Hotspot is an option that is provided by your carrier.


If your carrier is providing this option with their service, you will see it when you......


Tap Settings

Tap Cellular

Tap Personal Hotspot > Turn On


If you do not see these settings, your carrier is not providing a Hotspot option with your current service. Contact your carrier to see if a Hotspot option can be added to your service.
