I have the following question: I need to get a mobile broadband hotspot. Currently the telstra website shows the 4GX hotspot at $149 and the 4GX Wi-Fi Pro at $119. However, when clicking on buy online for the 4GX

The cheapest new Android phone that Kogan offers is $159. Second hand phones are cheaper. Why do you want a dedicated Wifi device when you could get a phone that does it as well as other things?

I have a phone (Blackberry KeyOne) and use it as a hotspot, with Vodafone. It works OK but there are often congestion issues, dropouts etc. I have no home broadband. The reason I need an additional wifi device is that I am now working from home and have to deliver lectures and tutorials of various sizes via Zoom over the coming weeks. The problem is exacerbated by having to deal with computer illiterate and obstinate people. For example: I am asked to run a Zoom session with 100 students and at the same time stream a recording to all of them, and also take questions, etc.
