One of the features that can be helpful if only one of your devices has an Internet connection is the mobile hotspot. When properly set up and enabled, it will turn your phone into a portable Wi-Fi hotspot, thus sharing its connection with other devices. 

Pre-requisites

Before anything else, make sure that your phone has:

  1. A good reception – poor signal will result in a very slow or unstable Internet connection.
  2. Enough credits – before you can share your connection, your account must be in good standing, or you have enough credits on your account if you’re on a prepaid plan.
  3. Enough battery – mobile hotspot will drain your phone’s battery quicker than normal
