Yes, it is possible and no, it is not expensive! You can share your Internet connection with another computer or laptop but also your mobile phone and mp3 player. When you’ve done this you’ll wonder how you ever coped without it!
I access the Internet on my phone for free by sharing my WiFi connection - no phone charges! I’m writing this on my terrace on a laptop that shares the files on my main computer. When I have guests staying they can also access the Internet from any room in the house.
The equipment you need is not expensive and you may even already have all you need. If you know what you’re doing, you can be up and working in an hour.
It is possible, inexpensive, quick to set up and wonderful, so what’s the catch?! Well, there are two:
1. If you don’t know what you’re doing you can waste money buying equipment that you don’t need or doesn’t do what you want.
2. If you don’t secure your connection then anyone within 100 metres can use it and you are legally responsible for anything they do!
If you are thinking about sharing your connection or you are concerned that your existing share is insecure then give me a call and I will advise you.
