Thank you

My Moto G Stone seems to be all set, Fascinating

[makkahn28]

The Technical Support Guy I spoke to was Very Rude, Laughed at Me on Phone. I feel Insulted. Is ThisThe World Class Service I Was Hoping for? I feel like Public Mobile wants us Gone. I am Deeply Upset

[makkahn28]

Hi. Thanks Martin. You are Great at This. Now I must, with all due Respect, Mildly Scold Public Mobile for Forgetting to add the Tethering Info.

I am attempting to setup, so When I am somewhere and Need To Use Something, like My Nintendo 3DS, or Need Quick Use for Laptop to do Mild Work, Having to Call *611 to get that Support.

Shame on Public Mobile for Lack of Info. That Adds More Stress to Me, and Now Add More Steps to My To Do List. Public Mobile Should have a Complete Comprehensive Setup Guide for APN and Tethering Setup, so PPL can have full Function. No Disrespect Intended, But Shame on You for Lack of Details. Now I will have to Do all the Info Guide Myself. I at Least would want to Help My Fellowship PPL who want to Have World-Class Experience. Just My way of Constructive Criticism, Unless Public Mobile doesn't Tolerate Any Criticism at All. Then I'll Keep Quiet and Steer Clear of Community.

Only ,dun was missing from your presets because tethering was not permitted under the old Terms of Service when data was unlimited.

The above questions are not within my area of expertise. My apologies!

[Martin]

Add ,dun to hipri

[makkahn28]

Also, How Do I Activate Tethering? Can I use WEP, AS WELL AS WPA, WPA2, ETC?,Especially WEP

[makkahn28]

This was Already Preset. Is this all required? Or Not?

[makkahn28]

Here's the other

This is One Snapshot of My Setup

makkahn28,

I have 2 Moto G smartphones, but only one with a SIM card. The one with the card is currently recharging. Without the card, the settings will not appear, and therefore I am unable to provide you with a screen capture.

As previously stated, Google is your best friend. It has all the information that you are seeking.

[makkahn28]

Can You give me an Visual, Snapshot, so I can enter properly? I concerned I may enter something wrong, and Screw up My Handset to access Data, or something worse. Not as Technically Literate yet. Lots to Learn.

[Martin]

makkahn28,

Go to Settings in your Moto G. Look for Wireless & Networks. Click "More ..." under Data Usage. Click Mobile Networks. Using the plus sign add ",dun" (with the comma, but without the quotation marks) to APN type.

[makkahn28]

Where Exactly? Can You give Me a Visual and Highlight the sections if Possible? Thanks

[Martin]

makkahn28,

Add dun (all lower case) to APN type.

[makkahn28]

Just Wanting to Know. So that I May eventually attempt to use My Phone as a Temporary Wifi Hot for my PC When at College, only when College Wifi Acts up. Also, How to Turn Tethering On, What Steps to follow?

[makkahn28]

That's Pretty Funny. Its DUN Standing For Dial-Up Network. Sounds like a Stand-Up Comedy. 

No Disrespect intended. Now, Where to Place it, And How to Place it in Stone Settings

[Martin]

makkahn28,

It's DUN, standing for Dial-Up Networking.
