From July 2025, it began offering "ConnectIN povo" (Note 6), a business model for individual users.
・"ConnectIN povo" has so far offered models integrated into mobile PCs, meeting the needs of individuals who use PCs for personal use on a daily basis, such as individual business owners and creators.
Amid rising PC prices due to the spread of AI and the increasing importance of securing communications during emergencies as preparation for disasters and other emergencies, we are adding mobile routers to our product lineup in response to various needs such as "I want to have a means of communication other than the smartphone I use every day, but I want to keep costs down" and "I want to be able to check the data consumption of family members living far away to help with monitoring them."
