My girlfriend and I are discussing this.
Yes, the function itself does. You still need a mobile phone contract and may have to pay for the data volume if you don't have a data flat rate…
I do this over Wi-Fi
Which mobile hotspot?
You may be able to configure a Windows 10 laptop as a hotspot (i.e. Share your Internet access with other devices), but the laptop's Internet access is independent of this. I.e. You have to pay for it whether you set up a hotspot or not.
A hotspot is a forwarded private network. However, it depends on how you look at it. Generally it's free, but you pay for your internet connection
Thank you, so completely free? Except the right Wi-Fi
I mean yes, so that the cell phone has Wi-Fi
The function is free. But there could be costs due to used data volume.
I do this normally via Wi-Fi, only with my cell phone I only have limited Wi-Fi time. That's why I created one on my laptop. For my cell phone
? You can either connect to the laptop via WLAN OR open a hotspot so that other devices can use the internet access from your PC, notebook or tablet…
So the device must either be connected via LAN or have a UMTS / LTE module… However, you need internet access.
I have that.
Briefly summarized again. :
If the laptop is connected via WLAN / LAN and you then activate the hotspot there, it's free!
If the laptop itself is only connected via mobile data, then of course it costs something.
If the Wi-Fi does not cost anything, there are no (extra) costs.
Thank you!
YES
