Hi, I know for sure that tethering (tested on a Nokia lumia with wifi hotspot) works with no additional charges with prepaid monthly plan "Tim special". Furthermore, i tried to read on some Italian forums and it seems it's the same with iOS devices.

On my iPhone I have tre prepaid weekly plan (it is advertised as a monthly plan, but charging is weekly) "all-in large" and I have been tethering other devices with no additional charges, despite this plan is intended "for surfing from smartphone only".

You may use also 4g data for additional 5€/month with Tim and 1€/month with tre. Consider Tim has a more capillar network and 4g is available also in some minor cities/villages, tre has 4g only in major cities. For a normal use 3G speeds should be enough.

If you need to go to really remote areas I may suggest Tim, since they operate also on capillar 2g network (with edge), indeed tre is 3-4g only.
