I'm a dummy, so you'll have to bear with me. I barely know how to frame this question, but here goes:
Can I get rid of my Spectrum Cable Internet Service ($69.99/mo.), and use my iPhone 5 as a Personal Hotspot instead?
1) I currently have a limited data plan. I would have to contact Verizon and find out if an unlimited plan would be cheaper than $69.99/mo.
2) I have done a few rudimentary tests. Using the iPhone as a base station appears to allow me to view youtube videos normally and visit the sites that I want to visit. I haven't tried to watch a movie this way yet.
3) Security: What should I be worried about?
4) Any advice is welcome.
Basically, my question is: I'm sick of cable. Can I get rid of cable and use my iPhone in its place?
Thanks.
P.S. I am accessing Mac Forums using my iPhone 5 as a Personal Base Station right now.
