Tethering and Portable 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 Portable hotspot 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 “Tethering” on page 151 or see
“Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot” on page 151.

network connection.
