looking for maximum speed, reaching up to <strong>2Gbps<\/strong> on fifth-generation networks. <strong>4G LTE<\/strong> models, meanwhile, provide speeds of up to <strong>150Mbps<\/strong>, which is sufficient for smooth browsing and streaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the model and network conditions, these devices can provide WiFi coverage across an indoor area of up to <strong>250m\u00b2<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Battery_life\"><\/span>Battery life<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Portable MiFi routers<\/strong> feature <strong>long-lasting batteries<\/strong>, providing between <strong>6 and 24 hours of battery life<\/strong>. This makes them an excellent solution for anyone who needs Internet access while travelling or in areas without access to a power supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some models can even <strong>charge other devices via USB<\/strong>, allowing them to function as a <strong>portable power bank<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Size_and_weight\"><\/span>Size and weight<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>portable WiFi router<\/strong> is usually <strong>compact and lightweight<\/strong>, measuring approximately <strong>100mm<\/strong> and weighing between <strong>100 and 250 grams<\/strong>. This makes it easy to carry in a backpack, handbag or suitcase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Larger models with a <strong>wider signal range<\/strong> are also available and are designed to connect more devices simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Connections_and_ports\"><\/span>Connections and ports<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These devices may include <strong>USB ports for sharing files<\/strong> or charging devices, <strong>Ethernet ports<\/strong> for connecting to the Internet by cable, a SIM card slot and an external antenna connector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Security\"><\/span>Security<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>portable MiFi router<\/strong> must provide a secure connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is why most devices include a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/glosario\/que-es-un-firewall-o-cortafuegos\/\"><strong>firewall<\/strong><\/a>, advanced <strong>WPA2\/WPA3 encryption<\/strong> and custom passwords. Some models also include <strong>content filters<\/strong>, allowing you to control access to certain websites and connected devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_choosing_the_best_portable_WiFi_router\"><\/span>Tips for choosing the best portable WiFi router<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When buying a portable WiFi router, keep the following <strong>tips<\/strong> in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Choose a 4G LTE or 5G router<\/strong> for high speeds. 3G networks are now outdated in terms of browsing speed, although 3G routers are generally the most affordable option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Consider the coverage you need<\/strong> and how many devices you want to connect.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure the battery provides the <strong>level of autonomy you need<\/strong>. Around eight hours is usually sufficient.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compare speed, number of connections, signal range and security features<\/strong> across different models.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Look for a compact, lightweight design<\/strong> that is easy to carry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure it is <strong>compatible with your mobile provider\u2019s frequency bands<\/strong>. Ideally, it should support both <strong>2.4GHz and 5GHz bands<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unlocked routers work with any SIM card<\/strong>, giving you greater flexibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want greater flexibility, an <strong>unlocked portable MiFi router<\/strong> will allow you to use any SIM card, making it ideal for travelling or switching mobile providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_your_phone_as_a_router\"><\/span>Use your phone as a router<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another way to access portable Internet is to <strong>use your own smartphone as a WiFi router<\/strong> by sharing your mobile data connection. You can also use an old phone as a portable Internet device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simply <strong>activate the hotspot or WiFi sharing option in your phone\u2019s settings<\/strong>. You can then connect your other devices via WiFi or a USB cable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take a look at <strong>Lowi\u2019s 5G plans<\/strong>, which include options such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/tarifas-movil\/mas-barata\/\">the cheapest mobile plan<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lowi.es\/tarifas-movil\/mejor-tarifa-gigas\/\">the mobile plan with the most data<\/a>. Find the Lowi plan that best suits your needs when sharing mobile data from your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It is convenient and does not require you to buy another device<\/strong>, but it can drain your phone\u2019s battery quickly. Portable routers are therefore a better option for prolonged use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a portable WiFi router in your pocket, you will no longer need to depend on fixed networks or lose access to your favourite content and apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, you should <strong>bear in mind the limitations of sharing data from your phone<\/strong>. Thanks to its antennas, a portable 5G router offers a wider coverage range, faster connection speeds and support for more devices connected simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions_about_MiFi_and_portable_WiFi_routers\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions about MiFi and portable WiFi routers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-faq uagb-faq__outer-wrap uagb-block-c0378f9c uagb-faq-icon-row uagb-faq-layout-accordion uagb-faq-expand-first-true uagb-faq-inactive-other-true uagb-faq__wrap uagb-buttons-layout-wrap uagb-faq-equal-height     \" data-faqtoggle=\"true\" role=\"tablist\"><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.lowi.es\\\/blog\\\/portable-wifi-mifi\\\/\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How do I set up a portable WiFi router?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Setting up a <strong>portable WiFi router<\\\/strong> or <strong>portable MiFi router<\\\/strong> is very simple.
