Renting a Pocket Wifi Router in Japan: The Best Options

Pocket wifi is a great choice for staying connected while travelling around Japan. Often with faster internet speeds than travel sim cards and the ability to connect multiple devices, mobile wifi routers are a clever choice. In this video we show you how to rent a portable wifi router in Japan, as well as a few of the best options in terms of value, data usage and length of stay.

AAAAAAAAARGHHH I am going to Japan next week on Tuesday and booked everything just an hour ago. Your videos really REALLY helped me with about everything

[@mokisan]

Thanks for making the great video! I am glad you listened to my request. This is very helpful!

[@oceansideDOODS]

Short but sweet video. Very informative and no random info. Best video I’ve seen on pocket Wi-Fi in Japan.

[@tokyocheapo]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!

[@Juggalo972]

These come in handy so much! I first visited in 2019 of November and, it made navigation SO MUCH EASIER!

Loved the simplicity and easy-to-follow instructions. This was a really great little video. I’m off to cd Japan for the medium pocket WiFi. Thank you 🙏

[@vguy488]

This. This is one of the videos I so desperately needed to finish prep work for my Japan trip in October 2023. Thank you very much. I was planning on renting from softbank, but felt their rates were a little high, so I'm thinking of either going with Ninja or Japan Wireless after watching this. Truth be told, it was pretty hard finding such a simple explanation after navigating so many websites and second-hand information. Cheers and safe travels everyone!

[@tokyocheapo]

Thank you for watching! Glad it was helpful. Hope you have a great trip in October!

your trip is coming fast!

[@rei__tv]

How was your trip?! I'm here because I'm going soon. So excited.

[@vguy488]

@@rei__tv in a word: amazing. Just some quick tips: * Always carry your passport around. You'll need it. * Lots of stores offer tax free shopping for purchases over 5.5k yen. You'll need your passport for this of course. * Always carry around at least 10k yen in cash. 80% of places don't take credit cards at all. * Google maps is your best friend. Japan's public transport system is so precise maps will actually tell you if somethibg will be even a minute late. * Get an IC card as soon as you can (ICOCA, Pasmo, Suica). These are used for most public transport and are rechargable at most stations. Don't know if the shortage is now over, but if you can, just get one. * Most stations (automated kiosks) offer an english menu on the screen, usually on a top corner. Great for buying tickets. * Carry around a portable cellphone charger. You'll need it. * Buy an umbrella. Weather can change pretty quickly in Japan. * Wear comfy shoes. I walked an average of 10k per day. * Brush up on your japanese. Some places have english speakig staff, but most don't, so it's good to know at least a little of the language. In any case, download the offline version of google translate ASAP. * Have fun!

I recently rented the ninja Wi-Fi for an upcoming trip to Tokyo. I also rented the full insurance/external battery. Do you know if all their packages include a charger or do I need to bring my own? I can’t tell when I look over my order.

[@tokyocheapo]

Hi there! A charger for the pocket wifi is included in the rental.

[@stephenc.2675]

Thank you for the information. I will use your link. I will be in Japan for 6 days. I see that Ninja also offers medical insurance, which seems to be very reasonable. Do you know anything about it? Are the facilities that accept this insurance... not as good as others. Is it accepted at University Hospitals? I appreciate you insight.

[@tokyocheapo]

Sorry we haven’t reviewed the medical insurance by Ninja wifi so we can’t say how it stacks up against other insurance plans. If you’d like more info on it, contacting Ninja directly might be your best option 😊

[@ChefNikuman]

How is the range on these devices, as in do they only work in the major cities or are they still reliable in more rural/remote areas of Japan?

[@tokyocheapo]

They go pretty well outside major cities. If you're in a really remote area outside any towns, they might not be as reliable but we've found even in small rural towns, we get decent service.

[@salguodrolyat2594]

3G has been shut off in Japan now. Only 4G and 5G networks are available.

[@InvestingWithAdamK]

If they charge $5 a day on average what is the advantage vs just using my phone? Most carriers cap out at $50 per month. Does it connect better than a phone?

[@tokyocheapo]

Using your phone with a roaming plan in Japan could be quite slow, pocket Wi-Fi is likely to be much faster

[@Kroylergracie]

If I have international plan with my current cellphone carrier is it necessary to get a pocket wifi or a sim card ?

[@tokyocheapo]

If you feel that your international plan is sufficient then there's no need. The Mobal sim card can be handy if you need a Japanese phone number and/or need to make calls for any reason.

[@limorrazon-kaye897]

Is it must to pre order online?, can’t i just go to desk in Narita airport?

[@tokyocheapo]

You can go to the desk, but you won’t get the 20% discount. There’s also a chance they will be out of stock on the day.

[@irregularmana6216]

I will travel with my wife and our 2 kids. My wife and I will be doing some stuff separated for part of the day. Should we rent 2 pocket wifi? or get sim cards since we will both need internet access separately?

[@tokyocheapo]

Hello! You could do either - rent two pocket wifis or two SIM cards. Depending on how long you’re travelling for, pocket wifi may work out cheaper but SIM cards have the benefit of not needing to carry around and charge an extra device.

I plan to rent the Ninja WiFi device for 7 days at the Narita Airport and return it by mail from the hotel on the last day. Can I mail out the pocket WIFI at the end of the 7th day or does it have to be in the morning of the 7th day?

[@bellywilly1628]

Hi, what is the time that I can pickup the device at Narita airport?

[@tokyocheapo]

Hi there! That will depend on which pocket wifi device you go with as the pickup times may change slightly depending on the company.

[@LuciferMorningstar____]

So is the pocket wifi a guarantee of internet connection no matter where you go in Japan? Or does it depend on location and areas with strong service towers? And can you make phone calls via Whatsapp call using wifi?

[@tokyocheapo]

Pocket Wi-Fi has the same coverage as the mobile networks, which is pretty good across the country. And yes you can make what’s app calls.

[@miguelangelsanchez3427]

If your phone supports an esim, go that way.

@@miguelangelsanchez3427 i saw some e sim alternative, but they don't seem to offer as much data on a monthly basis as the sakua or mobal ones. Any specific esim you would recommend ?

[@tokyocheapo]

Hi there! Depending on your needs, either a sim card or pocket wifi will do the job. If you don't want to carry around and charge the extra device, then a sim card is convenient. In this article we compare the different long-term sim card options: tokyocheapo.com/business/japan-sim-card-options-data-voice/ If, however, you're looking for a lot of data then pocket wifi would be the way to go. The Mobal plan offers 100GB while Sakura Mobile has a 30GB and more expensive unlimited plan.

[@marcello_s]

@@tokyocheapo Thank you very much. I was thinking on going with mobal, but didn't get any response from there support in a week. Sakura Mobile has always responded within 24h. Did you have any probelm with mobal ?

It seems Mobal has been experiencing a large increase in enquiries recently so their response times are a little slower than usual.

You can connect all your phones to one router, so as long as you’re all in the same place that’s fine. The other main concern is how much data you’ll use, so probably sensible to get one of the plans with a high data allowance

Nija WiFi sucks. They throttle you at 3Gb then this video doesn't show you. When you arrive in Japan the airport looks like an old bomb shelter you can walk from one end to the other on about ten minutes. That's where you pick up the ninja WiFi. When you leave Japan the airport is like a mall. Now you have to drop of the WiFi before checking in. If you don't like me you will have to mail it back from the USA because you are not allowed through immigration once in 24 hrs. So fing the Ninja WiFi before you check in.
