TOP 7 Mobile Hotspots For Your Photo Booth
Which Mobile Hotspot Is Best For You? See Chart Below
A Mobile Hotspot is used to provide an internet connection for your photo booth (or any device for that matter) so that you can email or upload photos to social media websites live from your event. These devices also act as routers, allowing multiple connections at once. This will allow your PC, MC, Phone to share files and photos between connected devices easily and without an internet signal. Many photobooth softwares allow emails and uploads to be queued and sent later, when an internet connection is available. This would be a perfect solution to doing just that. If a wireless connection is all you’re after you will need to compare the networks.
Some Hotspots will work better than others since they all rely on a cellular data signal and not all service providers have equal data coverage. This can be problematic, when you try to connect to the internet on location but cannot find a signal. This is most apparent in rural areas outside of major metropolitan areas, where cell towers are readily accessible. Generally speaking, choosing a Hotspot with a service provider that has a higher coverage area will increase the reliability of your device overall. Consequently, Verizon Wireless has the largest 4G network in the U.S. therefore making it the most reliable wireless Hotspot provider in this list of Hotspots below. Most Hotspot providers require you to sign a 2 year contract, but not all. Please find the two most popular options below for mobile hotspot no contract.
