Explanation of Solution

Tethering:

  • The Android cellular device has a setting called Tethering for sharing the mobile device internet connection with other connected devices like computer, tablet and laptop.
  • Tethering method can be possible in three ways:
    1. 1. Bluetooth – it is easy to set up Bluetooth Tethering because it does not require cable like USB Tethering, but only one connection is allowed.
    2. 2. Wireless LAN – this method is very convenient to set up and easy to connect multiple devices but it drains the device battery life.
    3. 3. USB cable – Similar to Bluetooth Tethering it also allows one-to-one internet connection but it needs USB cable. The best advantage of using a USB cable is there won’t be a battery life problem.
