I recently upgraded to Droid X.  I am interested in using my Droid X as a mobile hot spot for my laptop.  Can anyone point me to instructions on how to make this happen?

You will need both the APP & to subscribe for the HotSpot feature - $20/mo.

 

Here are some links that might help.  (This first one is for the Thunderbolt but should apply to the DROID X as well.)

Good luck.

Log into your VZW account online or call up CS.  If you log in, you need to change your features and service.  There is a link on your VZW account home page. Get into that and add the mobile hotspot feature.  It currently runs $20 per month. Or if you prefer, call up Customer Service and have them add the feature to your line.  

 

Once it is added, grab your X and pull up your 3G Hotspot app and follow the onscreen prompts.  

 

Goodluck!
