You don&#8217;t need to buy extra equipment or search for public networks that are often slow or unreliable. You have your own internet in your pocket, wherever your mobile phone has coverage. Furthermore, the answer to the question of whether <\/span><\/span><b><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">you can share data remotely<\/span><\/span><\/b><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is clear: as long as your devices are within a few meters of your portable Wi-Fi hotspot, the connection will be flawless.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Disadvantages: battery usage and data consumption<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">It won&#8217;t all be perfect.
