Tether Check
Tired of Windows lying about your tethering status?
Tether Check is ideal for Windows laptop users who tether their computer to their phone or dongle. Tether Check will keep you notified about your phone's real internet connection status so you can get the most out of your mobile internet connection.
If you tether your mobile phone's 3G or 4G internet connection to your laptop, you'll be aware of the frustration when you suddenly lose phone reception and their internet drops out.
You know you can't trust the Windows network tray icon as it just tells you the connection strength between your computer and your phone. So you end up constantly pressing F5 to refresh your web page in the hope that you get back into an area with network coverage.
Things are different if you have Tether Check installed. When your phone's connection is dropped and restored, a Tether Check alert will let you know you can start work or refresh that web page, saving you time and making you more productive.
