1. Connect your phone to a computer using a USB cable.
2. On the Home screen, tap Settings > Network & internet > Hotspot & tethering.

Then you can use the computer to access the internet.
Note: Depending on your computer’s operating system, you may need to install phone drivers on the
computer or establish a network connection in order to use USB tethering. Please read the instructions for
your operating system.

more information about Bluetooth connection, see Pair your phone with another device.
2. On the Home screen, tap Settings > Network & internet > Hotspot & tethering, and switch

hold to go to the Bluetooth screen. On the Currently connected list, tap the paired device
and switch on Internet access to share your mobile data with the paired device.
