Final answer:
To connect to your own hotspot on a Samsung device, enable the feature through the Settings app, configure your network, and connect from the other device using the network details.
Step-by-step explanation:
To connect to your own hotspot on a Samsung phone, you typically need to activate the hotspot feature and then connect to it from another device. Here are the general steps:
- Start by opening the Settings app on your Samsung device.
- Tap on Connections (or Network & Internet in some versions) then Mobile Hotspot and Tethering.
- Tap on Mobile Hotspot to configure your hotspot's settings, such as the network name (SSID) and password. You might want to make a note of these details.
- Toggle the Mobile Hotspot switch on to activate the hotspot.
- With the hotspot active, use the other device that you want to connect to scan for Wi-Fi networks. Your Samsung device's network should appear in the list.
- Select your hotspot's network name on the other device and enter the password you set up.
Once connected, your other device will be able to access the internet through your Samsung phone's mobile network connection. Remember that using your phone as a hotspot can consume a significant amount of mobile data and battery power.
