Okay guys. I need your technical expertise... my MiFi card port was broken, but it still works temporarily as a Wireless signal until my battery dies (and with a broken port i'd never be able to recharge, hence the need to get a new one).
Well that's what I thought. But I turned off the device... I TURNED OFF THE DEVICE. And I am still connected to the internet. MY INTERNET.
Not that I'm complaining... but what the hell?!
It's like this girl who called in a week ago and told us that even though we had suspended her phone service (she couldn't call or receive calls)she could still somehow send and receive text messages. And we basically had to tell her: "kudos for your honesty, but there's nothing we can do to stop you."
Seriously man, WTF?

Perhaps the laptop you use has found and connected to other unsecured WiFi internet connection automatically. Disable the OS internet connection or hardware manually may fix the strange problem. Is the problem affect your phone bill or bandwidth usage?

Nah actually when I removed the battery the signal died. I guess it was still turned on but there was a problem with the LED.

Extra little bit of energy left after it's removal perhaps?
