Tech gurus
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 through Straightalk. I also have a laptop. How can I use the laptop through the phone data connection? I need to access a business website that has images that are too small for my phone.

Some phones have tehering enabled or can be... Turning your phone into a hotspot.
You can usually pay for tether usage also, depending on plan. I use Pdanet /foxfi for usb tehering to a laptop. Paid version only one worth anything. Doesn't work on all phones either. |
Pull down the connections menu.
Does it say tethering or hotspot? Does your plan include it? Most plans do not as it is an added feature. |

With monthly service providers, hotspot is usually an extra cost option, so even if the phone itself has the capability, tethering still won't work until the option is enabled by the provider. Easiest solution: Just take the laptop to a McDonald's or Starbucks and use their WiFi. |

No one who is over 80 should even have a cell phone.
