When your Wi-Fi is down or you need internet on your laptop while traveling, your iPhone can save the day. While most people use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth tethering, USB tethering is often the best option—yet it's the most overlooked.

Unlike Wi-Fi hotspots, the data travels through the wire. | Feature | USB Tethering | Wi-Fi Hotspot | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Speed | Faster (lower latency) | Good, but prone to interference | | Battery Drain | Charges your iPhone while tethering | Drains battery very quickly | | Stability | Rock-solid, no signal drops | Can drop due to interference | | Security | Very secure (physical connection) | Less secure (open to brute force) | | Heat | Less heat generation | Phone gets very hot |
