Wifi when I don't have wifi


Question Posted Tuesday March 22 2016, 4:37 pm

I like to watch this girl, Aspyn, and her husband, Parker's vlogs on YouTube. In one of her recent videos, she is driving in the car with Parker. She working on her computer in the passenger seat and is talking about how she has wifi on her computer even though there isn't wifi around because she is using it from her phone. I was just wondering how that could be. If it is an app or if she had to buy a software for that to happen. I'm coming up on an international vacation soon and if I can get wifi on my computer when there isn't wifi around, to get me through the traveling, that would be great. Thanks for any help!

BE CAREFUL. If you don't have a DATA Package,. you will end up with an INSANE amount of Data charges on your phone. And being international,. it can add roaming charges on top of your Data and you can end up paying an arm and leg of hundreds!

However, If you wanted to you can set up your mobile device as a 'hotspot' this will allow you to access your internet connection through your phone. It may be a slower connection.

As well, Many hotels, places you stay do offer free -WiFi for their guests,. so I would also look into that as well.

Hope this helps :)

You can turn your phone into a wireless access point. Basically, you take your signal from your phone and use it as an internet access point for your computer.

Being able to do this while you're on vacation depends on you being able to access the internet from your phone while abroad, which is either not covered or very, very expensive. Generally, I find that my best bet while travelling is to wait until I can find a place with free WiFi.
