WiFi coverage is limited to the presence of a modem such as a telephone operator’s box or a WiFi point. WiFi uses a local wireless network for the transport of information. However, you must be near a modem or an access point.
Mobile Internet uses a telephone network (and therefore a SIM card provided by the chosen operator) for the transport of information.
If you already have an Internet connection, you can choose the WiFi tablet, otherwise prefer the WiFi + 3G or 4G tablet and contact a mobile operator to take out a subscription and obtain a SIM card.
| Functions | Wireless | 3G and 4G mobile internet |
|---|---|---|
| Internet | WiFi access point | Sim card with subscription |
| Where to use it? | Near a WiFi access often limited to a building | Anywhere you have a connection |
All operators offer a range of subscription ranging from occasional use to more extensive use. Some have special offers for tablets like Orange , SFR or Bouygues Telecom . 3G or 4G coverage in your region is a criterion of choice.
