With
the internet of things, communication among devices and gadgets have
been made very easy. It doesn’t take forever anymore to connect your
laptop to your phone’s hotspot. This is probably why you can now connect
your hotspot to your computer for browsing. Regardless, for some people
who use hotspot, their mobile data doesn’t last which is not supposed
to be. So, they are discouraged from using the hotspot.
Reduce the use of multimedia
If
you use hotspot, and you want to save data, you should avoid watching
videos and music streaming. This is because more data is required for
viewing and playing videos and music.
Turn off automatic update
Whenever
you use hotspot, always turn off the automatic update on your phone. It
may have been long your computer was updated, and immediately your
system is connected to a hotspot, it will begin to update. Before you say, Jack Robinson, your data is exhausted.
Don’t forget to end all downloads
You
may be downloading a movie on a public Wi-Fi and you are unable to
finish. However, you forgot to stop or end the download and you later
connect your hotspot, the download will simply continue from where it
stopped earlier with the use of your data.
Optimise Wi-Fi settings
You
should activate your hotspot for shorter low-power Wi-Fi. This will
make it possible for data to be less consumed while browsing with
hotspot.
Observe data level
Notwithstanding
the fact that you have enough data on your phone, you should not ignore
it when you connect your hotspot with your computer. You should always
check it from time to time so that you will be aware of your data
balance. This will let you know how to use it carefully and consciously.
Stop all background applications
Like
your phone, your laptop also has background apps running. Some of these
apps need internet to function optimally. So, end all background
applications before you connect your hotspot.
