Tethering and Mobile HotSpot
The Tethering option allows you to share your device’s
mobile data connection via a direct USB connection between
your device and computer.
The Mobile HostSpot feature allows you to turn your device
into a Wi-Fi hotspot. The feature works best when used in
conjunction with HSPA+ (4G) data services (although 3G
service can also be used).
For more information, see
“USB Tethering”
on page 157 or
see
“Mobile Wi-Fi HotSpot”
on page 158.
