No. It just requires an internet connection. And an ISP that doesn't restrict it.
So if I have a 250mb (sucks I know) limited data plan, tethering my phone and browsing on my laptop won't do anything bad?

You can do it, but you'd burn through 250mb in 1 hour maybe?
Ugh, that's what I meant on the first place...

Well you explained yourself poorly first time then.
If you really don't mind it, disabling images in your browser when using tethering and it may as well be infinite.

And certain scripts.
Opera's browser for pc's [B]ALSO[/B] got a function to compress web traffic in order to minimize bandwith usage.

Well, I have heard that EMT just caps your speed and does not make you pay more. Not sure, haven't went over the limit but that is what my friend said.
