Are you going on a summer vacation and are you worried about data consumption on your laptop? If you use a PC with Windows 10 so you can control it

It may or may not be your case, but if so, you may be interested in this guide. And it is that when we go on vacation many times we carry our laptop to our vacation spot even though we do not have an internet connection, at least not the flat rate of ADSL or Fiber that we have at home.

"

In that case and if we want to connect to the network it is essential to use _Tethering_, a great idea that is limited by the limits in gigabytes to use. If you use high-capacity rates like Pepephone&39;s Inimitable or Yoigo&39;s Sinfin and you&39;re a normal user, you won&39;t have any problems.Another thing is if you are an intensive user, in which case the data can fly. For this reason it is interesting to keep track of the data consumed and if you use a computer with Windows 10 you can do it directly from your PC. "

Before continuing and how there are people who don't know it, clarify the concept we are talking about Tethering or anchoring to the network, is the process by which a mobile terminal with an Internet connection is capable of acting as a gateway or as a wireless or wired access point, sharing said connection with other devices such as laptops, mobile phones or tablets, assuming the role of router during the process.

And once clarified, it's time to continue with the tutorial since yes, we already we know that we have the data counter of the _smartphone_ or the application on duty from our operator , but it never hurts to have another way to count how much we have spent on our rate.And for that we are only going to have to follow a few steps

"

First of all, and as usual, we go to the Settings menu (you know, the gear wheel at the bottom left) and a Once inside we select the section Network and Internet."

"

We have already entered and once in this section we must look in the left column for the option Data usage."

We _click_ on it and after a few seconds of waiting we will see the data consumption, either by Wi-Fi or by Ethernet of the last 30 days.

"

We will also see how a gray box appears with the title Details of use. So we _click_ on it and see how a new window opens where we see the detailed use of what each application has consumed."

And it is that although the limit of those 30 days can be a but, it can help us to count what we have spent on our vacations(if you are not a teacher or professor, more than a month is difficult). A way to complete the information that our mobile can offer us in order to have better control of what we have spent in a few days in which lack of control can become a small problem.
