Can I use the rented portable wifi on the cruise?

Once away from the land and into the high seas, you can only accept satellite signals, and the principle of portable wifi has to accept base station signals on land. Satellite transmission costs are huge. If you want to surf the Internet on the high seas, you must buy a wifi package on the cruise.

Portable wifi, which is often seen now, is similar to the working principle of mobile phone cards. It can only be used by receiving signals from terrestrial base stations. After the cruise ship sails on the high seas, it can't receive the signal from the base station, so the portable wifi is not used much on the cruise ship. After landing, the cruise ship can normally receive signals from base stations in various countries and can be used normally.
