Can I use the wireless internet service for my cell phone on my desktop computer?
Question by Robert: Can I use the wireless internet service for my cell phone on my desktop computer?
I am moving to a rural area that only has dial-up internet service. Cell phones work fine in this area. If I get a cell phone package with internet service, can I somehow get my computer’s internet from the cell phone?

There are USB cables for computer to cellphones to transmit data thought the cellphone system but that is slow and clumsy. Best bet is a wireless aircard in your computer. That will require you get a card for your computer to plug the aircard into. I also recommend a cellular antenna for best reception. Wireless data cards use a different service which is data oriented and much faster.
