What our customers are saying
Would do it again. Too easy
EConnectJapan was too easy. The pocket WiFi was waiting at our first hotel after placing the order only 3 days prior. It was small with a battery life that lasted all day. The biggest plus for us though was that the pocket WiFi allowed us both to have WiFi connectivity rather than each having to get an eSIM. The cost for 3 weeks was more than reasonable for reliable, unlimited WiFi access. Will use it again without question.
To be connected
When I planned our trip to Japan I tried to collect all needed information that will help us in our journey. One of the main topic was how to stay permanently connected to Internet via wifi. We used applications to plan our short trips in Tokyo, Kyoto, between cities - what public transport should we use it's timetable. I've got the information about eConnect Japan pocket wifi from the chit-chat about Japan in Telegram web. It is very useful chat where you can receive all information concerning individual trip to Japan. We were very glad that we have this pocket wifi shared wifi between me and my husband. The only problem was that during first 4 days there were no connection to Internet. Only on our 5th day of journey the team of eConnect Japan managed to correct something in it's tunings. And since that it worked properly. Summary- it is very useful and necessary gadgets in your trip to Japan. It saves your money for sure. And you will stay connected!
Staying connected in Japan
Found the econnect pocket wifi absolutely priceless on our 3wk trip around Japan. Easy to find the pick up at the airport and instructions in English and prepared envelope for returning into a post box at the end of the trip. Handy battery bank and pouch to have in your bag while on the move. Basically allowed us to be online the whole time, using Google lens and translate and everything you need and use in your phone with minimum cost. Data roaming would have cost us upwards of €2 per mb, couldn't have afforded the trip without it! Highly recommend
Smooth journey through Japan with stable Internet
Great experience with eConnect. Received our router in the hotel, it comes with power bank and all the necessary cables. Had no issues in our journey and the connection quality was great.
Best pocket wifi hands down!
In my opinion, using pocket wifi from eConnect, is the best option when traveling abroad. The service is top notch, I had no issues whatsoever and truly enjoyed being connected while on vacation. I noticed very little signal lost, but we did travel into the country and mountain areas, yet still was able to keep a steady connection. I always suggest to friends that are traveling to Japan, to go ahead and use eConnect! Thank you so much for making traveling abroad even more convenient!
Connection is nice but the internal battery is subpar
The modem connection is reliable and the speed is consistently good. However, the modem built-in battery is quite poor. It did hold a charge for a reasonable amount of time. Either you need an external battery pack for most of the day or you could get a power source from your rental car.

Q. Do you have any physical stores or booths?
Unfortunately, we currently operate online only and do not have any physical shops. But this lack of brick and mortar stores is what enables us to provide competitive prices.

We have our orders delivered 1 or 2 days ahead of selected pick up date (the only exceptions are the last-minute orders). So the delivery date is based on your pickup date, not on your order date.

We can typically deliver an order within 1 - 2 days. However, our ability to ship quickly depends on stock levels.
