During your rental period, there is no limitation for the data capacity overall.
But please note that you will be limited when you over a limit for a certain period of days, which details vary depending on your plan.
However, you are still connected at 256Kbps speed, which enables you to use some essential apps such as Google Map.
And 256kbps is relatively faster than other providers' Docomo plans (128-200kbps).
The signal may be weak or out of service in weak signal area (in the car, underground, in the tunnel, narrow rows of buildings, mountain-ringed region, etc) even within the service coverage area.
Got it on time and easy return. Good battery capacity. Generally worked well, except sometimes in Tokyo when it was very slow late in the day . I do not know if this was due to the fact I exceeded 350 Mb (which is very unlikely as I used it only for google map and some internet browsing) or whether due to coverage problem in Tokyo.

Using Light Pocket was for me the easiest, simplest uncomplicated way of going online in Japan. You can't always rely on local wifi ....it often involves tedious registration procedures - exactly what you don't want when you are standing on Shinbuya Station with trains arriving every few minutes with obscure destinations....!

We ordered our pocket wifi 2 days before arriving in Tokyo and it was delivered to our hotel the next day. The device worked flawlessly and the battery lasted all day (9AM-11PM). It worked during subway rides as well. The total cost was $47.33 for 7 days of unlimited fast internet. Other rental places charge you more and have a cap on how much data you can use daily. This one is unlimited so it's great if you're looking to share with a group.
