    A spare Android phone could act as a hotspot. Put in a GOMO sim.

    That's what I bring when we stay in hotels and Airbnb. It provides hotspot for the security camera I leave in the room to look over our stuff (only if I can't use the hotel's WiFi).

    A spare Wyze Cam v2. But any small USB-powered WiFi camera should suffice.

    Before we leave the room, I set it up to start recording to an SD card and the cloud whenever it detects movement. So even if they somehow find, deactivate, or steal the camera, there's a very good chance the perp can still be identified using the copy on the cloud.

    I have a problem. My Uncle and Auntie from the US are here on vacation. Their phones are locked sa provider nila (verizon ata) so they can't use a local sim

    How can they have wifi or data using their phone? Or is it better to buy a super cheap smart phone na lang? Meron ba na P2k lang hahaha

    Get a pocket wifi for them or just get a cheap phone for them and a local sim.

    Before the pandemic and when my phone was still locked, I use services like these when traveling abroad. I just order online ahead of my arrival date and pickup the hotspot at the airport on my arrival. On my flight home, I just dropped it off at the same kiosk in the airport. You just need to arrive early as the kiosk is often located nearer to the arrival gates.

    Later on, I was ordering prepaid SIM cards which I still have to pickup at the airport, but just throw away after the trip.

    Now, eSIMs are king. Nothing to pickup or return. Just order online, install it, and it's ready to use once you land.

    you can download Apps like Airalo or Ubigi.
    They will activate an esim fro you depending on what country you are in.
    no need to go to any stores to buy esim.
    i have used them and it works well naman.
