Q: QuestionDo i have to pay monthly for the internet or just buy the usb ?(4 answers)
A: AnswerYou would still need to have internet service from local carrier like Spectrum, AT&T, etc. This handy little USB allows the user to obtain WiFi on a device that would normally need to be plugged directly into the router. I have my pc set up in a room nowhere near my router so with this USB I’m online no problem. It’s perfect!Answered by Badmom
