SETTINGS > INTERNET WI-FI
Enable the Wi-Fi router to connect to another Hotspot to share that internet connection.
Internet Wi-Fi or the WAN side on your hotspot refers to the radio network connection.
When the Internet Wi-Fi Switch option is enabled, it is not possible to disconnect the RF WAN side.
The Disconnect button is greyed out. This is because the Wi-Fi Switch function over-rides the manual
disconnect feature. When you fully connect to another local Wi-Fi hotspot then the WAN side data
(RF connection to the network) is disabled.
When you connect to another Wi-Fi hotspot your local WAN is disconnected and your Wi-Fi hotspot
will receive its internet connection from the other hotspot and share this with all your connected
devices.
This could be useful at home where your wireless hotspot can connect to your home Wi-Fi when in
range, and it can be used to extend your home Wi-Fi range by locating the portable hotspot in
another location. The devices connected to your portable hotspot will get their internet connection
from the other connected Wi-Fi hotspot, eg your home network.
