With the high range of mobile phones available in the tech market today, and the great functionalities they provide, having a mobile phone can be one of the smartest decisions you will make as far as your business is concerned. Most smartphones and advanced mobile phone available today are competing with old computers, and they all make it easy to use the internet. A lot of the latest mobile phones available today provide support for advanced broadband technologies like 3G or HSPA, and instead of having to spend hundreds of dollars on a new modem and monthly subscriptions, you can easily tether your mobile phone with your laptop computer and enjoy the Internet for free. Tethering a mobile phone with a laptop computer isn’t as easy as most people think, though, and there are several things you have to consider before tethering your mobile phone with your laptop. This article will be listing some of those things.
The Plan You are Subscribed to
The first thing you need to consider before tethering your mobile phone with your laptop is the mobile Internet plan you are subscribed to, and how it can work with your laptop. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that because they can’t exhaust their monthly bandwidth on their mobile phone they will also not exhaust it on their computer. The reality is that computers are different from mobile phones in every way, and while a 1G monthly mobile Internet bundle might work well on your mobile phone, you might exhaust it on your computer in less than a day. In my own opinion, the only way you can really enjoy tethering your mobile phone with your computer is if you have unlimited internet.
The Capacity of Your Mobile Device
You also need to consider the capacity of your mobile device when it comes to tethering your mobile phone with your computer. For example, so many people think that tethering just any mobile phone will automatically provide them with broadband speeds, whereas that isn’t true. When it comes to using the Internet there are systems and protocols, and they influence the speed you get to a great extent. If your mobile phone doesn’t support 3G Internet or any other advanced form of broadband Internet then you shouldn’t expect to get broadband speeds should you decide to tether it with your laptop.
How Solid Your Mobile Device Is
The final thing you should consider before tethering your mobile phone with your laptop is how solid your mobile phone is. Based on my experience with tethering mobile phones with computers, one thing I have noticed is that the battery of most mobile phones run dry quickly when tethered with a computer. You might want to try your mobile phone without charging it to see how long it lasts, and then decide whether to use it or not. For example, if your mobile phone battery only lasts 30 minutes if you tether it with your laptop, then it might be better to go get a mobile broadband dongle.
