How to Use Your Mobile Phone as a Hotspot

Just because you don’t have a Wi-Fi connection doesn’t mean you can’t work remotely. You can share your top TeleChoice broadband connection from your phone to your laptop. Plus, with so many unlimited TeleChoice plans, you can use your phone data for so much more than ever before. So, how do you set up your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot? Here’s a step by step guide from the team at TeleChoice Adelaide.  


What is a Wi-Fi Hotspot? 

Essentially, a hot spot is anywhere where people can access the internet using Wi-Fi.  Not many people know that your phone has the same capability and can create a Wi-Fi network to which you can connect your laptop or tablet. It’s also a great way to share your superior TeleChoice broadband connection with friends who haven’t signed up for leading TeleChoice plans.  

You can connect multiple devices and set up passwords much like your Wi-Fi network at home. Now, it’s just on the go! 

Depending on your operating system, the setup may differ slightly.  

How to Setup A Hotspot on Android:  

Step 1 – Open up your settings. 

Step 2 – Tap ‘Network & Internet’ 

Step 3 – Tap ‘Hotspot & Tethering’ 

Step 4 – Tap ‘Wi-Fi Hotspot’  

Step 5 – Switch it on.  

Your phone should then provide you with the network name and the password you can use to access the network.  

How to Setup A Hotspot on iOS:  

Step 1 – Open the Settings app. 

Step 2 – Tap ‘Cellular’ 

Step 3 – Tap ‘Personal Hotspot’ 

Step 4 – Switch it on.   

Again, your phone should show you the network name and password for access.  

Just like that, you’ll be able to share your connection with any device! It’s quick and efficient, especially when you need to do a quick spot of work outside of Wi-Fi access.  

At TeleChoice Adelaide, we’re all about giving you the very best tips to make the most of your digital experience.  

Switch to a TeleChoice broadband connection for the fastest, most reliable internet in Australia. Choose from a variety of TeleChoice plan that suits your needs and your budget. Contact TeleChoice Adelaide today, or visit us online now.
