How to Connect a Computer or Laptop to the Internet With an iPhone
Life seems to be too simple with the availability of internet, as we can do whatever we like with a simple click. There is no need to leave your house to watch a movie, as you can easily download one on your computer or laptop and then watch it whenever you have time. You can also stream it, if you don’t like waiting for the downloading.
There are numerous ways of doing one thing and you can choose whatever you want. All you need is a good internet connection and you can stay in touch with the rest of the world. In old days, people had to write letters to their loved ones who were living abroad for some reason.
It used to take a lot of days for the letter to reach the person and then the reply also took similar amount of days to come back. It would have been so annoying to wait this long for just a simple message.
Moreover, you cannot add anything, if the letter has already been sent. So, you had to repeat the same process over again. Thank God we are living in the age of the internet and don’t have to go through this torturing process.
If we need to talk to someone, we can easily do that through dozens of chatting applications such as Skype. Even if the other person is not available at the time, you can drop a message for him/her to read later.
However, sometimes you might not have the internet available on your PC or laptop, which can be annoying, especially if you need it badly. There is no need to worry though, as you can connect the internet from your iPhone to the PC or laptop.
