Mobile Hotspot
When you use Mobile Hotspot mode your BlackBerry device creates a Wi-Fi network that other Wi-Fi
enabled devices can connect to so that they can use the Internet through your mobile network
connection.
Sharing your Internet connection using Mobile Hotspot mode
This feature lets you connect your devices to the Internet anywhere that your BlackBerry device has a
mobile network connection, but because this feature uses the mobile network, you might incur high data
charges.
On some mobile networks, services such as email and BBM might not be available while Mobile Hotspot
mode is on.
After you set up Mobile Hotspot mode on your BlackBerry device, connecting to the mobile hotspot with
a Wi-Fi enabled device is a lot like connecting to any regular router.
Before you use Mobile Hotspot mode, read the latest safety and product information at
www.blackberry.com/docs/smartphones .
Use Mobile Hotspot mode to share your Internet connection
Before you turn on Mobile Hotspot mode, check that your BlackBerry device's connection to the mobile
network is on.
