In this digital era, digital technologies are at the forefront, and new digital innovations are fuelling this growth. However, what remains central to all these technological advancements is the usage of the internet and how it helped shape this digital age. We primarily use WiFi to connect our laptops and WiFi or mobile data to connect our smartphones/tablets to the internet.
But WiFi comes with the limitation of a fixed location. We would require a movable internet connection to use the internet on laptop devices while traveling or in the car. Thanks to technology and innovation, this is possible too! We can now connect our laptops to the internet using a MiFi device which is a portable, pocket-friendly router.
However, you need to have a MiFi device handy when and where required to use it. What if there was another simpler solution to this. Well, there is the mobile internet! Most of us tend to carry our mobile phones almost everywhere with us. You can conveniently use your mobile data and connect your laptop to the internet with the help of the personal hotspot option.
A mobile hotspot uses the smartphone's cellular data to create an access point and enables other devices, such as laptops or tablets, to connect to the internet.
Here is How to Connect Mobile Internet to Laptop:
