The economical way in sharing the internet with the groups is by creating mobile Wifi hotspots, sharing a single mobile internet account with several users concurrently. Normally you share your wired broadband internet (cable or DSL services) in home but for outdoor activities where you and the groups require connecting to the world via the internet connectivity. Cable or DSL services are not available in outdoor activities, but you need 3G or cellular network to get connected to the internet wirelessly.
In some cases you need to work outdoor for situations where an impromptu wifi network must be set up for sharing the files, sharing internet and other internet connectivity applications.
