Share Your Mobile Data Connection as a
Wi-Fi Hotspot
You can share your phone’s data connection with other
devices by turning your phone into a portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
The feature needs data connection on a mobile network and
may result in data charges.
NOTE: When the portable Wi-Fi hotspot feature is enabled,
you cannot use your phone’s applications to access the

with it to start using the phone’s mobile data.
NOTE: To stop sharing your data connection, turn off Wi-Fi
hotspot.
