Sharing Mobile Data Through a Wi-Fi Hotspot
You can share your phone’s data connection with other devices
by turning your phone into a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. The feature
requires a data connection on a mobile network and may result in
data charges.
NOTE: When the portable Wi-Fi hotspot feature is enabled, you
cannot use your phone’s Wi-Fi capability to access the Internet.
You still remain connected to the Internet via your mobile data
network.
1. Press > > Settings > Wi-Fi hotspot.
2. Slide the switch to the On position. (If Wi-Fi was active,
tap OK to deactivate it.)
After a moment, the phone starts broadcasting its Wi-Fi
network name (SSID).
3. On another device, locate your phone via Wi-Fi and connect
with it to start using the phone’s mobile data.
NOTE: To stop sharing your data connection, slide the switch to
the Off
position.

secure your portable Wi-Fi hotspot, and set other options.
