AT&T iPhone Personal Hotspot
I've just discovered that our iPhone 4's can create the personal hotspot and allow our WIFI only iPads to connect. We have a new shared data plan with 4 GB/month. (We think that is plenty) my question...

Question here - when you are in the HOTSPOT mode does your cellphone still send and receive calls at the same time?
couple years back. Everyone was using their cell phones as hotspot and all of the data used was unlimited. n
I used to tether on ATT but they knew how much data I was using. It still goes thru their system.
I just tried it with my Droid Razr on Verizon and I was able to make a call while running a Speedtest, no problem, no hesitation. I think you can only do it with a 4G connection, not with 3G.
I think Android has been able to do data and voice at the same time for quite awhile. I remember a few generations back Android couldn't do it and Apple used to use that in their ads but not any longer.
I use the hotspot feature on my Droid Razr at my stick house because the 4G on my phone is much faster than my regular ISP. I've used as much as 24G in a month on my phone (have been doing that for a couple of years) using it's grandfathered unlimited data plan and have never heard a peep from Verizon. I use my phone to download large files and to stream movies via Netflix and the like.
