Explanation

A WWAN (Wireless Wide Area Network) hotspot uses cellular data networks (3G/4G/LTE/5G) to provide internet access, making it independent of hotel WiFi infrastructure. This provides both reliability (not shared with other hotel guests) and security (private, encrypted cellular connection). NIC teaming combines multiple network interfaces for redundancy or speed but requires existing network infrastructure. NFC is short-range and not suited for internet access. Bluetooth tethering has very limited range, slow speeds, and is not practical for laptop internet access during meetings.
