You have to understand that I am not tech oriented at all and generally look for the simplest solutions to problems. Sometimes,as luck would have it, these solutions are even the most economical.
Two years ago I purchased an HP Chromebook which has the Google OS which uploads the latest antivirus and firewall programs automatically every time you turn it on. No downloads necessary.
One of the best features though is that it comes with an automatic connection to T-mobile 4g if you care to use it. A small amount is free every month, enough to do banking, etc. and as many GBs as you want can be purchased on a month to month basis if you require it. The price for additional GBs from what I have seen on this post is very economical indeed. I travel a lot and just use the campground or motel wifi for email, facebook, etc. For more secure access I use the T-mobile option and since I don't stream movies, I have never even had to purchase additional data.
