What is a Verizon Jetpack 4G mobile hotspot?

A Verizon Jetpack 4G LTE mobile hotspot is a portable modem that uses a cellular connection to provide Internet service while away from the home or office. The hotspot network is available in 178 markets worldwide.

As part of the purchase, those who buy the router commit to a 2-year plan with a choice of data packages. A five or 10 G package is available and there is a surcharge for exceeding the limit each month, according to laptopmag.com.

The device can be charged with a USB cord but needs a external adapter to function while charging. The Verizon network is extensive and considered one of the fastest available on the current market.
