No idea what each provider offers Im afraid.

So are you saying WiFi offers 4g speed? Rick

If your phone is on a 4g signal then the wireless tethering has got to be faster than. 3g signal. Your laptop connects to your phone, your phone connects to the 4g. Don't ask me the technicalities of the speeds tho.

OK question for you, does your current mobile phone connect to 4g signal?

Also how do you connect your tablet to the internet?

I have heard that Microsoft is going to allow free udates/upgrades to Windows 10. Even those of you with "doubious" versions. David.

That's what they've said but not to sure about the dubious copies.

Not very good business on Microsofts part is it? Or is it? Will they have a captive customer base?
