Hotspot: A hotspot is a physical location where people can access the Internet, typically using Wi-Fi, via a wireless local area network (WLAN) with a router connected to an Internet service provider. While many public hotspots offer free wireless access on an open network, others require payment.

Examples include the Hawaii, Iceland and Yellowstone hotspots. A hotspot’s position on the Earth’s surface is independent of tectonic plate boundaries, and so hotspots may create a chain of volcanoes as the plates move above them.

Most hot spots are located at mid-ocean ridges, but there are a few located in the middle of plates, like Hawaii and Yellowstone. This is a map of the Hawaiian Islands today.

Smartphone Mobile Hotspot is a feature that is built into Apple and Android smartphones, at no additional cost to you, that allows other devices such as a tablet or laptop computer to connect to the internet using your smartphone’s Wi-Fi Hotspot function.

Wifi is used between wireless devices and an access point for interconnection. While the hotspot is created using an access point device that is connected to the router. Wifi is more secure in comparison to hotspot. Hotspots are less secure than private wifi as they are typically used in public places.

You can connect to a Personal Hotspot using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB. If other devices have joined your Personal Hotspot using Wi-Fi, you can use only cellular data to connect to the Internet from the host device.

Your 4G or LTE data from your phone is often faster than your home Wi Fi. You would probably expect this to be the other way around, especially since your Wi Fi router relies on a fixed-line broadband connection, rather than having to connect to the nearest 4G tower.

Light usage 10GB is roughly enough data for any one of the following: 500 Hours browsing. 2500 Music Tracks. 64 Hours streaming music.

around 50 hours

You could consume 700MB per hour for 21 hours and use all of your 15GB. If that is all you have for the month, then you may want to stay away from streaming video on your mobile hotspot. Streaming music on Spotify will give you much more time with 15GB of data.
