What is Mobile Tethering?


Tethering enables devices like phones, tablets, and iPads to access the internet through your phone, utilizing your data. There are different types of tethering, i.e., Bluetooth tethering, USB cable tethering, and Wi-Fi hotspot tethering.   

Talk Home Mobiles offer unrestricted tethering to friends and family across the UK. Share your mobile data without any restrictions.
