How to Use Your Android Phone as a Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot



1) Go to the Settings screen on your Android phone. You can get there by pressing the menu button on your device when you're on the home screen, then tapping "Settings".

2) At the Settings screen, tap the "Wireless & networks" option.

3) You should see an option for "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot". Click the
check mark beside it to turn on the hotspot and your phone will start acting like a wireless access point. (You should see a message in the notification bar when it's activated.)

You can change the default password, security level, router name (SSID), and also manage users connected wirelessly to your phone in the Wi-Fi hotspot settings.
