Verizon MiFi 2200

The Verizon MiFi 2200 is about the size of 5 stacked credit cards and weighs just over 2 ounces, so it’s very portable. With the MiFi 2200, you can use the Internet in a car, RV, boat, train, bus, at the beach or park… anytime, anywhere.

The MiFi 2200 is the first mobile broadband device to combine both a modem and a mobile router. The WiFi range is about 30 feet and up to 5 users or WiFi enabled devices like the Ipod Touch and game systems can be connected to the MiFi at the same time.

The battery-powered mobile broadband device is totally wireless. The battery will last about 40 hours in standby mode or up to 5 hours while using. There is also a USB power cable that will recharge the battery and also allow the unit to run longer than 5 hours.

Even though the MiFi 2200 is a very tiny device, it does not sacrifice security. Keep your connection safe with password protection, CDMA authentication and identification, dynamic Mobile IP (MIP) key update, Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) firewall, VPN pass-through, and more.

With an optional microSD card, up to 16GB of data including music, video, games and other programs can be stored on the MiFi and accessed through the web interface. It will also run applications that incorporate the MiFi’s GPS capability, provide auto-VPN access, allow automatic email synch, and much more.

If you want the portability of the MiFi, but occasionally need to connect more devices or need a greater WiFi range, then the MiFi 2200 in combination with a Cradlepoint router will offer the best of both worlds. Put the MiFi in your pocket and go. Then when you get back to the office or home, attach it to the Cradlepoint router via the USB cable. There is also an optional car adapter for the Cradlepoint router, so you can take the router with you, too.

If you’re looking for a mobile broadband device that’s extremely portable, shares the connection and has built-in security, then the Verizon MiFi 2200 from Verizon Wireless is a great choice.
