Not sure what you mean by a "through test" but can tell you that PdaNet / FireFox works without issue with the S7 just as it did with the S5 and S6. In regard to testing, I have been a beta tester of the app and know the in's and outs lets call it. Anyway S7 is aok with PdaNet / FireFox.

Thanks sherlock, that is encouraging.

What carriers

I have only tested with the Verizon network as I mentioned in the original post.

thank you

Not being a wise guy...serious question: why do I need PDA Net since the (Verizon) S#'s have a hot spot capability. Is there some advantage I'm missing? Thanks.

Verizon used to charge an arm and leg
For the privilege of wifi hotspot
Instead of the current ,? Low $10 add-on fee
Also Verizon does not allow hot spot or tether if you have a grandfathered unlimited plan
They allow new plan customers to hotspot because they want them/you to use up your 3 gig plan allotment and pay for overage

Thanks Mr. Wizard. Understand.

Verizon no longer charges for using your phone's hotspot capability. We use it all the time, no charges, good connections. I used PDAnet before, was generally reliable.
