Hi Hugh, The as yet unreleased version of iOS, version 4.3, has a new personal hotspot feature. This will allow one to turn their iPhone into a five node wifi hub with password security. The new feature may or may not be blocked by your service provider, and may incur an extra charge. You would with this hotspot be able to access the Internet from your iPad using your iPhone as a wireless hub — or vise-versa.
I just ten minutes ago, as a paid-up iOS developer, downloaded and installed a beta version of iOS 4.3. I want to avoid an extra charge from Vodafone, but the temptation to try the new feature may just be too great. Sort of like a chocolate in the bar-fridge of a hotel room. :-) Cheers, Carlo Sent from my iPad On 19/01/2011, at 12:38, Hugh Griffiths <hgriffi...@lgc.com> wrote: > Hi, I have used my iphone to connect my laptop to the internet where I don’t > have wireless access, is it possible to do this also with an ipad? > > > > > > Best Regards > > Hugh Griffiths > > > > mobile +61 407 477 311 > > office +61 (0) 8 6424 4801 > > Any commercial terms stated or implied are subject to final approval and > negotiations.
