Got it on my new phone, using it now and it is really good, but does it cost money?

Obvz pay for the internet connection on my comp, but are there any additional charges?

Don't have WiFi that is why I'm using this,

Many thanks

I guess you've tethered your phone to your PC? What plan are you on because most plans on most networks don't allow it. In fact, the One Plan on Three is the only one I know that explicitly allows it without any extra cost.

Do you have a internet bundle on your mobile phone?

Do you have a tethered internet bundle for you mobile phone?

If you don't have the internet bundle on your mobile for tethering then you be charged for using the internet

Rang o2, lady said there was no charge.

Does make sense seeing as I'm already paying for my dial connection

I don't understand anything youve said. Glad the O2 lady made sense of it.

The OP means tethering.

Internet pass through is the opposite of tethering. The phrase was common in the days when Windows Mobile ActiveSync was popular. Symbian also has mRouter which is the same thing. You connect your handset to your PC via USB (or RS232) or Bluetooth and surf on the handset using the PC's dial-up or broadband connection.

There is no charge from the mobile company as you aren't using the network.
