Sharing your mobile data connection
You can share your tablet’s mobile data connection with a single computer via a
USB cable or via Bluetooth: USB tethering or Bluetooth tethering. You can also
share your tablet’s data connection with up to eight devices at once, by turning
your tablet into a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. (Not all carriers and tablets support these
features.)
When your tablet is sharing its data connection, an icon appears in the Status bar
and as an ongoing notification in the Notifications panel (see “Managing
notifications” on page 24).
For the latest information about tethering and portable hotspots, including
supported operating systems and other details, visit android.com/tether.

connection via USB
If your computer is running Windows 7 or a recent distribution of some flavors of
Linux (such as Ubuntu), you typically don’t need to prepare your computer for
tethering. But if you’re running an earlier version of Windows or another operating
system, you may need to prepare your computer to establish a network connection
via USB. For the most current information about which operating systems support
USB tethering and how to configure them, visit android.com/tether.
