tablet as hotspot?

Perfect, thank you all!

Three years ago I shot a video of my Verizon 4G LTE 64GB iPad being used as a hotspot for my Mac Book Air and iPod Touch.

In order for a table (or laptop or phone for that matter) to work as The Hotspot - it needs to be part-phone. It needs a SIM card from ATT, VZ, Sprint or T-Mobile (etc.) and it needs to be activated by your carrier.

Some tablets are WiFi only - they cannot become a hotspot for other devices. Others can do both - act as a hotspot and WiFi in.

I have a couple of iPads that *can* be hotspots, but I've never bothered to buy a SIM card and activate them with my carrier (ATT).

We use the VERIZON MIFI units here for our WIFI HOT SPOT. This allows up to five WIFI enabled devices to get on the internet. I understand I can also use my DROID-X CELL PHONE to generator a MOBILE HOTSPOT but have never tried that yet...

I'm assuming you have the Samsung Verizon 4G LTE model? If so, just use the built in hotspot app.
