I couldn't find a way to tether my long-serving Nokia N97 Mini with my new Tablet S. Appears that the Nokia only does ad hoc, not infrastructure, and that the Tablet S doesn't do ad hoc, only infrastructure. I don't think I want to try "rooting" my new Tablet. So it seems my only option to share internet is to find a new phone that allows that, maybe through installing an app on both my new phone and Tablet (can't do that with Symbian apparently--cross-platform)?
So please share with me your existing phones that you use to share your 3G mobile networks with your Tablet S so I can consider buying one of them soon. I hate to part with my Nokia, but there doesn't seem to be a solution here.
Also, I have the grandfathered AT&T data plan using a non-smartphone, as the Nokia isn't recognized as a smartphone (AT&T never sold them basically). So I want to keep that going forward--so my new phone has to not be in serious danger of being recognized as a smartphone and bumped up to a higher cost, limited data plan. I'd like to keep my phone cost under $300, and without a new contract with AT&T. Doesn't need to be the latest phone, but at least a little better than my old Nokia N97 Mini would be good.
Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
