Thethering on an iPhone 4

[J0Al1]

Is this possible? Does it have a different name to tethering (Samsung facility)?

Cheers

You can do it on the 4s

Go to settings then Personal hotspot, you can then connect to the phone via Bluetooth,WiFi and USB to use the connection.


Some networks get funny about it. I'm on 3 who give you unlimited tethering.

Thanks

But no Hot Spot option on the iPhone4.

I am also with Three with unlimited internet, so wanted to set up a hotspot on thephone to use via my Mac at home (which is on limited wifi box).


Ah well

I think there is an app called connectify which might do what you want, see if that is available on iPhone.

Settings - General - Cellular - Setup Personal Hotspot.


That sends me off to Vodafone for some reason (seems thats normal, despite tethering being included since 2011 Vodafone must make you beg for it, glad I'm moving to EE in May).

Home allowance is 40GB? ISPs still putting limits on the internet?!

Holy shit, glad I have Virgin tbh...even though their customer support is bollocks.

BT fibre is pretty good now. I haven't experienced any throttling, well, maybe they throttle down to 10mb or something but it doesn't really matter it is so fast.

Gone are the days of 10gb download limits.

You need to make sure you are completely updated.

Wish we could bet BT Fibre here, still on shitty adsl, BT WiFi/Fon/openzone rocks though and one of the main reasons I stay.

Don't go to O2 or Three. My god, Three were the biggest bunch of cunts in the universe, a title I'd previously thought held by O2.

Good luck to you then

Three's actual service is tolerable but if you need to contact customer support for anything, you're done for.

Thanks.
never had an issue with Orage (with for 6+ years- or O2 many moons ago.

What did they do that was so bad?

[weasley]

I'm on a low-rent monthly deal with Vodafone and get tethering included, never asked for it. The main issue is that iOS 6 buggered it up (google it and see how many people found the same).

Fuck contracts.

Giff Gaff all the way. No hassle, they have never called me. Prices are perfectly good enough. No contracts etc.

If you can't afford a £500 phone, don't get one. That was my lesson at 18. Whilst I managed to pay it each month on a reasonably priced contract, when I didn't have a job, £30 a month was a lot.

[J0Al1]

Agree ref money

It tends to be more expensive to go a contract than it is buying the phone.
What n/w do giff gaff do. I am on my weeks trial so can terminate if I decide.

I already want the free signal booster they said they would give as the signal at jhome is not as good as they suggested it shoud be.
