Novatel Wireless MiFi 2372 for Bell Mobility
Posted on December 1, 2009
Novatel Wireless and Bell Mobility present to the blessed Canadians, the new MiFi 2372 Device. MiFi??? MiFi is mobile WiFi. It is a portable WiFi connectivity.
The MiFi 2372 Intelligent Mobile Hotspot operates on Bell Mobility’s 3G networks (HSPA). This gadget can allow almost 5 different WiFi-ready devices, located within 30 feet of it, to access the internet. The Bell Mobility MiFi 2372 portable WiFi hotspot is compatible with most of the OSs available in the market, like Windows, Mac and Linux. A download speed of up to 7.2Mbps is promised. The award winning mobile hotspot is also capable of multi-tasking. Uploading and downloading can be handled at the same time, even if the files are large. A microSD card slot is housed in this device as well, for memory expansion and data sharing. This slot can hold a maximum capacity of 16GB.
This MiFi 2372 intelligent mobile hotspot is available with the Canadian carrier, Bell Mobility, for a 3-year contract and it costs close to $100. For those people who do not wish to be tied up with a contract, the gadget is available for $249.95. Sadly, there has been no mention if this device will make its way to the UK shores.
Setting up CyanogenMod as a mobile WiFi hotspot has probably saved our marriage (while Bell dicks around trying to connect us).
Dear Canada, you’ve been very patient but your MiFi wait is over. Having announced back in October that the Novatel Wireless MiFi 2372 “intelligent mobile hotspot” was coming to Bell Mobility in November 2009, the carrier has waited until the very end of the month to put the 3G-sharing battery powered router on sale. However, on sale it is, and as of today Canadians looking to share a single 3G HSDPA/HSUPA connection between up to five WiFi devices can do so for $99.95 with a new, three year agreement. Alternatively the MiFi 2372 is available contract-free from Bell Mobility for $249.95. The device is functionally identical to the MiFi 2352 we reviewed earlier this year, and includes a microSD card slot for sharing the content of up to 16GB cards between any wirelessly-connected device.
