Temporary Internet Connection

2»

Comments

  • I have just moved home myself and I am currently using a temporary internet connection myself with my iPhone.

    Well, since you have an iPhone yourself, try this.

    Go onto your iPhone Settings > Personal Hotspot > Personal Hotspot: On. Once your hotspot is turned on, go onto your PC/Laptop, and search your local Wi-Fi's. It should bring up the name of your phone on the Wi-Fi list, click your own and enter the password given under your personal hotspot settings on your iPhone.

    You will then be able to browse on your Laptop/PC using your mobile internet for the same cost. I have a data plan with Virgin Media which gives you 300 Texts & Unlimited internet. They also let you keep your £10 on top of your data plan too.

    Defiantly recommended for a temporary internet connection, at £10 per month for unlimited internet, I'm thinking of using it permanently :).

    You can connect as many PC's to your mobile internet as you want.
