Yeah, 4G tethering is great if:
a) You can plug your phone into the wall b) You have a stable signal c) You have unlimited data d) Your carrier doesn't charge you for the privilege to tether e) You have 4G LTE Which basically means you don't have T-mobile. /rant My friend with Verizon does this for us when we need to DL a Steam game for a LAN, it's 10x faster than the land line connection. |

A few weeks ago I was having some issues with Comcast, they overcharged me for some things, and I refused to pay the bill. They disconnected my internet, and I tethered to HSPA+ phone on AT&T for a few days, it wasn't too bad. I have a 5GB cap, and I used 3GB in a few days. The Comcast issue was resolved btw, they were wrong.

Damn, Not only is Verizon's service ludicrously fast, but they're the only ones in my area to even offer 3g. Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. are ALL stuck at 1x speed around here. I hate their pricing, but I can't deny that they have by far the best network. |

Is the latency high because the upstream is variable? I figured if you are getting a pretty decent upsteam a low ping would follow suit. PC, to wifi to cell to cell tower to backbone. You're going to get variability in that continuously - from what I can tell, pings on 4g are usually 30 - 70 msecs... my wifi is usually 22 - 30 msecs and when on wired, I can get 15 - 20 msecs. Maybe some people can test and report back. |

Pretty bonkers. I wish more hardware developers would take Apple's approach of putting ginormous batteries in their devices. I love my Galaxy Nexus, but my lord the battery life is horrendous. |
