The Helium Hotspot is a small hardware device that creates a large wireless network. Likewise, it is a Wi-Fi router, However, devices sending small amounts of data over long ranges. These devices are part of IoT — or the “Internet of Things.”
Hotspot serves as the backbone of the network. It provides many square miles of connectivity and as a node for the Helium blockchain.
It supports thousands of devices, hence, it requires about the same amount of power as an LED light bulb.
The Helium Hotspot is a combination LongFi wireless router and Helium blockchain miner.
It creates a long-range wireless network for routing packets to and from Helium LongFi-enabled devices and performs ongoing mining duties to secure the Helium Network.
Why deploy a Hotspot?
First of all the Hotspots provide internet connectivity for all sorts of IoT devices. Like, bikes, scooters, temperature sensors, location trackers for pets, elevators, wildfire sensors, and much more.
So, your Hotspot earns a new cryptocurrency called Helium for providing network services to these devices.
How do I deploy the Hotspot? What are the requirements for running it?
It’s simple. Just plug it into a power source and connect to Wi-Fi. If there’s 
no Wi-Fi available you can directly plug into an Ethernet port. Therefore, once this is done, use the Helium Mobile app to finish the setup process.
Where is the ideal location for the Hotspot?
Hotspots like to be deployed high up, overlooking wide-open spaces. Probably, If you have a house or apartment building with multiple floors, aim for the highest floor with a window. Ideally, your Hotspot has a clear view of the sky.
How far apart do Hotspots need to be placed?
Hotspots should not be deployed too close to one another. Because the both devices start to read each other. A good rule of 
thumb is to provide a minimum distance of 300 to 500 meters between Hotspots
How much will it cost me to run?
There is nearly zero cost. The Hotspot uses a small amount of power, less than a standard LED light bulb.
How do I maintain my Hotspot?
You don’t need to do anything. The Hotspot runs quietly in the background, creating coverage and routing data. Just make sure it’s always plugged into power and connected to Wi-Fi.
Buy
When a user buys a Helium Hotspot ($495), they become like a miniature cell tower in a peer-to-peer wireless internet network that connects small, low-power devices from miles away through Helium’s “LongFi” protocol.
Earn Tokens
These Hotspots will earn you a new cryptocurrency – Helium. And this is something that is set up to continue for a very very long time.
