162 Chapter 10 : Web and wireless connections
IMPORTANT The Palm mobile hotspot requires a fast data connection with
your wireless service provider's network and only works when you're within a
wireless coverage area. Additional data charges or monthly subscription fees may
apply. Please contact your wireless service provider regarding applicable charges
before using this application. Be aware that unless your data plan is unlimited you
may accumulate significant data charges using this application, especially when
roaming. While Palm mobile hotspot is active, other applications on your phone
continue to work, and any data sent or received counts against your mobile
hotspot data plan allowance (if applicable).
If you just want to browse the web on your phone, use the phone’s browser
(see
Web ).
Palm mobile hotspot has a range of up to 170 feet (about 50 meters). The
actual range varies depending on environmental conditions, such as
obstructions and radio interference.
When using Palm mobile hotspot, your phone’s battery charge may not last
as long as usual. When possible, to improve battery performance, you
should charge your battery while using Palm mobile hotspot (see
Charge
the battery ).
Secure hotspots and open hotspots
When using Palm mobile hotspot, we recommend that you create a secure
hotspot (see
Create a secure hotspot ). A secure hotspot is protected with a
passphrase, so you can control who can connect to the Internet through
your phone by controlling the distribution of your passphrase.
If you create an open hotspot (see Create an open hotspot ), you cannot
control who connects to the Internet through your phone. You might want
to create an open hotspot, however, if you are temporarily working with a
small group and you don’t feel you need to set up a secure hotspot and
distribute a passphrase.
