Connecting to networks and devices

You can share your tablet’s mobile data connection with a single computer via a USB cable or via Bluetooth: USB 

tethering or Bluetooth tethering. You can also share your tablet’s data connection with up to eight devices at once, by 

turning your tablet into a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. (Not all carriers and tablets support these features.)
When your tablet is sharing its data connection, an icon appears in the Status bar and as an ongoing notification in the 

Notifications panel (see “Managing notifications” on page 18).

details, visit android.com/tether.

If your computer is running Windows 7 or a recent distribution of some flavors of Linux (such as Ubuntu), you typically 

don’t need to prepare your computer for tethering. But if you’re running an earlier version of Windows or another 

operating system, you may need to prepare your computer to establish a network connection via USB. For the most 

current information about which operating systems support USB tethering and how to configure them, visit
