Everest Base Camp trek Wi-Fi options include both mobile networks and satellite services, though connectivity can be affected by weather and high altitude. Carrying two local SIM cards helps improve coverage: Ncell provides fast 4G in lower regions like Lukla and Namche Bazaar, while Nepal Telecom (NTC/Namaste) is more reliable at higher elevations near Gorak Shep and Base Camp. Teahouse Wi-Fi is usually slow, so many trekkers use Everest Link prepaid satellite cards: 10 GB for ~$20 and 20 GB for ~$30 approx., valid for 30 days, with coverage at stops like Namche, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, and Gorak Shep. Airlink is another option available in some lodges, sold in time-based sessions (e.g., 700 NPR approx. for 24 hours).
