How to surf the Internet in Macau?
At present, if you don't roam in Macao, there are only four options for surfing the Internet and making phone calls.
First, buy a local calling card in Macau.
The second way is to use free wifi in Macau.
The third way is to rent a portable wifi hotspot on the market.
The fourth way is to buy a dedicated network card (100 million points are used to connect network cards).
The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the four methods, so that you can make a more wise and reasonable choice when choosing communication products in Macao.
First, buy a local calling card in Macau. The following is some basic information about Macao calling cards. Refer to the Macao card sold on Taobao. The price is pushed from low to high.
Advantages: the price is cheap.
Disadvantages: it is more expensive to call back to the mainland, similar to roaming, and the traffic is too small. Of the 9 yuan, the traffic demand of 30M is not enough. It is not cheap in actual use.
Advantages: the card purchase price is cheap, and the internet traffic is large.
Disadvantages: It is very expensive to call back to the mainland, and the Internet traffic is large, but the price is too expensive. If the flow is exceeded, the charge is too expensive.
Main features of Macao local cards:
First, it's very expensive to make mainland calls.
Second, the traffic is small and the price is expensive.
Third, it's basically wcdma system, cdma mobile phones and custom machine can't be used.
Fourthly, if you need to change the number and stay in Macao for more than 10 days, it is still feasible to buy a suitable local tariff card in Macao, and you can solve it by calling or surfing the Internet. If it is short-term, within 4 days, it is not cost-effective to buy a Macao card. And it's inconvenient
Second, free wifi in Macau. I haven't experienced it myself, but according to the survey feedback, free wifi is basically not available. Even if you can connect to the Internet, you can only visit a few specific websites. Very inconvenient.
Third, renting free portable wifi Macao portable wifi is a mobile hotspot. Its main function is to convert sim card signals into wifi signals. Smart phones with wifi function can connect to it to surf the Internet. Easy to carry. Some portable wifi devices also have a charging treasure function, which can charge the mobile phone and have a long standby time. It's about the size of a mobile phone, so it's easy to carry in your pocket.
Advantages: the price is cheap, which is convenient for local users in Shenzhen to go to Macao to retrieve equipment through customs.
Disadvantages: can't make phone calls.
Fourth, buy a 100 million-point connection network card
Excellent:
You can keep your own number, which is convenient to contact your family and has a high safety factor;
It can be used by plugging in a mobile phone, which is light;
Buy by the number of days, unlimited daily traffic;
You don't have to pay back like renting WiFi;
Inferior quality:
The calling card may not match the model of the mobile phone (for example, the mobile customized version may not be able to use the calling card of this country because of different standards, so please consult customer service when buying a calling card);
Summary:
If a young couple or two or three friends travel together, it is better to buy an Internet card, and it is also convenient to check the hotel and book a hotel.
If you are traveling for a family or a group, you can consider renting a portable WiFi, which is simple to operate and has a large traffic. Sharing the internet speed will not be as difficult as cell phone hotspots.
If you go to Macau for a long time, you can consider buying a local card.
In short, it is recommended to buy a network card. After all, safety and convenience are the first.
The above is my summary of Macao's communication methods. Buying a card or renting equipment depends on individual circumstances. I wish you a pleasant trip in Macau.
