Can this be used as a wifi hot spot?

Yes. Go in to the playstore and download the app called foxfi. Works amazing

Yes, the phone is capable of acting as a hot spot. The issue is whether your carrier will enable this use of the device. Some companies specifically state that your device cannot be used in this manner due to the high amount of data usage it requires. However, the phone definitely has that capability.

yes, it will work as an access point, meaning you connect to its own SSID (WiFi Broadcast Name) and use Airplay.

Yes, I did that with mine. I use one as a router and one as an access point. It got rid of some dead spots in my wireless coverage. I also hard wired my blu-ray player to the access point. I get 100 mbs hard wired and up to 72 mbs wireless. I was quite satisfied.

You can connect this to any router or wifi hot spot. I have 2 of these and use them to get N access on the 5ghz range on my dual band router at home. They are small and easy to use.

I believe you can if the router supports certain features that allow this to work without too much trouble. Don't remember what they're called at the moment. However, I'd highly suggest you just disable the WiFi in your router. The signal produced by these is excellent and they do support hosting the same WiFi name and it works great.

Not familiar with your terminology...you mean like a mifi (hot spot)? IF so, yes it would work.

Hot spot is the same as Wi-FI so yes it is hot spot capable, unless you are no where near a wireless connection than you would have to buy a hot spot connector from your wireless dealer. I hope this helps.

I have used it as an extender. I am not sure that you can hook it up to get wifi

No, sadly not. There are wifi hotspots that you can purchase, but it is strictly wifi connected

Yes you can.It extends whatever signal you give it.You can use you phone as a Hotspot and then give it more range with this. Your phone would then act as a modem or router, basically.

yes. This speaker has a built in wifi hot spot, although you can not use the hotspot to surf the web. You can use it for wireless streaming of music from just about any device

I see others have answered this - yes, you can use it as an access point or repeater. You can even set it up to bridge two WLANs.

Don't see why not. Since it can be programmed via cable, there should be no reason it wouldn't work, but that isn't what it is designed for. It is a specialty piece of electronics specifically designed to pick up wifi and expand it. You could just buy any router if you want to hard wire it, don't need a special piece like this.

Yes. Wifi would work. Considering its a strong dedicated signal, it should work well. Good luck.

There's no reason why you couldn't, however the unit is quite large. Depending on your application, you may be better off with a nanostation for this access point.

Yes you can. I purchased mine through HSN and had the option to pick just Wi-Fi,(unlocked) or, get one on a plan for a "hot spot". But with two Wi-Fi antennas, I seriously doubt you'd need to pay for a plan as long as you are near a wi-fi source.And I do believe you have the same choice through Apple.com
