STEP 1.
Open Settings. Tap the Settings icon, usually located on the Home screen, to open the Settings control panel.
STEP 2.
Tap Personal Hotspot. If you have enabled "Personal Hotspot" from your wireless provider, you will see the Personal Hotspot icon in the first group of settings.
- Note: if you have not enabled this service from your wireless provider, you must do so before proceeding. Visit your carrier's website, and find the service that best suits your needs and budget.
STEP 3.
Turn on Personal Hotspot. Tap the toggle switch at the very top of the "Personal Hotspot" control panel to enable Wi-Fi sharing.
STEP 4.
Set a password. The current password is listed in plain text. If you've just set up your service plan with your wireless provider, there will be a default password in place. To change it, tap the Wi-Fi password button, enter a new password, then click "Done." You can also just leave the default password as-is. Make sure you note it for future use.
