Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot

Use Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot to share your phone’s internet
connection with a PC or other device through Wi-Fi, using
your phone as the mobile hotspot.

Note: Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot requires a subscription to the

applicable service to use the application.

Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot consumes battery power and
uses data service. While the Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot is
active, your phone’s applications will use the Portable
Wi-Fi Hotspot data feature allowance.

including your phone’s name and password, and set the
