How to set up tethering on an android phone

[Bad-Idea]

Thanks for the information. I'll have to play around with the phone to see if I can do this right lol.

hi @Bad-Idea 

To tether your Android phone to a tablet, go to your phone's Settings > Network & Internet > Hotspot & Tethering, then select "Wi-Fi Hotspot" and turn it on; on your tablet, connect to the newly created Wi-Fi network with the name and password displayed on your phone; this will essentially turn your phone into a mobile hotspot, allowing your tablet to access the internet through your phone's data connection.
