Three Ways to Share Internet:

There are three different ways for you. Here are they-

                            i.            USB sharing

                           ii.            Bluetooth sharing

        iii.            Wi-Fi Sharing

Step by Step Procedure:

Go to android’s ‘system setting’. Then scan with your eyes for tethering and portable hotspot, if it is not found select ‘more’. Then select ‘tethering and portable hotspot’.

Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot: Select the option ‘portable Wi-Fi hotspot’ to make Wi-Fi hotspot. If your data connection is on then everyone around you can use internet from your phone.

You can make fun with your friends using this feature. You can keep this feature on without data connection. Then, your friends see a Wi-Fi network is available and network is very strong. When they try to use it, they can’t because there is no data connection. Only you can understand the fact.

Bluetooth Tethering: If you want to share internet with a single person then Bluetooth tethering is suitable for you. The procedure is same. Bluetooth tethering is also found in ‘tethering and portable hotspot’.

USB Tethering: You may use a desktop PC without Bluetooth. You can share your Smartphone’s internet even with a desktop PC. I like to use internet using desktop browser. I think most of you prefer to use your phone’s internet in desktop. The procedure is also same for USB tethering. But something to remember-

       Ø Don’t turn on Mass storage/ USB storage after connecting with your computer

       Ø After connecting with PC, turn on USB tethering.

Instruction again for you-

System Setting→ More→ Tethering and Portable Hotspot→

The fourth option may found inside Wi-Fi hotspot option. Using the option you can configure your hotspot. You may give password or not, and can change the name of Wi-Fi.
