AT&T today announced the Unite Explore, a mobile hotspot that's been ruggedized to withstand abuse. The hotspot has earned the mil-spec 810G and IR65 ratings for protection against shock, temperature extremes, vibration, water, and dust. The device boasts dual-band WiFi and some LTE-Advanced features to provide the fastest speeds available. Owners can manage the device thanks to a touchscreen-based user interface. Controls can set up and limit guest access, and parents can set content filters for age-appropriate surfing. AT&T says the battery provides 22 hours of hotspot time for up to 15 devices. The AT&T Unite Explore reaches stores April 1 and costs $49.99 with a two-year agreement.
