Pocket Wi-Fi for travel: the bands each country needs

46 destinations · Checked 2026-10-06

Before you travel with a pocket Wi-Fi (MiFi / UFI), check which 4G bands your destination uses: your unit should cover the main bands there, ideally including the low-band coverage layer that carries rural and indoor signal. The biggest gap is between North America and the rest: European and Asian units often lack B2, B4, B12, B66 and B71 and are limited in the US and Canada. The table lists each destination's bands and the best of the pocket units listed here; to test your own unit, paste its band list.
