Kwiminyaka eliqela bendihlala ndinoxanduva lokusebenzisa ii-terminals ezimbini mihla le, iitheminali endisoloko ndizama ukuba zivela kwiindawo ezahlukeneyo eziphilayo ukubanakho ukuvavanya iingenelo kunye nezinto ezingalunganga zazo, nangona kubonakala ngathi ndingumntu onqabileyo, kuba uninzi lwabasebenzisi bakwimeko efanayo abakhetha ukuphatha iifowuni zombini, ukuba azifani, ukusuka kwindalo enye, yemicimbi yokuhambelana nezinye. Kubo bonke abasebenzisi abasebenzisa iiterminal phantsi kwetywina likaGoogle, inkampani isandula ukumilisela uhlaziyo olutsha lweeNkonzo zikaGoogle zokudlala ezivumela ukwabelana nge-intanethi phakathi kwetheminali, kwimeko apho singenakho ukugubungela iselfowuni okanye uphawu lweWi-Fi olukhoyo ngalo mzuzu.
Lo msebenzi ubizwa ngokuba yi-Instan Thethering, usivumela ukuba sisebenzise uqhagamshelo lwe-intanethi yesinye isiphelo sophawu olunye, iyafumaneka kuphela kwiitheminali zikaGoogle, kumatyala endiphawule ngawo apha ngasentla, kodwa Ngaphandle kokungena kuseto kwaye kufuneka ubhalise kwinethiwekhi ye-wifi enokuthi yenziwe sisixhobo. Ukwenza le nkqubo ngaphandle kokungena ngegama eligqithisiweyo, kuyafuneka ukuba zombini izixhobo zinxulunyaniswe neakhawunti efanayo ye-Gmail, kuba ngale ndlela iiseva zikaGoogle ziya kuba nobungqina bokuba zombini iitheminali zezomntu omnye.
Le nkqubo iyazenzekela kwaye Iqala ukusebenza xa i-terminal esifuna ukunxibelelana nayo kwi-intanethi ingenayo i-Wi-Fi okanye uqhagamshelo lwedatha ngalo mzuzu. Kuya kuba kuhle xa i-terminal isibuza ukuba sifuna ukudibanisa nesinye isiphelo sendlela. Le nkqubo ifana kakhulu naleyo ibikho kangangeminyaka eliqela kwi-iOS, apho sinokunxibelelana nesinye isixhobo esayanyaniswa neakhawunti yethu sisebenzisa uqhagamshelo lwe-intanethi ngaphandle kokufaka igama eligqithisiweyo okanye iPIN yokungena.
