What's an AirCard?

                                                                  

An AirCard is a wireless modem used to connect devices to the internet using wireless network (cellular network) and are typically used with laptop or notebook style computers. Where older AirCards such as PCMIA’s and Express cards, some of which were able to connect peripheral devices, are still in use,  more modern devices such as USB modems, sometimes incorporating external antennas, have become much more common and are now the norm.

Modern USB modems are able to deliver 3G or 4G(LTE) performance in areas with excellent signal strength and 3G performance is still usually available as signal strength diminishes in more rural areas. People wonder about 5G modems, and if they give faster speed. There are four modem brands that make the 5G chip; MediaTek, Huawei, Qualcomm, and Samsung. As modern USB modems are very small and powered by the device they provide the connection for, many people prefer them for their portability, signal strength, ease of use and not having to rely on their phone or WiFi hotspots.

AirCard modems are available from a variety of device manufacturers and through the major cellular  providers. AirCards do require a data plan and a SIM card, but prices vary with data usage requirements and there is a possibility of device/carrier compatibility issues so check with your wireless, or cellular provider and device manufacturer for complete details prior to your purchase. Auditel can audit the aircard invoices and bring you savings without any change of services. We can also help you maintain an accurate telecom and wireless inventory. Give us a call today 

WiFi and MiFi. What’s the difference?

Though many people think of them as devices, WiFi and MiFi are trademarked brand names. But what is the difference in WiFi and MiFi? In short, one carries the WiFi signal and is a device, while the other is the technology behind the signal.

WiFi™ is a (now) series of wireless network protocols, based on and designed to meet the various IEEE 802.11 standards. The name is owned by the WiFi Alliance, a non-profit organization that certifies that wireless devices meet the various IEEE 802.11 standards and conform to certain standards of interoperability. For various reasons, not all devices that work as compliant devices have been certified by the WiFi Alliance. WiFi is a device standard technology that is used to describe the connection to the web, but it’s not an actual device. Your 5G smartphone has a chip in it that connects you to the internet, but the technology behind the chip that connects all of your devices including your laptop, and data cards to the MiFi, or hotspot is WiFi.

Did you know that your smartphone has WiFi signal indicator showing the waves or bars of antenna strength? This WiFi signal displays your coverage or Wi-Fi area in bars of strength. These are also called your WiFi signal antenna strength. Without this WiFi signal your devices won’t connect with the internet.

MiFi™ on the other hand, does refer to actual devices. MiFi was trademarked as a brand name by the (then) Novatel Wireless company (now Inseego Corp.). Though there are exceptions to the trademarking, e.g. wireless operator 3 in the U.K and MiFi Networks Pvt Ltd in India. Some people call MiFi a router since it is a piece of equipment, while others call it a hotspot.

MiFi devices are essentially mobile hotspots and are sold by quite a few companies with a variety of available features and functionality. Most MiFi devices will support 3G, 4G, and now many support 5G technology. They are available at varying price points with such features as SD cards for additional data storage, backward compatibility and GPS functionality to name a few. In November, 2019 the first 5G MiFi device supporting up to 16 devices was launched by Vodafone Qata along with Inseego Corp. (a pioneer in 5G and IoT device-to-cloud solutions). Tech is constantly changing but knowing the tech terms can help you understand what devices you need and the signals you need to access the internet.

Auditel focuses on bringing telecom refunds from billing mistakes and errors inside your tech invoices. Did you know that most states collect higher taxes, surcharges, and fees on wireless services than on other taxable goods and services? telecom technology taxes collected in error. Many of these telecom tax errors come from mistakes in tech devices, mobile assets, data usages, telecom taxes, telecom surcharges, telecom tariffs, in both telecom regulated services and non-regulated service monthly fees and charges.

Another reason we focus on find ways to reduce or remove taxes that your company should not be paying for or

We work for our clients to collect telecom refunds for wired and wireless telecom contract violations, telecom contract non-compliances, and in wireless contract non compliances as well. Telecommunication invoices contain a variety of local taxes, state taxes, and surcharges for each state, along with federal fees and usage charges, USF, FUSF, 9-1-1 or 911 fees.
