Mobile HotSpot This feature allows you to turn your device into a Wi-Fi HotSpot. The feature works best when used in conjunction with HSPA+ (4G) data services (although 3G service can also be used). The Mobile HotSpot connectivity is a wireless version of this same functionality and allows you to provide Internet connectivity to multiple devices. Important! The Mobile HotSpot service can not be active at the same time as Wi-Fi. Please close your Wi-Fi connection prior to launching this service. Note: You must have a tethering plan on your account in order to use the Mobile HotSpot. You cannot use data on the device while using Mobile HotSpot. To activate the Mobile HotSpot service: 1. From the Home screen, press and then tap Settings ➔ More settings ➔ Tethering and Mobile HotSpot. 2. In a single motion touch and slide the Mobile HotSpot slider to the right to turn it on ON . 3. Read the on-screen notification regarding data use and tap OK. 4. If necessary, tap the Mobile HotSpot field to access the main application. 5. From the First time HotSpot configuration screen, tap the Network SSID field and then create a new Network SSID name. 6. Verify the Security field is set to WPA2 PSK. 7. Enter a new password then write it down. 8. Tap Save to store the new settings. 9. Confirm the Mobile AP service icon appears at the top of the screen.
