USB Tethering
This option allows you to share your device’s mobile data connection
via a direct USB connection between your device and a single
computer. The Mobile HotSpot connectivity is a wireless version
of this same functionality and allows you to provide Internet
connectivity to multiple devices.
• For more information on tethering with operating systems, go
to www.android.com/tether .
• You cannot mount your device’s microSD card to your
computer while using the USB Tethering feature. If additional
software or USB drivers are required, go to
www.samsung.
com/us/support/downloads .
• When you connect your phone to a computer with a USB
cable, you can either share your mobile data connection via
tethering OR you can share files—you cannot do both. Do not
turn on tethering if you want to use your computer to access
your phone’s memory card.
To connect using USB Tethering:
1. From the Home screen, tap
( Menu) g Settings g
Connections tab g More networks g Tethering and
Mobile HotSpot.
2. Plug in the USB cable between your computer and your device.
3. Tap USB tethering from the Tethering menu. This places a
green check mark next to the entry and activates the feature.
A Tethering or HotSpot active notification briefly appears on
the screen.
