Allowed Devices List
Control whether devices connect to your Portable Wi-Fi
Hotspot with the Allowed devices 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 tablet as a mobile hotspot consumes battery
power and uses data service. While the Portable Wi-Fi
Hotspot is active, your tablet’s applications will use U.S.
Cellular®’s data service. Roaming while using your
tablet as a mobile hotspot will incur extra data charges.
