Sharing your phone's data connection
USB tethering and portable Wi-Fi hotspot are great features when there are no wireless 
connections available. You can share your phone's mobile data connection with a 
single computer via a USB cable (USB tethering). You can also share your phone's data 
connection with more than one device at a time by turning your phone into a portable 
Wi-Fi hotspot.
When your phone is sharing its data connection, an icon appears in the status bar and 
as an ongoing notification in the notifications drawer.
