including password.

> Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi.
2 Touch Apps > Settings > Wireless & networks

3 Touch Wi-Fi hotspot to turn on the hotspot.
4 Touch Portable Wi-Fi hotspot to change hotspot security
and configuration:
• Network SSID—Enter a unique name for your
hotspot and touch Next.
•Security—Select Open or WPA2 PSK. If you select
WPA2 PSK, enter a unique password. Other users
can access your Wi-Fi hotspot only if they enter the
correct password.

When your Wi-Fi hotspot is active, other Wi-Fi enabled
devices can connect by entering your hotspot’s SSID,
selecting a Security type, and entering the correct Wireless
password
