Wireless aircards are basically cell phones for computers. The speed is better than dial-up not usually as good as DSL or Cable.
It works when you travel if you are in range of a tower, the same as a cell phone.
It usually requires a service contract and a monthly subscription between $40 and $100 depending on vendors and usage.
The top 2 names in the business are Verizon & Sprint.
