Wireless Joint

So I popped the att sim into a android phone, enabled usb tethering and hooked it up to my MikroTik router. I managed to get the phone to supply internet to my entire network after a bit of tinkering. Currently burning through the gigs to see if I’m limited to the 10 gig of tether data on my plan. ...
