I've been using my phone's mobile data to connect to my PC via USB tethering, and it's generally worked well. However, I sometimes face issues like having to grab my phone for calls while tethered, which can be inconvenient since I'm often moving around. Also, the connection can drop if I accidentally shift the phone. I remember using a USB dongle years ago that created a Wi-Fi network for my PC, but it was pretty unreliable and would disconnect frequently. Now that technology has advanced, I'm wondering if there are reliable USB Wi-Fi dongles available that work well with a 5G mobile connection. I don't need the absolute best speed; just something that provides a stable connection without random drops. I've tried searching for solutions but found mostly broadband offerings instead of what I'm really looking for. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

There are definitely some good Wi-Fi dongles available these days. Just search for "USB Wi-Fi dongle" and look for ones with good reviews. Also, check if your phone has a 'data tethering' option for Wi-Fi, which might help.
I tried searching, but all I found were routers and supplier deals. It's a bit tricky since I'm looking for the term in Finnish, which translates oddly. But I’ll keep at it!
