Ditch Dodgy Public Wi-Fi: Tether Securely with a PiPcall Travel eSIM
Public Wi-Fi is Convenient—And Risky
When travelling for work, we’ve all been tempted to jump on a free airport or hotel network. But convenience comes at a cost. Public Wi-Fi is often unsecured, unencrypted, and shared with dozens—if not hundreds—of unknown users.
That’s a data breach waiting to happen.
🛑 Common risks include:
- Rogue hotspots mimicking legitimate ones
- Man-in-the-middle attacks stealing login credentials
- Malware injection via unsecured connections
💬 As we highlighted in our previous blogs on risky Wi-Fi spots, airports, hotels, and even coworking spaces can put your business data at risk.

Real-World Scenarios Where Tethering Shines
1. James the IT Consultant
James frequently travels between the UK, France, and Germany. Previously reliant on hotel Wi-Fi, he was caught out when a client’s CRM system was compromised via a shared network.
Now, he uses PiPcall’s travel eSIM and tethers his laptop securely. With auto top-up enabled, he can run back-to-back client meetings on Zoom or sync large files without worrying about running out of data. The multi-network switching also ensures rock-solid connectivity wherever he lands.
2. Sarah the Construction Engineer
