HTC Pro 7
Last month I almost maxed out my 500MB of mobile internet usage from Orange – this made me think, how much of this could I have saved if I used Wi-Fi more often?
As it stands I have complete wireless coverage at home though my Belkin Router, also at work we have a complete site wide wireless network powered by Aerohive which provides both students and staff with free internet. As I would expect to spend the majority of my internet using hours between these two locations I should hope to see a substantial drop in my mobile internet usage.
Usually I’d go the day with Wireless turned off – after all it ‘drains the battery’ however over the past few days I’ve actually found that my battery usage is no higher with Wi-Fi turned on all of the time and so long as I keep to my overnight phone charging routine I don’t see myself running out of battery power during a normal day.
