Additional Ideas for Connecting to the
Internet
As an alternative to turning your iPad into a Wi-Fi hotspot, you may find it less
expensive to turn your mobile phone into a Wi-Fi hotspot and let your iPad con-
nect to the Internet through your phone. You can also buy a portable Wi-Fi hot-
spot that has its own cellular data plan, which might be less expensive than going
through the iPad’s cellular data plan. By piggy backing off another device’s existing
wireless Internet connection, you can spare yourself from paying for a cellular data
plan on youriPad.
