Through your phone? _______________________________________ COYG!

| What set-up costs are involved, MVL? is it subscription based? Any 4k material to view? Hang on, why don't I just Google it, FFS. |

| Just a one off product payment. Very easy to install (just download the app to PC or phone and follow the instructions).
I have it on my PC and phone.
All it does is give you the ability to display the internet on your TV. It gives a direct connection from your router the Chrome Cast on the TV.
Your TV must have an HDMI port (and preferably a USB port to power it - there is a power lead supplied so that you can plug it into a normal socket).
You should also check that your router is compliant. I had to wait for a Chrome Cast update (automatically updated when I first connected) before mine worked.

| Sounds good, I am looking to use one with my phone as the router/ internet source when I am drifting round and about. _______________________________________ COYG!

Cheer, MVL. I don't think I need it if it only streams your internet to the tv. I have recently purchased a new TV with web browsing, PC mirroring, bluetooth keyboard etc. |

See here though Lots of people do it in vans, they have a laptop with a phone on a USB cable and use the 3G on the phone with the phone acting as router, works well. |
