A technician is using a PAN to connect a group of users on a field project. Which of the following services should the technician activate on the mobile device to share the internet data connection?
Tethering allows a device to share its internet connection with other devices, effectively turning the phone into a portable hotspot. This is the most suitable option for a scenario where a technician needs to provide internet access to multiple devices in a field project.
A hotspot is a physical location where devices can connect to the internet. Tethering essentially creates a virtual hotspot on the mobile device. Therefore, tethering is the correct answer when discussing sharing a mobile device's internet connection. Using a hotspot implies a dedicated physical device set up as a router, which is not the case with tethering.
This is a tricky question. Question says the tech is using a PAN to connect a group of users but then asks what the tech should activate on the mobile device to share internet data. I am reading this as the tech is using his phone which is the PAN. To provide internet from his PAN to multiple users he would enable his hotspot so the answer is D.
It’s definitely option D - Hotspot! Tethering can be a method of sharing a mobile device’s internet connection, but it typically refers to using a cable to connect a device to a laptop or computer. Pairing is used to connect two devices together, like a phone and a Bluetooth headset, but doesn’t share internet data. Bluetooth is a wireless technology, but it’s not designed to share an internet connection. Hotspot, on the other hand, is designed to share the device’s cellular or Wi-Fi internet connection with other devices through a wireless network. In this case, that’s exactly what the technician needs to do!
To share the internet data connection with a group of users on a field project, the technician should activate the hotspot feature on the mobile device. Hotspot functionality allows the device to act as a wireless access point, enabling other devices to connect to it and share its internet connection. Tethering is a similar concept but often refers to connecting a device to another via USB or Bluetooth to share the internet connection. In this context, hotspot (option D) is the most appropriate choice for connecting a group of users.
