You can carry a Wi-Fi hotspot anywhere you go, thanks to the ultraportable MiFi 2352 router.

Singapore-based telco MobileOne (M1) and mobile broadband solutions provider Novatel Wireless have announced the ultraportable Wi-Fi router (MiFi 2352) for the Republic. The pocket-sized accessory measuring 98 x 62 x 13mm (slightly bigger than a credit card) and weighing less than 100g comes with a built-in battery capable of providing a maximum of 4 hours' continuous usage.

The router lets the user connect up to five Wi-Fi-enabled devices concurrently with maximum 7.2Mbps downlink and 5.76Mbps uplink broadband speeds. When switched on, the MiFi 2352 creates a personal Wi-Fi bubble with a radius of 10m, allowing the user to share the hotspot connectivity or make it a secured access point via the IP management page. So for example, if you are a student working on a project with a group of classmates in a non-hotspot zone, the MiFi 2352 will let you connect up to five people via the wireless router to access the Internet at the same time. The MiFi 2352 will be available in Singapore on Thursday when pricing will be revealed at the same time.
