If the Connection is “Always On,” Am I Always Being
Billed?
No; the connection to the network goes dormant after a period of inactivity, but the connection
can be re-established faster than having to reconnect. Billing occurs only when data is passed
across the network.
How can I Stream Files to my Computer, Tablet, or
Mobile Phone?
Your Sierra Wireless 4G LTE Tri-Fi Hotspot can serve as a Digital Media Server (DMS),
providing content to networked digital media players (DMP) and digital media renderers (DMR).
You can, for example, play audio or movie files (stored on the microSD card inserted in your
hotspot) on a computer, tablet, mobile phone, or TV that supports DLNA. (
Note:
The software
on the device must support the types of files you’re trying to play. If you’re having problems,
check the user documentation of the software.)
If your device supports DLNA, see
Enabling DLNA Media Server
. (For a list of products that
support DLNA, see
