| Set Up Internet Tethering for $20 per Month |
Tethering is one of the most useful applications that smartphones have when you are carrying around multiple devices like an iPad or laptop. Tethering lets customers use their tethering-enabled smartphones as a WiFi network to provide a broadband connection for laptop computers, netbooks or other computing devices. AT&T smartphone iPhone customers who choose the DataPro which provides only 2 GB of data plan have the option to add tethering for an additional $20 per month. Carriers like T-Mobile allow tethering or FREE and they also have a faster HSPA+ 4G network. T-Mobile allows their customers to tether their unlimited data plan phones but this will clearly be put to a halt if AT&T acquires.

How much does the 2GB DataPro pro provide? 2 GB of data should be enough to send/receive 10,000 emails with no attachments, 1,500 with attachments, 4,000 web pages, 500 photos to social media sites, watch 200 minutes of streaming video. If a customer exceeds 2 GB during a billing cycle they will receive an additional 1 GB of data for $10 for use in the pay cycle. Currently, 98 percent of AT&T smartphone customers use less than 2 GB of data a month on average but not likely those who tether their phones.
