Wireless Connection to Use for Tablet and Phone Hotspot
To connect a tablet to a cellular phone as a hotspot, you would use Wi-Fi tethering. This is a wireless connection that allows the phone to share its mobile data connection with other devices, such as a tablet. When the Wi-Fi tethering feature is enabled on the phone, the tablet can connect to the phone's network and access the internet through the phone's cellular data.
Here's how to use Wi-Fi tethering:
- On the phone, go to settings and look for the option for portable hotspot or tethering.
- Enable portable hotspot or tethering.
- On the tablet, go to Wi-Fi settings and look for the hotspot network name (SSID) of the phone.
- Select the phone's hotspot network and enter the password if prompted.
- Once connected, the tablet should be able to access the internet through the phone's cellular data.
