Connect A Computer To The Internet Via A Cell Phone

Use your cell phone to get online.


You don't always need a wired connection or WiFi hotspot to connect to the Internet. You can connect with your cell phone if you have the right service and the right phone.


Instructions


1. Tether your cell phone to your computer. Sign up for cell phone Internet service from your cell phone provider. You will need a service such as Verzion Mobile Broad Band, Sprint Mobile Web or T Mobile Internet. The provider will give you a CD to download a program onto your computer. Then you can click on the program and connect to the Internet through your cell phone number.


2. Talk to your cell phone provider about the new 4G networks, available starting in spring of 2010 from several carriers such as Sprint and AT&T. Sign up for 4G service so you can have the mobile broadband.


3. Buy a phone that works with the 4G service from your cell phone provider.


4. Turn on the phone and scroll through to "Options." Choose "Internet Options" and click "Connect to the Internet." If you have the right provider and right phone, this will turn your phone into a WiFi hotspot for up to four devices.
