Should I let them use my personal hotspot?
So I have an iPhone 5, and it has a personal hotspot. When i connect a device to it, i guess it let's them use my internet so they have internet or service.
I'm in High school, and I take the bus in the morning. And there's this guy I sit near and I let him use my personal hotspot on the bus ride cause his iPod doesn't get internet. Where pretty good friends so it's not like its just some random guy.
But it just dawned on me, should I let him use it? Is there any risks I'm taking by letting him use it? Should I stop letting him use it?
Just wanted to know and be sure.
Pretty much no risks except that he is using your data.
Just sharing your data usage bro…
To crack any data on your iphone? That is not an easy thing to do. And iphone's security is very good but not flawless…
I don't see how this could be risky.
- Will it cost me if I use 'personal hotspot' from my iphone to my laptop? I have an iphone, and my Wi-Fi just went down so I was wondering if it would cost to use that 'personal hotspot' thing onto my laptop because I want to watch netflix, and in not doing it on my phone (screens small) Oh and I have unlimited data (3G) and my providers I think are EE.
- Will I be able to use my mobile as a personal hotspot? I'm with optus and have unlimited internet… Just wondering if personal hotspot will work on my iphone? Its not coming up on my phone it's just saying carrier, bluetooth etcetera. Please only people from australia. ps I only just set up my prepaid plan but its working fine on my phone?
- My iPhone personal hotspot network is really slow when I use it on my mac computer? How can I make it faster? I'm connecting them via Wi-Fi. Will doing it through USB make it faster? How do I do it through a USB cable?
- If I use personal hotspot on iPhone, will it use my Wi-Fi or data plan? There are 2 computers in my house. One of them won't connect to the router. So I figure while my iPhone has Wi-Fi access, I can turn on personal hotspot and make the computer connect to the iPhones personal hotspot
