Allowed Device List
Control whether devices connect to your Portable Wi-Fi
Hotspot with the Allowed device list. After you add devices to
the list, they can scan for your device and connect using your
device’s Wi-Fi hotspot name (SSID) and password.
Note:
Using your phone as a mobile hotspot consumes battery
power and uses data service. While Portable Wi-Fi
Hotspot is active, your phone’s applications will use your
Wireless Provider’s data service. Roaming while using
your phone as a mobile hotspot will incur extra data
charges.
