Pardon, if this is a Dupe.
As I was entering a reply I tapped an area off of the reply screen and all I
wrote vanished.
Such is life for a beginner with his newish toy.

My router used to have a DSL Modem on its WAN output.
I wish to use a cat5 Bluetooth device in its place to let the router use data
that is on the phone even tho I know there will be an upcharge for my doing
that .

Thanks for the idea to use Aftershock app.
Will look into it.
