- omnimus 10mo agoOk Lol but they got arrested for stealing others people data not for making a wifi on the flight. That's different.
- redrove 10mo ago>That's different. Is it though? It genuinely looks like you might get caught doing this, and I'm sure you are at least breaking airline policy, even if you're not charging money; not to mention if you charge.
- ec109685 10mo agoAirlines throttle per device, unfortunately.
- supersparrow 10mo agoThese travel routers have an option to impersonate the device you are using to get round this.
- akerl_ 10mo agoThe throttling is "per device", not "per type of device". If you connect 1 travel router and use it to share internet with >1 user, those users are sharing the capped capacity the plane gives to "one connected device".
