Re: MiFi - 3G to Wi-Fi router

Hi all,

Yupz, nowadays, smartphones are able to wifi/bluetooth tether for other devices. My Samsung Galaxy S phone is able to do just that. =) but if that's the case, Galaxy Tab has got a SIM slot too, for mobile broadband on 3G HSDPA.

Cheers,
Alvin

It give non 3G tablet to "tether" 3G phone to use as a wifi spot
or in laymen term
You use 3G hp set up as a wifi station
You can then use wifi-only tablet to connect to it - your 3G hp
and you can use enjoy personal wifi where ever you go
(when there is not free wifi)
