Moreover it is surely the cheapest way to connect from a laptop (should be only circa 150 a month)

People want tethering because cell phone access is more prevalent than internet/wifi access.  The speed would only be as fast as what the cell phone provider can do (EDGE/3G/etc.)  In this case people aren't using tethering to replace their main internet connection, but to have easier access to the internet wherever they are.

The only catch is if i am able to receive the wifi signal in my hotel.

#12 Post at 5-1-2011 16:25  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Some hotels have a business center that have free wifi if you are a guest there. Then they charge extra for internet in the room. Are you trying to tether with a prepaid phone card? I tried to go online with my phone with a prepaid sim inserted in there. The phone couldn't even get online. Not sure if i would try it tethered. That would just be a nightmare to try and config.
