Is mobile data from CoreESIM more resilient than hotel Wi-Fi during power outages?

Updated April 22, 2026

Yes, mobile data provided by CoreESIM generally offers superior resilience compared to hotel Wi-Fi, especially in regions prone to power interruptions like Senegal. Local power grid instability, often termed 'coupures', can immediately disable Wi-Fi infrastructure in accommodations. Conversely, cellular towers operated by carriers such as Orange Sonatel are frequently equipped with uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and backup generators, ensuring sustained operation. This makes CoreESIM's mobile data a more reliable communication channel for critical applications like navigation with Google Maps or maintaining business continuity, even during utility disruptions.
