How to Tether Wi-Fi:
- Enable Mobile Hotspot: Most smartphones have a built-in mobile hotspot feature. You can usually find it in your phone's settings under "Network & internet" or "Wireless & networks."
- Connect Your PC: Once your mobile hotspot is activated, you can connect your PC to it by selecting the hotspot's name from the available Wi-Fi networks.
- Enter Password: You might need to enter a password to connect. This password is usually displayed on your phone's hotspot settings.
Benefits of Tethering:

Considerations:
