You can continue this service after 12 months for only USD 9 per month or USD 99 per year. There are no long-term contracts or commitments and you can cancel anytime.

SUPPORTED CONFIGURATIONS AND COMPATIBILITY - RATtrap supports Internet broadband SPEEDS OF UP TO 300 Mbps. RATtrap is INCOMPATIBLE with DSL/PPPoE based broadband services. RATtrap MUST BE CONNECTED at one end to a modem and at the other end to a WiFi router. If you have a typical wireless gateway supplied by your ISP, which has both the modem and a WiFi router in a single device i.e. integrated/combined router-modem, you need to ADD A SEPARATE WiFi router to be able to use RATtrap.
