Create a Mobile Hotspot on Samsung Devices
If you're on the go or out and about and need to quickly share your mobile data allowance - see the steps below on turning on the Mobile Hotspot option of your Samsung phone or tablet. If you would like to learn how to setup Auto Hotspot please click here for step-by-step instrctions.
You'll be able to connect up to 10 other devices to share your internet connectivity - but make sure to keep an eye on your mobile data usage. Using the Mobile hotspot will consume both battery life and the data allowance. Most Australian telcos allow mobile data tethering, but if you're having trouble using the Mobile Hotspot option, it may not be enabled on your phone plan. Get in touch with your service provider for information on data usage and any excess charges.
