- mi_lk 10mo agoDo you know what’s the technical term to search if a phone has that capability? Asking for an iPhone
- eyeris 10mo agoLike WiFi tethering?
- einarfd 10mo agoMy iPhone calls it personal hotspot.
- brewdad 10mo agoIt's my understanding that personal hotspot can only utilize the cellular connection for the internet side since the wifi connection is being used to connect clientside. If one is hoping to use hotel wifi rather than their cellular plan data, Apple's solution won't work. I'd be happy to be proven wrong on this however.
- jibe 10mo agoUnfortunately, iPhone can't bridge wifi networks, which makes travel routers particularly useful if you have an iphone, and a laptop, and are staying at a hotel with wifi.
- user_7832 10mo agoNot only new and expensive, my 5 year old budget phone could do it (a vivo).
- esperent 10mo agoBudget Chinese phones often have features that only expensive American or Korean phones have.
