There are no stupid questions, just frequently asked ones

What's the difference between mobile hotspot and Wi-Fi?

Wi-Fi allows devices to connect to the Internet or to each other through a Wi-Fi network. A mobile hotspot is a device (such as your phone) that creates a Wi-Fi network that other devices can connect to. In other words, a mobile hotspot grants you and up to 10 other devices (phones, tablets, laptops, etc.) access to the Internet even when there's no Wi-Fi.

Is hotspot free on an Unlimited Plan?

No, but our Unlimited Plan does come with 10GB of hotspot.

How do I turn mobile hotspot on or off?

All you have to do is go to your phone's cellular settings, then turn on Personal Hotspot. After that, you're good to access the Internet wherever you go.

How many devices can be connected to mobile hotspot at one time?

You can share your internet connection with up to 15 devices...which means your friends and family are going to love you.

Can customers use tethering/mobile hotspot on their 5G phone and share their 5G with other devices?

Yes. You can use and share the mobile hotspot on your 5G smartphone; just remember that hotspot usage draws from your monthly data allotment.

Do all plans include Mobile Hotspot?

Yep. All plans include the Mobile Hotspot feature at no extra charge. The data you use just pulls from your monthly 5G • 4G LTE amount. All you need is a hotspot-capable phone. Reminder: Mobile hotspot is limited to 10GB for Unlimited Plans.
