I believe you don't need wifi. You just need a data SIM from the country you're visiting. And because data is so cheap in a number of European and Asian countries, this could actually be an awesome product for some people.

Correct, it does not need wifi. I was mistaken. I just looked it up again and it says it needs an ethernet cable to connect to internet.

Matthew from Strone here. Yes just use the supplied ethernet cable to connect the Roam to the internet!
