Hi,
4) She will be using her mobile data.
3) You may have to turn on and off hotspot, to be seen again, at least I do with my note takers, although she could always just plug it in with USB. 2) If she moves away, as long as she's within a certain amount of range, the phone and laptop stay connected. 1) She'll have to enter the key, if she chooses the wireless, over the USB option.

Subject: hot spot

My student wants to set up her phone as a hot spot, instead of using the unreliable internet connection in the apartment complex where she lives.

1. Will her computer connect automatically after the initial set up? 2. When she takes the phone with her away from the computer, is she
still transmitting internet data?
3.  When she comes back home, will the computer find the internet
without her doing anything about it?
4.  What is the down side of the process?

Thanks.  This is uncharted territory for me.  Is there an article
somewhere I can read to learn more?

Thanks,

Ann
