WiMAX offers high-speed communication in cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya. As the areas connected by 5G are increasing, it is recommended for those seeking faster communication speeds. It is one of the few mobile Wi-Fis in Japan that can be used without data restrictions, like a fiber optic line.

The terms of service of the telecommunications provider offering this Pocket WiFi state that the connection speed may be restricted during peak hours if a large amount of data is used within a certain period. However, based on our usage data, none of our users have experienced any speed restrictions from January 2024 through September 2026.
