There are strong indications that Laptop radiations have adverse health effects on human health. Although there are conflicting opinions on whether or not such laptop radiations are harmful. Studies have continued to show that humans have limited intensity of radiation their bodies can withstand beyond which might become harmful and dangerous to the well-being of man.
Laptop
Laptops are portable computers that can be carried around in a handy way and even placed on laps to work.
There have being various studies on electromagnetic radiations from electronic devices especially laptop computers .
Truth be told, all other electronic gadgets such as television, cell phones, microwave ovens, Wireless routers etc. emit such radiations as well, but what makes those of laptops critical is the fact that laptops are often carried on laps or even much closer to human systems . The said closeness to human bodies shortens the distance between the electromagnetic frequencies waves and the human body.
It is believed also that the nearer such waves to the human body, the more the intensity and the higher the risk of damaging cells thereby possibly leading to cancer.
Ionizing radiation is an energy type released by atoms that move in the form of electromagnetic waves (gamma or X-rays) or particles (neutrons, beta or alpha). The automatic continuous disintegration of atoms is called radioactivity, and the excess energy emitted is a form of ionizing radiation.
World Health Organisation- W.H.O report of 2012 declared after research that certain amount of such radiations beyond a particular level can be injurious to human health and possess the tendency to cause health hazard. According to W.H.O the following facts were deduced from their findings.
Ionizing radiation is a type of energy released by atoms in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles.
People are exposed to natural sources of ionizing radiation, such as in soil, water, vegetation, and in human-made sources, such as x-rays and medical devices.
Ionizing radiation has many beneficial applications, including uses in medicine, industry, agriculture and research.
As the use of ionizing radiation increases, so does the potential for health hazards if not properly used or contained.
Acute health effects such as skin burns or acute radiation syndrome can occur when doses of radiation exceed certain levels.
Low doses of ionizing radiation can increase the risk of longer term effects such as cancer.
In this write-up, we will discuss ways by which we can boost Wi-Fi signal strength.
Wi-Fi is a technology that uses radio frequency signals to provide wireless network thereby allowing network/internet users to connect to the network without using a cable. Wi-Fi makes use of devices to achieve that. One of the examples of the devices is a Wi-Fi router.

Let us learn how to share phone internet with other devices like laptop, desktop computer and tablet.
Having internet service in smart phones is good as it allows for handy use of internet on motion. It’s like saying you are carrying the world in your pocket. Mobile phones aside their primary function of voice call, are also very useful in other means of communication such as mobile researching, email messaging, transfer of files via Wi-Fi, SMS, social networking, gaming, video messaging, entertainment etc.
However, there is often the issue of multiple data subscription by most users. Meaning, they subscribe on their phones and still pay for another plan for their computers or other devices for browsing.
This makes us to be financially wasteful as most smart phones come with a feature that enables one to share phone internet between mobile phone , computers and tabelts. Sometimes the reason most users suffer this fate is due to ignorance of the fact that the facility exist in their gadgets , besides, some who know a times lack the technical know how to set it up working.
What is Mobile Hotspot?
This is a facility in your mobile phone that allows you to share phone internet data on the phone with other external devices such as computers, tablets etc.
How easy is the process to share phone internet?
As simple as a b c. I want to say that you do not need a special technical training session to share phone internet as am I am going to guide you into doing it yourself step by step here and at the end you will discover it’s just like a child’s play . There are other means by which you can share phone internet from your mobile phone with your computers or other devices though such as Bluetooth and USB cables. However, our focus at the moment is on Mobilehotspot which is quite more reliable, fast and efficient as it works based on the same technology as broadband to share phone internet.
There are different types of connections used, but the most common are third generation (3G) and fourth generation (4G) technologies. At the moment it is not clear whether or not hotspot technology works with the earlier generation technologies like 2G as they are way slower in speed and even lower in capacity hence, we cant be sure if we can share phone internet using them.
Does my phone have hotspot to share phone internet?
It is pertinent to mention that not all phone categories can work with the technology or even possess the facility, however most recent smart phones have Wi-Fi hotspot inbuilt. Besides, some companies make provision for USB hotspot adapters for computers.
I remember a colleague ones approached me to assist in setting up such internet service so he can share with his laptop, on checking the phone, it didn’t have the hotspot and that made him unhappy. Hence it is also important that you seek guidance before purchasing any mobile phone because most of those features count when considering the type or class of phone to buy.
Although some internet service providers do not allow such sharing or they sometimes may require you to subscribe to a different plan to enjoy that service, it may at that point be a wise choice to consult them , but for those who do not mind, you can proceed to activate and enjoy the facility.
Changing Mobile HOTSPOT Password on your android device
By default android Wi-Fi hotspot is password secure so there won’t be unauthorised access to your phone by people you do not permit to do so.
The level of closeness some of us develop to our mobile phones sometimes grow so tight to the extent that often times the feeling of losing them is unbearable due to tons of information stored in them and the frequent interactions we often make with the devices.
Do you know that even if you lose your mobile phone or device, it is still possible to retrieve if some steps were adequately taken to secure the gadget before it got missing or stolen?read more

No doubt, the internet has positively transformed several operations regarding information processing, storage, dissemination, retrieval, and research exercise thereby developing the entire world economy.

Businesses were also moving at snail speeds, consequently giving rise to sluggish economic growth resulting in poverty and stagnation across the nations. Indeed the superlative advantages of the internet revolution cannot be over emphasized.read more
