Sharing your phone's data connection
USB tethering and portable Wi-Fi hotspot are great features when there are no wireless
connections available. You can share your phone's mobile data connection with a
single computer via a USB cable (USB tethering). You can also share your phone's data
connection with more than one device at a time by turning your phone into a portable
Wi-Fi hotspot.
When your phone is sharing its data connection, an icon appears in the status bar and
as an ongoing notification in the notifications drawer.

operating systems and other details, visit http://www.android.com/tether.
