Use your phone as a modem

You can use your phone as a modem by setting up a personal area network
(PAN). Using your phone as a modem lets you access the Internet from your
computer anywhere you can connect to your wireless service provider’s
network. Check with your wireless service provider to see if your service
plan supports this feature.

your computer to your phone. You must initiate the connection from
