Tep Wireless, branded as Tep, is a telecommunications company which provides mobile broadband for international travelers.[1] The aim of the service is to prevent roaming fees for individuals going abroad, while keeping them connected to the Internet anywhere they go.[2][3][4] The service is rendered via pre-paid MiFi devices (referred to as pocket WiFi devices), which are delivered to users before their trip or picked up at various airports. At the end of the user's trip, the MiFi (or WiFi) device is returned by post or dropped off at airports.[5][6][7] Tep delivers its mobile broadband service through partnerships with global network operators, including Vodafone.[8] The WiFi device can be ordered on the company's website, or those of Expedia or VisitBritain.[9][10]DHI Telecom acquired Tep Wireless in October 2018 and continues to operate as a subsidiary.
