@raven71 We are talking about turning your phone INTO a hotspot (also called tethering) which allows your computer to see your phone as an access point, NOT connecting to a public wifi hotspot .

@Horr1bleK1tten This is what I was told when I inquired about it in the store. I'm not paying any more $ so I didn't inquire about it any further. [Only registered users can view links. ]

Now I understand it was explained to me when I had a blackberry, but I keep forgetting. My problem is if I get a galaxy tablet. Why do I need a data plan for it. What does it matter if I reach my limit with my phone or my tab.
In matter of fact if I reach my limit and they are going to slow my data down anyway. Paying a tethering cost or not.
I was also told that if I got a tab it would be an added 2GB, or unlimited seperate From my phone but no one said anything about tethering.
It don't make sense what device cause me to reach my 2GB if that's what I choose to use.
It seems even an unlimited plan i'm going to get data speed cut after 5GB if i'm reading the plans right.

I added foxfi and turned on wifi hotspot and it isn't showing up on my devices. When I turn on mobile hotspot it wants me to pay Verizon 30 extra to activate. How are you guys getting around this?
