RE: Verizon Personal Hotspot - rainyjim - 11-02-2012 Depending on the model of your phone you can easily "jailbreak" your phone which is 100% legal as long as it is some type of "smart phone" and not a "tablet" (like an iPad) I have used a "tether" via my phone to provide myself with free and unlimited internet. I would describe the connection as excellent and have even successfully played online multiplayer computer games via the connection as well as streaming via netflix et al. I would never pay my provider for this service which my phone already is 100% capable of doing by itself already! As an endnote being able to tether your phones internet onto your computer is an incredibly convenient option at times! Cheers rainyjim RE: Verizon Personal Hotspot - dldixon - 11-02-2012 The salesman at Verizon said I'd never use 5 gigs AND at the end of the month I should be able to download a movie. So being the dufus that I am, I believed him. Loaded the free program "Bit Meter" and was surprised to find out how much is actually being used. I'm off grid here in the forest, sure miss Oceanic. |
