RovAir Mobile Broadband Rental Plans & Prices

<< (Page 3 of 4: RovAir Mobile Broadband Rental Review) >>

In an interesting shift from last year, there are now two services (instead of one):

  1. Mobile Broadband Rental
  2. Prepaid Mobile Broadband (called RovAir On-Demand)

What’s the difference?

With mobile broadband rental, you to rent a broadband card without having to purchase it. On the other hand, with prepaid mobile broadband you own the broadband card or device and purchase ‘credit’ for use when needed. As you might expect, there are different pricing structures for each.

RovAir’s pricing changes based on which of the 4 broadband devices you’re renting:

“RovAir On-Demand” is a new service offered by RovAir for those who need wireless mobile broadband more than “the casual traveler” but can’t warrant a two year commitment to a wireless carrier. With the ability to activate and de-activate your wireless 3G/4G card on demand, we can connect you only when and where you need it.

Who should consider On-Demand?

  • If you need wireless mobile broadband service sporadically through the month. In general, more than 5 days per month but less than 150 days per year is ideal.
  • If you have a built in Verizon or Sprint compatible 3G wireless card in your computer (you must know the ESN or if you currently own an inactive Verizon or Sprint 3G wireless card.

Who should not consider On-Demand?

  • If you only require wireless mobile broadband a couple times a year. In this case it would be less costly using the standard RovAir service.
  • You require internet access more than 150 days per year spread out over the entire year. In this case you would be better off simply signing a contract with one of the wireless carriers.

To get RovAir On-Demand, you’ll need a deactivated card from Sprint or Verizon or purchase one from Rov-Air. The minimum time you can use the service for is 30 days (billed at $5.95 per day or $178.50 per month).

For this to make financial sense for you, carefully consider just how often you need mobile broadband. Otherwise, a prepaid mobile broadband solution may save you more money.
