How your connection really works when traveling
Did you know?
- When you roam abroad with your regular mobile operator, your traffic is sent back to your country of residence, keeping your IP the same.
- On the other hand, connecting to local Wi-Fi gives you a local IP, but often lacks the speed and reliability of mobile broadband.
Ubigi stands out and offers the best of both worlds!
