You don't need this device if you have access to WiFi. You don't need this device if your cell phone permits you to 'tether' other devices. In places where you have No WiFi, but where cell phone coverage, 3G/4G is available, and if your cell phone does not permit tethering, and if you have a device like a tablet or a laptop PC without a dongle, ....with which you want to access the internet, then this device is handy. It can serve multiple devices simultaneously. Of course, you need to install a sim chip with data service from the cell phone provider of your choice.

Yes, we have our's set up on the home WiFi. If you mean a portable WiFi hotspot, I'm sure you can do that as well.

You can purchase an ATT "Hotspot" . It works just like a router. I pay $50. A month for its data plan. We have a second home without Internet service and it works great, and keep in mind, this works where ever you can get an ATT signal. I believe Verizon offers the same thing, however their plan may be a little different .

The manual for the Slate 7 HD mentions tethering and hotspot options; however, there are no such options under "wireless & networks" on my unit. Perhaps one or more cellphone providers do indeed offer the Slate 7 HD with hotspot capability to customers willing to pay for the service.

In short, yes. Long answer, start reading the documentation. http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Hotspot_Introduction

I am using Lycamobile (which also uses T-mobile network) and I can do tethering. You will have to setup the APN setting first.

Yes, correct. personally I find the wifi direct to be much better, if you're transferring 5 or 10 gigabytes of data it's like having a cable plugged in, its fast. for quick sharing pictures just a bump the phones together NFC is kind of cool, but you could easily send a link through MMS or SMS as well.

No, it won't work. You need to have a physical Ethernet wired connection to your internet source. I suspect your hotspot doesn't have that capability. You need to have a 24/7 broadband or DSL connection.

It does offer hotspot and tether. Buyer Beware. I had the phone for 2 weeks and it refuses to power up. I had to return the item.

Yip. everybody has a phone in their pocket. Tethering is the simple and most economical answer - why sign up for another data plan when you already have a 3G device in your pocket ?

It creates a private network or extends coverage of an existing network. It doesn't create a connection to the internet. I think you are looking for a mobile hotspot.

The hotspot is your and not through the cellphone company. Because you will be using your own device so you activate and deactivate when you want as long as you don't enter into a contract with the cell phone company, because a contract is not required.

You can only use this as a hotspot with the $70/mo plan *and* purchase the additional $15/mo plan to enable this functionality. It will not work as a hotspot with the $30/mo plan.

hot spot only works with contracted data plan, the device comes preconfigured for contracts with A & TT. contact an AT & T.

Nope, but as another individual stated, if you have the resources you can convert your cell phone into a hotspot to get the connectivity you want. Actually had to do this when I moved -- the connectivity in the hotel was garbage and wasn't secured. Using my cell worked out well, but cost me a bit more per month.
