One inexpensive option that may work for some is the hotspot we just started using through Ting wireless. They offer a hotspot on the Sprint network for $25 per month for 30 gigs. We have lousy wifi at our marina and we have a wifi camera on the boat, so the hotspot function on our phones wasn't an option to monitor the boat when we are not there. You have to buy a Franklin hotspot from them, which I think was around $30. It comes with the SIM installed. The SIM will not work in other devices, it is somehow tied only to the hotspot supplied by Ting. The cell signal in our slip isn't great because of a nearby hill, but it works well enough to stream Netflix. Works even better once we are out on the water. As always, your mileage may vary.
