Serious question...not trying to be snarky...
Why would anyone use anything but FoxFi?
http://foxfi.com/ http://foxfi.com/
EDIT: I suppose FoxFi doesn't work on some phones + using both radios at the same time might run down the battery quicker.
- dkulchenko 14y agoFrom personal experience, USB tethering is both faster (bandwidth-wise) and uses considerably less battery than Wifi tethering.
- sandGorgon 14y agoFrom what I read, actually it uses the same amount of battery but having the USB connected charges it at the same time. Connecting the phone to a USB charge port (such as your computer) should exhibit the same power characteristics. Not sure if it is accurate.
- mcbridematt 14y agoThe implementation of Access Point mode in some phones isn't great (especially in high noise environments), I've found that Bluetooth PAN mode tends to be more reliable, actually.
