Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I noticed that my cousins had something like this.

What model or brand should I get?

Does this model work well?

Hotspots are as secure as any WiFi network. That is to say, it depends on the encryption standard you use (WPA2/WPA3) and the password/shared key. If you use a strong 40-character password with WPA3, no one's cracking that. With a password like that, even WPA2 is sufficient.

True, but rarely have I seen people use a 40-character password for their wifi network. Especially not a phone hotspot.
